The Debate.....

I am not a usually a political discussionist....(I know it's not a word, but as a kid I made up words... kinda of like comfort food.... it just is what it is). I digress. E is usually the big political talker in our house. He has taught me a lot over the years. How to really listen to the issues, and ask the right questions. How not to pick a party just because your parents did, or it's the cool thing to do (history making or not), and definitely how not to base your party pick on the fact that the current administration is being run by Alfred E Newman from MAD magazine. So I really paid attention to last nights debate, normally I would not watch a political debate by myself, but since E is on the road, I had to. Even if I did have 2 hours of Greys Anatomy season opener to watch! So I saddled up to the bed, and turn on the debate. My only feeling really about the whole thing was "uncomfortable". It felt like a friend had asked me to go with them to visit their smelly old grandpa in an old folks home. Someone I had never met, but out of respect for our elders you had to listen to every stupid story he told in it's entirety. I wanted to just take an ambien and make it all go away. I could hardly focus on Obama's answers as I was still pissed off that I was forced to listen to that stuff for the past few minutes.... it just annoyed the crap out of me!

I am obviously an Obama supporter, not because of history making or anything, that is just a bonus. But because I am about to loose my job because of the stupid mistakes of this current administration and we have the manchurian candidate (google it) in office, and McCain is the next one. Just do as I say kinda of guys, because they cannot think for themselves. And don't even get me started on Palin. That's like putting me on the freakin ticket! Oh wait I probably know more on foreign issues than she does. Just because Alaska borders Russia, does not give you foreign policy experience. That the fact that she would even try to spin that comment into something, shows you she has nothing to offer. I am truly looking forward to the VP debate next Thursday, and the good thing is E will be home for that one! I think I will make a nice dinner for him, and we can relax and enjoy the entertainment. The slaughter of so called intellect.

I am by no means an expert of political issues, but I just cannot see her running this country, because we all know McCain will not live through is first term. And lipstick or no lipstick, she is as qualified as I am.
