BethFromVA 5 Posted November 2, 2008 For me, other than message boards, I don't talk politics with anybody. They could be any form or fashion and I wouldn't really know or care. My boss, I know, is liberal, and I only know this because she came bounding in and singing about how she just voted for Obama. :rolleyes2: She has tried to pull me into conversations about who I will vote for, and I just won't go there.

gadgetlady 4 Posted November 2, 2008 Here's a few quotes before I run out the door for dinner. Enjoy! "The marvel of all history is the patience with which men and women submit to burdens unnecessarily laid upon them by their governments." -George Washington "Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." -George Washington "I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them." -Thomas Jefferson "Government is not a solution to our problem, government is the problem." -Ronald Reagan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gadget, seriously - you could kill me but it won't change the need for change in this country. You fear Obama and I fear McCain and Palin (esp). You can post a direct quote from whomever you like but I've voted already so you're beating a dead horse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newhope4me 0 Posted November 3, 2008 I didn't read through all the posts, only the first and last page, however, I am responding to the original post. I will do what I always do...I will support our country! Yes, I have been called naive or what have you, but honestly, what does having our the people of our country being divided do for us? We are a military family and whoever is in that position is our Commander in Chief. What my husband is ordered to do, he must do. My husband does not follow politics, since it is easier for him to follow orders if he doesn't know whether or not he disagrees with who is giving the orders. I vote for whom I believe is the best choice. Then whoever is elected, is who is elected; there is no changing that for at least 4 years. No amount of arguing, complaining or being miserable is going to change that. How it seemed we all pulled together after 9/11, how it seemed we were again "one nation indivisible..." that's what I wish we could be, without a tragedy to make it happen.

gadgetlady 4 Posted November 3, 2008 It's always interesting to hear what people say when they think they're off the record and they really aren't. And they accuse conservatives of hateful speech? Watch this (caution: offensive language herein): [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym0nyGyhjxw]YouTube - Obama-Supporting Libtalker Wants Joe The Plumber 'Dead'[/ame] Does anyone honestly think if McCain wins that someone like this will learn to "get along" with the "opposition"?
