Lingo

Today I heard a snippet of a speech of Obama's. Don't worry; the context doesn't matter. Anyway he used a phrase that he and his wife use over and over: "... get it." As in "John McCain just doesn't get it." Or "You need someone who gets it." Gets what? I 'get it' when it comes to Obama - just say no.

This is kin to the phrase, "I'm just not feeling it." "I'm not feeling this video game right now." Or "I'm not feeling this dress." Well, I'm just not feeling Obama.

It's somewhat comforting that John McCain is a grown-up and isn't trying to relate to the kids all the time. Could you imagine him saying, "I'm just not feeling this immigration thing right now."
Obama needs a few more years around the grown-ups before he'll be ready for the top job.

The US Women's Soccer Team

Congratulations to out women's soccer team for taking the gold medal in Beijing last week at the Totalitarian Olympics. I congratulate all our medal winners, but the women's soccer team deserves a special mention. As they stood with their gold medals around their necks they actually sang our National Anthem as it played in honor of them. Of the events I watched where the US won gold medals no one knew ALL the words. I saw a "Oh say, can you see" here and there. But every member of the soccer team knew every word and they all sang. It touched me to the point of tearing up. To me this said that their win was for the country as well as the team. It also showed pride in our great country. Our country truly is the "land of the free and the home of the brave." Congratulations and God bless you!

I Am Not a Racist

Contrary to what liberals are saying, I am not voting for Barack Obama because I'm a racist. I'm not voting for him because he is a radical to the left of the far left wing of the Democrat party. Also based on statements made by Barack and especially Michelle Obama I believe he is a Marxist. Socialism solves not one problem. It's too bad they didn't learn the lessons from the decades of the Union of the Soviet Socialist Republic.
