Politics

The election is in two weeks and political Jabber is at it's peak. I stay away from anyone who wants to talk about the candidates. I suppose it is because I am not good at debating the issues in polite conversation and it would not be polite conversation for me to have bestowed on me another's comments on how terrific John Kerry is. I am a Republican and I support President Bush. I have never even considered the Democratic party as something that would be acceptable to me and grew more intensely disgusted with this party when Bill Clinton was elected. It is hard for me to say though which Clinton disgusts me most......Bill or Hillary. As far as I am concerned they are both a plague on society.

Having such strong feelings against one particular party makes it impossible for me to listen to anyone who might be pro Kerry. I do not have the tolerance to listen to someone sing his praises to me or try to convince me to vote for him. I had someone come into my office last week and ask "who ya going to vote for? Kerry?" Obviously this person, though he knows me fairly well, had no idea what a loaded question that was or how it made my skin crawl. I looked at him like he was out of his flipping mind! I laughed in an evil little chuckle and said firmly.......NO! At that point he wanted to talk about my political views.........."Don't go there dude" is what he heard from me......This guy was about 5 beers short of a six pack because he kept on asking, Why? Why? Why? This is the point where I get totally fed up and just let them have it........I say "What did you not understand about the fact that I DO NOT want to discuss politics with you?" then I get the "Well, well, I don't understand why not?" Because I don't like John Kerry, and refuse to hear your blatant, uneducated promotion of him. I wouldn't invade your office space and tell you how fabulous Bush is, so don't come into mine and try to convince me that Kerry is the better candidate." By looking at him you would have thought I had just shot him. I have a rule (kinda) that I follow so I don't get anyone too upset with me.........If it is not going to hurt your feelings, I will say it.....If my words to you are going to hurt you emotionally, I will not utter them. Apparently I have not fine tuned this rule........Because I think this person was upset about my refusal to discuss this topic with them.........Which if you ask me is totally asinine because, I did not invited him into my office and I certainly did not bring up politics.....So, go lick your wounds some where else and do not sit here and cry to me because you feel that I was to offensive, offensive in my dictionary would be to call you a looser and kick you immediately out of my office.........Ok so that may be bitchy but hey....... When I tell you not to go there, listen to me the first time. Don't try to question me when you can clearly tell I have strong feelings on the subject and my refusal to discuss them with you is clearly in your best interest.......Enough said.

There is a link to a blog written by a girl named Jen..........Jen in my book ROCKS! She wrote this one post about another hurricane..........I have added it to this post.........

New Hurricane Advisory
The National Weather Service has issued a warning for yet another catastrophic hurricane following on the heels of Charley, Ivan and Jeanne. The path of this hurricane zigs and zags, and is therefore highly unpredictable. Experts predict that this one will cause the most damage to the United States that we have experienced in four years.

They are naming this one Hurricane Kerry.

Be advised, the only way for citizens to protect themselves is by being behind a Bush
