John McCain is My Homeboy!
So it's been a while since I blogged... something about having a baby will often cut short your time for mindless activity, but now that Sage is 3 months old, I'm baaaa-aaack.
One thing that's been on my mind for a while now and I swore I would blog about was the upcoming election. Now, I am NOT very vocal politically and never have been. I usually keep my views to myself. I always thought it was impolite to talk about two things: how much money you make, and your views on politics. I never wanted to give my opinion for fear it would make someone else feel bad about a candidate who they may be passionate about.
This time around, all bets are off.
I've become tired of hearing how amazing Barack Obama is, and how John McCain is almost villanous. God help you if you happen to say you are supporting McCain! It's almost "politically incorrect" to do so. People come back at you with all kinds of crap and make you feel about 2 inches tall. I'm tired of it. I don't like Obama and won't vote for him for many, many reasons. Most of all I'm amazed that otherwise intelligent people are falling for his song and dance, but, I digress...
Most people have no clue what Obama plans to do once in office. There was a very enlightening article in the Wall Street Journal last week, and I urge you to read it:

This article confirmed what I already suspected about Obama's master plan! I say, no thanks to more taxes. Uncle Sam and I have a neat little arrangement whereby I hand him about half of whatever we make. It's worked out fine for years now, but it's time to stop knocking on my door for more money, expecting higher income earners to solve all the nations problems while absolving those who make less money as if to say they bear no responsibility.
So, I now plan to be more vocally supportive of McCain. I think part of his problem is that too many people like myself are being shoved into the closet because we're not on the Obama bandwagon. Heck, I might even get some of those tacky lawn signs that I always make fun of.
