this is Amber, i am not signed up yet, so i have to use Que's name. anyway.
oh my lands!!! as if i couldn't love and respect Sarah Palin more!! she was stellar!! she hit every nail right on the head, except when she hit joe biden on the thumb. ouch, that smarts. i do think it would be nice if she addresses the six pack of root beer drinkers as well as the six packers, but she did just great.
i can't remember who said it, i think Chris, but the addressing the president by his name alone has been a real sore spot for me as well. it shows just how disrespectful and arrogant the obama ticket is and i am truly disgusted. joe was doing it tonight, and i find that appalling. i personally love our President, he has had to make a lot of really tough decisions that have made him quite unpopular, but he did what was best for the love of this great country. i certainly don't agree with everything, but i give him the respect he does deserve and more importantly, he has earned. any president in his term would have ended unfavorable, in large part due to the 9/11 attacks. now had we had a president that sat there with his tail between his legs, like crybaby kitty mouse-gore or i don't know, how did i answer that question last time-kerry, things would have gotten a lot worse, and we would have ended up in war anyway, they just would not have made the call. the people would have had to demand it after the 2 or 3 attack. President Bush made the call that put us in charge of the war. and with any war, things would have gone out of control here and there, because of how unpredictable it is, but we have some amazing troops that have really taken care of us, they know what to do, and i am proud and grateful for everyone of those brave men and women that have put their lives on the line. and as for the ones who have not returned alive, i hope we never forget their sacrifice and bravery on behalf of a divided country. half that is grateful, and half that i would love to send to iraq and afganastan to see for themselves just what the situation truly is. if it weren't for our troops, those pompous belly-achers wouldn't be able to disagree with the leaders of our country. no one likes war, but it is what has given us our freedoms, and that is why the song says, ' where at least i know i'm free, and i wont forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.' now it is time for our nation to find a way to come together and proudly stand up, together, and defend her still today. no one deserves to get away with 9/11, and we need to show that. it is time to be proud to be Americans again.
see, this is why i have tuned out the politics, i just get so heated and stressed out. i can't bare the thought of obama winning, and i would have a hard time calling him president, which is what i just, hypocritically, criticized him for.
