What is it about politics that turns ordinarily sane individuals into raving lunatics? I thought that once we were done with our caucus season here in Iowa that we could enjoy a reprieve, but though things have improved, (the phone doesn't always ring at mealtime, and the hateful commercials are gone, for a while), the yammering of who's the biggest jerk, and who should be nominated for sainthood continues...ugh!!!
Personally I don't believe that a truly honest person can get anywhere in the political world, so even the folks I like enough to vote for better not expect me to blindly follow them anywhere! One of the most frustrating things to me is the fact that it's virtually impossible to have a reasonable discussion with a person who has a different opinion during this insanity. There are so many self-righteous folks out there preaching hatred in the name of God, that really gets me fired up! The God I believe in loves all of his/her children and encourages us to TRY to do the same, not just bicker and finger point!
Anywho, as Forrest Gump would say, "That's all I have to say about that." Which in this case means that's all I'm going to say about that...for now, but I could say PLENTY more hahaha!
One final note, thank-you President Obama for the part of your health care plan that extended the age of coverage for adult children to 26! Of our 4 kids in that age group, only one of them has a job that provides health insurance at this time, it's very comforting to know they are still covered under our plan, so thank-you again!
