So, I have actually been reading some news about the election (ugh). Now I rarely write about political stuff, but this was…interesting. Several articles I have been reading allow comments by readers and the name calling is very one-sided…by the Obama supporters. If I choose to support McCain (and unfortunately I do – I wanted Huckabee), I am apparently…
-people who believe this nonsense
-right wing neocon religious nuts
-right-wingers
-people with such low IQs
-these people are so stupid
-right wing republican neo-con
-spectacularly out of touch
-neocon partisan hack liars
-these wacked out people
-Christian extremist
I’ve noticed ‘neocon’ shows up a lot…whatever a neocon is…I wasn’t sure.
I looked up the definition for ‘neo’. It means new. I am assuming that ‘con’ is short for conservative. Therefore neocon means new conservative?? Okay then.
The other thing that I apparently am is someone who believes in a fairy tale. Here are a few comments from those same articles…
-People who live their life around such beliefs are not making rational, logical decisions.
-Religion is an irrational belief in imaginary beings.
-It’s just a horrible collection of stories used to control people.
-I’m really tired of this pandering to believers of superstition and the supernatural.
-I feel sorry for the millions of deeply religious people in the world.
Well…you know me, lol.

Hi Micki. :)
Caught up with your bloggy posts. :)
Jason would have LOVED the LOTR marathon.
I wanted Huckabee too. Not too thrilled with McCain. *sigh* God bless
