I'm glad we got that straight

I found this and was so surprised. Not at the content, but because I've conducted some of the same kind of surveys with people here and there, just in conversation, and found it so amusing. I didn't know someone had taken it to the next level and aired them. It's short and entertaining, so take a listen. (Don't be startled by the picture or voice...it's not foul or anything.)

I'll grant you this, it may be the case for both sides...but in my personal and unscientific experiments, I've found that there are far more on one side who are "riding the wave" you might say without knowing what's in the water beneath them. That's dangerous surfing, you know.

Get informed. Vote. Good things. Just know what you're voting for.

(Thanks, MH!)

  1. Yikes! That is messed up. Some very confused people out there.

  2. Unfortunately, most people don't really research either candidate very thoroughly, on either side. They take what's said on TV and accept that it's the truth. Research is part of the political process! :)

  3. that would be really funny if the stakes weren't so very serious....one of the numerous reasons why our country is heading south - the uninformed citizen...

  4. Wow, that is sad. I wonder what they would have said if after those questions if they had told the people that they actually just said they were in favor of what McCain stands for. Wonder if they would have flipped and stuck with Obama.
    You know what I was thinking about when I was watching this. These people are picking a president the same way I pick a dentist. Check out their photo. If they look nice then I go with them. I mean cause no one wants a crazy looking dentist:-) I figure if they went to school for it it will be fine, but voting for someone is such a different issue.
    They don't have to have been educated for any one particular thing. They just have to get our vote. Which is why it is so important to know where they stand on the issues.
    Tuesday is going to be a crazy day!!!

  5. Good advice, RK: educate yourselves. Don't take the media's word; they have a problem with truth.

    Even fewer people know we have more than 2 legal, viable political parties in America. People say they want another option and don't realize that they do have one!

    Remember In His Steps? What would Jesus do?

  6. I've meet some pretty bad "sheep" church goers as well. They would do anything a pastor tells them too "just because." So i think when you select a small population, you manipulate the results as any good statistics person would tell you. Come on, really.

  7. I saw this one someone else's blog last week and laughed the whole way through! I couldn't believe those people who were interviewed as being for Obama. Especially 2 out of the 3 being asked, so if he's elected you wouldn't have any problem with Palin being VP? and their responses "oh no, not at all" You think he made a good choice picking her? "yes definitely" LOL

Oh happy day, Less question mark!

As a follow up to yesterday's post, I got word today that we will NOT be assigned to the new guy, but we will have an experienced coordinator after all. I feel SO much better. I also learned some other info today that made me think I still have some kinks to work out, so I'll be taking care of that this next week. I'll be SO glad when this transition/IEP stuff is behind us. I want to do the very best I can, but there's part of me who wants to just hide and let it all happen without me.

31 for 21: What to say

I have encountered plenty of people who ask "How old is she?" when Braska and I are out together here and there. They always guess her age about 5 months younger than she is, but that's ok, since that's what size she is. I have said several times that I can imagine it will bother me a bit more, although still not a huge deal, when she turns one next month and I see their reaction to that, as she still is in her car seat/carrier when we're in a restaurant or in a store since she doesn't sit up. Today, I met some friends for brunch. The waitress was a nice enough, very young girl, and she started cooing at Braska right away. That's nice. I don't mind, Braska likes the attention, and I'm proud of my cutie. The waitress asked her age, and I told her 11 months. She then said, "But she's not walking yet?" as she noticed that she was up to the table in her car seat/carrier. I just agreed and said, "Not yet." She said she h

Was there a line??

I assume that you went to vote, either today or earlier if possible. I expect that of you, know that straight up. How long did you wait in line?? And throw in the state you voted in, just for fun. I'm really curious if all areas have a big wait or if it's just the more congested ones. I voted Friday absentee/in person, and we waited about 15 mins or so. It moved VERY fast for a big line. There's just one place in our very populated county to do the absentee/in person voting, and it wasn't bad at all for what I thought it might be. If you haven't, GO VOTE people... again, please just know what you're voting for, either way. You may just have to live with your choice. God Bless America!!
