Let's get uncomfortable.

Politics! The great divider and uniter! Divides friends and family, but gives you new friends and family with similar beliefs. Just joshing, well in my case, I still love people even if I don't understand their choices or find them irresponsible. I am so excited, like everyone else!, about this election!! I really am praying that Obama wins, but since I am a middle class educated person, that is kinda a no brainer. I still can't believe how many people are voting for McCain. It makes me sick thinking what will happen if he wins. I went to see Obama last night, with 22,000 of my un-closest friends. It was inspiring to listen to words which should have been spoken years ago and to feel that someone understands my point of view and how to change the United States. Now I'm not an idealist by any means and I know change will not happen over night and not everything he says is 100% granteed to happen. But I can not handle another person with Bush's world-view! I mean come on!! How can you help the rich get richer? Ignore the poor? Spend billions on a pointless war? Just be so dense to the real issues? It just makes no sense to me... People voted for Bush again because they thought he could fix the problems he got us into and they will vote for McCain for the same reason. and look what that has gotten us!!

ok enough of that I guess. ha. It's actually funny because going to a conservative Christian college is what turned me towards the liberal side. I was always in the middle, considering myself a "red letter Christian". This pretty much means when I vote and think about the issues, I think of the red words in the Bible, the ones spoken by Jesus. Like, "Love your neighbors, Do not kill, turn the other check," which is why I'm against the death penalty. See a simple way of voting, well for social issues. At Geneva I truly learned the difference between conservative and liberal economics, which really pushed me towards the liberal side of things. Even though I still an independent and kinda middle of the road gal.

Ok this is a really long post and wasn't meant to be.

In real life news, I finished writing my IEP!! :D Bad news: My car is starting to act crazy... :/
