The Debate

What did you think of it? I was so pissed off that McCain REFUSED to even look at Obama and kept addressing him like he wasn't even there!!! I'm glad Obama didn't let it ruffle him though, and I loved how strong he was when he would break in over McCain's sound bytes to contradict him or point out the untruths he was spreading. I mean, really, if you can't even look your opponent in the eye, how are you going to face down aggressive world leaders and get them to cooperate with you? He was so damn condescending!

I didn't see the very end (I ti-voed it since we were all at a Boy Scouts event last night) and I was just so tired I couldn't last. So I have no idea if they shook hands or just spit at each other from across the room when it was over.

I just wish they would drag that dingbat Palin out there and let Biden rip into her. Although I was a bit horrified when he made that awful gaffe about The Great Depression, FDR and televsion (YIKES!). He makes me nervous still since I think his mouth is a bit of a loose cannon. He may have a good voting record in the Senate, but he definitely has the OMIF condition (Open Mouth, Insert Foot). Not to be confused with OMFG, though OMIF can definitely result in people saying OMFG. But I digress. Although I can certainly relate to this quality on a personal level, it is not a trait I desire in our Vice President (can you say Dan Quayle?). I actually think Sara Palin is like the female Quayle but I can't decide which one of them is worse.

And why in the HELL would white women be such great fans of hers? What, are we all a bunch of rednecks now? (I mean honestly, Track, Trig, WTF is that?) Nothing against rednecks, hell I used to be married to one, but we've been living under a YeeHaw president for the last 8 years and that has been a disaster. She is the embodiment of what Republican men think women are....something pretty to look at, not overly intelligent but can put a few sentences together so you can trot them out at cocktail parties to make your husband look good, and if you can hunt and chew tobacco, well, that's just a bonus, by God.

And what about her making people who were raped pay for their own rape kits at the hospital? Wake up women!! This chick is not for us in any way, shape or form. And you "PUMAs" better get off your high horse and get a clue. If I had enough money left in my monthly budget, I'd loan you the money so you could buy a new brain.

So anyway, I know I haven't been online in like FOREVER, not even to read blogs. I just have been so busy with teaching, school, kids' events, etc. and I am also supposed to be studying for my test. Thanks to those who haven't forgotten me and drop by just to say hi. I'm still here, I'm doing well, just offline life seems to have taken over. And that's a good thing. I probably won't blog except like once a month or if I'm really worked up over something. Just not enough hours in the day....

Besides, I'm too busy yelling at my tv every time The View comes on. But that's another blog entry....
