When I registered to vote, I was so proud to mark myself as a member of the Republican Party. I was proud to carry my voter’s registration card in my wallet and I was proud to vote for George W. Bush. Both times. When I renewed my driver’s license, I decided to change my partyContinue reading “I stand with them.”

How to Stimulate the Economy…or Just Your Brain
Yesterday as I was eating lunch, I flipped on Fox News to see what was going on in the world. Apparently, the economy’s in the crapper. If I didn’t know it from the news ticker on the bottom of my TV screen, surely each and every story would have clued me in. I got toContinue reading “How to Stimulate the Economy…or Just Your Brain”
McCain’s Shrewd VP Pick – “Coldest State/Hottest Governor”
My apathy has turned into excitement! Whether you’re routing for Obama or McCain, you have to admit that it’s been an interesting week in politics. As I watched Barack Obama speak at the Democratic National Convention last night, I couldn’t belp but cry a little. Not beacuse I was moved by his speech, but byContinue reading “McCain’s Shrewd VP Pick – “Coldest State/Hottest Governor””
Open Letter to John McCain’s Campaign
To John McCain’s Campaign HQ: I’m an Independent Voter, who supports John McCain. I’ve already contacted McCain’s local campaign office to see about helping with the campaign.

I Went Indie
Yup, now I’m indie. I made the decision a lot time ago, but finally executed it today when I got picture taken for my new driver’s license.

The McCain Girls vs. The Obama Girl vs. The Hillary Kid
I don’t know if you’ve heard of the “McCain Girls”–a trio of ladies who have made two videos in support McCain (read more) and the “The Obama Girl” who seems to have a thing for Barack Obama. The McCain Girls, who sing “Raining McCain” and “Here Comes McCain Again” are part of the humor websiteContinue reading “The McCain Girls vs. The Obama Girl vs. The Hillary Kid”
Faith Beyond Politics
Maybe I’m not a horrible Christian after all. According to the Barna Group, born-again Christians are less likely to vote for Republican candidates. The group says that if the election were held today, more Christians would vote for the Democratic Party Presidential nominee, even if it was Hillary Clinton!!! (Read study here and thanks toContinue reading “Faith Beyond Politics”
Pretend You Matter & Bilary’s A’Coming
AHHH! It’s Bilary! The Morning Call, the area’s local newspaper, is running a straw poll cleverly called “Pretend You Matter!” It’s funny because it’s true. As much as young people are urged to “rock the vote”, if young Pennsylvanians head out to vote in the state presidential primary on April 22, it probably won’t makeContinue reading “Pretend You Matter & Bilary’s A’Coming”
