Not to offend any of my Repub friends (ahem, Abby), but Sarah Palin is a train wreck. She's just. not. ready.
(Steve's offended.)
Okay, funny. I didn't think it was working when I tried to embed. But it was, and I'm leaving it. Lots of Sarah Palins for your viewing pleasure.

P.S. Call me today on my cell.
I don't think anyone needs to ever make personal attacks based on political views (as in: you're so dumb if you believe fill-in-the-blank OR you misunderstand your own religious beliefs if you vote for that person), nor do I think anyone needs to ever take someone else's political views personally (as in: that person doesn't want fill-in-the-blank to be elected, but I do, so that person is implying there's something wrong with me).
My sophomore year in college, I knew a guy who used the expression "train wreck" to describe everything in a whole range of spectrum of bad: from truly horrific to mildly unpleasant. It was sort of humorous when he would use it for things when clearly the expression didn't seem appropriate. I used it here as an inside joke with myself. If you think that instead I should go pray, then I am humbled by your suggestion. Please rest assured that I pray quite regularly.
Fancy Nancy, no announcements.
I am glad that a simple person like Palin can show us regular people can actually make the government of the people by the people and for the people! Why maybe even the one new voice to make changes in the areas where they are needed!
Here is a link on where each candidate stands relating to moral choices.
http://www.afa.net/08VG/index.html
Maybe just consider a moral compass for your vote(s) and comments!
The First Presidency has asked us to make a moral stand as the Saviour has as well. Should hear some more on Saturday and Sunday.
With that thought in mind would you consider Obama knowing he is a bi-sexual and has supported gay marriage openly?
Personally, I would recommend him as a leader for Sodom and Gomorah..Wait that is where we are already living may as well help the process along!
All of you are aware that there is plenty of homosexuality openly in the media and advertising almost everywhere. Your children are exposed to it daily due to the choices of those who manage our corrupt media.
Homosexuality is open rebellion against God, the state and the perpetuation of the human race.
McCain seems to have repented of his sins as aweful as they were. Obama appears to still embrace his.
Anonymous, would you like a simple person with a new voice in medicine to perform your child's lung transplant, or would you prefer someone who had some intellect and some serious medical training, maybe graduated at the top of her medical school class?
What happens if McCain wins and drops dead in May? (William Henry Harrison lasted 31 days in office.) Can you really imagine this woman leading our nation through maybe the most critical time in our history since WWII?
Whatever you think about Obama and his policies, if you saw the debate on Friday you can't doubt his raw ability to handle the job, 85% of which is leadership and behaving presidentially.
I cannot wait for there to be a woman president (ideally not Hillary Clinton) some day, but if it turns out to be Palin, I'm moving to New Zealand, so help me Moose, and Moose help the rest of you poor saps.
BTW, check out Kathleen Parker in the National Review. There's no shortage of voices across the political spectrum who think she's a terrible and dangerous choice for this country.
Did you know John McCain holds the Navy record for murdering the most puppies in a four-hour period?
I have not made all of the anonymous comments so why would I take credit for all of them? But I take credit for the one(s) that I posted.
I posted the moral choices link that shows where each party stands based on their comments, recorded votes while in office with supporting links for your research as they are not hearsay.
Palin may not seem as smart as some others may claim as she speaks, but she seems to be in the running as Vice President and it is currently running a state larger than most of the continental US. Did I mention all of us are not likely running even the smallest city? Maybe the intelligence of the current blog poster is self perceived as so high that one may consider themself far above or better than those who are slow of speech? Moses was slow of speech - he did more than ok with some help! A regular person who isn’t a Harvard graduate, debate team, raised with the most worldly wealth, in the correct circles of money and the influential elite or the status quo “in group” would seem refreshing to the majority of Americans or so one might be inclined to think!
If you are offended by Obamas' sexual orientation I apologize for not currently being able to share the source, but if you check his records and where he stands on the matters of morals, you may be able to figure it out for yourself without the proof yet! Or maybe not! The government source can't be shared at this time. Sorry for getting too emotional and telling why I won't support him to friends.
While most of you sleep though, I can tell you this, California, Florida and Arizona are all proposing amendments, without any presidential candidates endorsement, homosexual marriage or traditional marriage to be decided as part of the State constitutions in November! If the people sit back quietly and do nothing the consequences will be grevious..
The Prophet has called all members of the Church in these three states to make a moral stand for traditional marriage and whichever candidates support it. Here is one church link the members have been requested to read:
http://newsroom.lds.org/ldsnewsroom/eng/commentary/the-divine-institution-of-marriage
I am making my stand without reservation and merely shared with friends.
Dear Tom,
I agree and feel that allegiance to only party instead of morals is truly foolish. I am an independent that votes based on my knowledge of the moral stance of each individual running and all other facts and information I can gather from known reliable military, government and other resources (sometimes the news but they are shady and very biased at best.) I have always voted independently but this year both parties have some real drawbacks!
For all who wish to try this I was amazed at how it worked out:
If you want to see who you should vote for based on who you truly
agree with, take the test at the following ABC News web site. It is
13 questions with the two candidate's answers. Without telling you who said what, you choose which answer you agree with most. After selecting answers for these 13 questions, the results show you who you actually agree with.

Please use your name
Please don't assume that I don't understand my own belief system
Thanks. Kisses.
Always fun to see Swift-boating at work in our democracy!
I am making a moral stance: I am voting for the man who has one wife, who didn't leave his wife for a younger model.
I am voting for the man who does NOT support gay marriage and who doesn't like abortion either but recognizes, as does the church, that there are exceptions.
"I do not believe gay marriage should be legal" Huh. Obama quote.
And after eight years of a "conservative" and "moral" administration, we have the largest debt, the biggest expansion of the federal government, foreign entanglements, legal gay marriage, legal abortion, pending bail-outs of the free market, tell me, can you as a conservative countenance eight more years of that kind of conservatism?
It's mind-boggling.
I didn't want her to be a train wreck because it's embarrassing as a woman to be told that she's the most qualified candidate for the job. It's INSULTING.
Christine Todd Whitman?
Olympia Snow? No, Palin.
It didn't necessarily matter to me that she and I feel differently on most issues, I wanted to respect her for being a public servant we can be proud of.
Her lack of seasoning is an embarrassment and a slap in the face.
It's not about line upon line of experience, checking the boxes, it's about judgment, the ability to think through issues and present a coherent view. She has been unable to show us that she's capable of handling the pressure and the scrutiny.
If she can't handle KATIE COURIC then what the name of all that is holy is she going to do in a room with Vladimir Putin? Let him know that she'll "get back" to him?
It's hardly fair to her, she wasn't ready. In a few more years? Maybe. Now? In this election? With this president (who should have been the Repub candidate in 2000 by the way) who will be the oldest we've ever elected? Who has lingering health issues? Not on your life, not on my life, and not on my babies lives.
Homosexuality is open rebellion against God
the church (via anonymous):
The Church’s opposition to same-sex marriage neither constitutes nor condones any kind of hostility towards homosexual men and women.
hmmm..
I think this video says it all, sadly. I just wonder if the right people are watching/reading/reflecting!
