This is quite interesting

Body count. In the last six months

Chicago - 292 killed (murdered) Iraq - 221

Chicago is a combat zone.

Who is in charge?

The leadership in Illinois: Senator Barack Obama (Democrat)

Senator Dick Durbin (Democrat)

Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. (Democrat)

Governor. Rod Blogojevich (Democrat)

House leader Mike Madigan (Democrat)

Attorney General. Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike), (Democrat)

Mayor Richard M. Daley (son of former Mayor Richard J. Daley) (Democrat)

Of course they're all blaming each other, why? They can't blame
Republicans, there aren't any!

State pension fund $44 Billion in debt, worst in
country. Cook County (Chicago)

Sales tax 10.25% highest in country. (Look it up up if you want).

Chicago school system one of the worst in country, This is the political
culture that Obama comes from in Illinois.

And he says he is going to fix Washington politics?

Let’s leave him in Chicago to see if he can fix this before even think about Washington!!

because people have to hate soo much!

I am very saddened today! As I have said all along, I respect the fact that we all have the freedom to choose who we want to vote for. We should all be proud of that fact. Because we believe one way or the other does not make a person ignorant, or uneducated. So please back off the personal attacks and insults – it reflects poorly on you and hurts those who you are insulting. We should all respect each other both before and after this election. This has absolutely sickened me and I am really hurt.

I have a lot of beliefs that a lot of Americans may deem old-fashioned. In no way am I saying my beliefs are above others, just that these are MY opinions as a Christian conservative. I am in no way a perfect person, nor will I ever be. God knows I have made some really stupid decisions in my life in which I had to face the consequences.

OK so now I am just pissed and really bothered! So I gotta say something… Here’s the really pissed off me that is done with all this negativity!

I find it really sad that some people have resorted to such extreme hatred and borderline psychotic antics regarding this election. Please remember that we are all AMERICANS. NOONE, and I mean NOONE is above anyone! If you feel the need to tell us all how beneath you we are please go talk to yourself in the mirror because you’re making me sick, especially now that my stomach is so small!

They make it sound as though struggling through college makes someone beneath the rest of America, or not able to be Vice President. Isn’t that the point of America and the point of all the liberal antics… that ANYONE can succeed even if you come from nothing. And do you even realize that Palin even has a higher security clearance than Obama or McCain… Do you even know why? If you don’t then you really don’t know enough about her.

This really hurt me for many reasons!!! I personally happened to be an excellent test taker and did pretty good in school. But I do know there are a lot of people in America who couldn’t even get through college because they can’t take tests well, period. Look at my dad – the smartest man I know – he can calculate any equation you throw at him in his head in a split second no matter how large, tell you every single thing that’s ever happened throughout all of history, and just about knows every damn bit of useless information as well. He was honored with the opportunity to go to West Point, which almost all of us in America could NEVER do, nor get through it! He worked his ASS off everyday not only at his studies but all of his daily athletic activities, etc. for the ARMY. He STRUGGLED to make it through, but he did just barely. He is a genius, yet he barely got by West Point. Does that make him any less of a genius? Just go talk to him for a while, pick his brain and you will see the man has a brain beyond the encyclopedia. He sure as hell knows a HELL of a lot more about economics than most Americans! So I really take offense at anyone that makes statements like these!

I was attacked my sophomore year in college, and guess what – I barely even got straight C’s that year when I had never even received a C on a homework assignment ever… Does that make me less smart than others who got all A’s that year? Wow that’s REALLY judgemental and makes me understand what kind of people are making these statements. I struggled that year because I was depressed not because I was dumb. HELLO, I got all of my freshman year paid for because of academics, and my sophomore year was partially paid for. I was going to go to get my Ph. D. but life happened and plans had to be changed… Would I love to go back to school and get it – hell ya… Can I afford to do that Hell no.

I think no matter who you are you, as a woman, should be damn proud that FINALLY a women has been nominated for VP, whether you agree with anything she says. It’s a step in the right direction, and hopefully will give all other women the ability to be nominated from now on – republican or democrat! I find it exciting that Obama was nominated, even though only partially black/arab – its about time that we as Americans start utilizing all races and genders and show how equal we really are in this country. This will pave the way for more women, and races to run for office.

I just find it so weird when I see hatred to this extent, if Palin was really as bad you like to shout, you shouldn’t need to say anything about her at all. I find it sooo interesting that the same people who are sooooo worried about saving our environment, saving the whales, dolphins, and saving the children in Africa are the same ones screaming about SAVING the right to abortions… That seems weird… How can you be for life in Africa and against it here in the US? I personally do not believe in abortion, yet I have many friends who have had one or more. I worked a year in college at a crisis pregnancy center. I saw the effects having an abortion had on all those women, and it broke my heart, I cried almost everyday. I saw so many people come in for an ultrasound who were 5 or more months pregnant and go get an abortion right here in OKC, only to come back a few months later wanting yet another abortion.

I absolutely DO NOT BELIEVE in partial-birth abortions…. I studied that for my final project in a college class and it left me horrified and scarred for life. I would love to see all the pro-choice peeps out there go watch a partial birth abortion and stick that vacuum into the babys brain and suck it out and see the baby’s fingers squirming and going limp. I am sooooo not that person that will judge anyone who has had one, ask my friends. At 17 yrs of age I thought I was pregnant, but as upset as my parents were, they were by my side supporting me, making sure I knew if I was they would help me raise it. So please don’t say I haven’t been in that situation and have no idea what it feels like to maybe be pregnant as a teen – it was really scary, but I made that decision and I had to handle the consequences of my actions.

It’s funny because I have seen so many Democrats post stop the hate bulletins… Yet those are the same ones that ALWAYS post hate McCain/Palin stuff… Maybe they need to look at themselves first before they judge others. I am really bothered when I am sent videos that are edited soooo insanely it makes me start dry heaving its soo sick. Then it makes me really rethink what I think about them when they send things like this.

I almost feel its like my old boss when I was a 16 year old lifeguard. She hated me all summer and I had no clue why. When she left I was told it was because the very first day I said I wish I would just be laying out and not having to have a job, and she automatically judged me as a spoiled Edmond teen. I had no hope from then on because she had her mind set on what a spoiled brat I was she couldn’t even see who I really was, because that most certainly wasn’t me. Please don’t let your hatred blind you like that!

And PLEASE, BACK OFF my sister!! She is a surgeon who has been on her Trauma rotation and has to deal with life and death every minute of her 100+ hrs. she works every week. To have “friends” tear her apart for her conservative beliefs, when she had to turn around and call someone’s time of death the next minute, seriously… Please just leave her alone, she is already soo stressed out everyday, she doesn’t need this added stress. She is dealing with the things none of us can even imagine, nor even handle! If you feel the need to yell at her, please redirect that anger at me not her.

There are soo many people on here that have politely voiced their opinions on this election in nonthreatening, no belittling ways on both sides. Please think about that before you feel the need to send such horrible things out. I am friends with as many Democrats as I am Republicans, but they all respect my views as I do theirs. You might even learn a thing or two when you have a respectful political conversation with a member opposite your political standing.

Oh ya, and peeps let’s just all get along and stop all this hate, k? Cause I like being happy as often as possible! After 2 years of absolute horrific pain, back surgery and a year of bedrest, I try to keep life as positive as I can now… Thus why this has bothered me so much – life is way too short to not enjoy every moment. I just wanna be silly and laugh all the time with as many people as possible – please don’t ruin that for me :-) Ask anyone - I am a total goofball at almost all times, and would normally ignore these kinds of things!
