Disappointment

Someone stole our McCain Palin sign. My husband is so upset. I am so disappointed. I guess even one display of thinking outside the box can't be tolerated. I guess, in this era of diversity, the only diverse that is accepted is theirs. Our diverse thoughts and lifestyles are examples of what cannot be tolerated in the era of tolerance.



I am so disappointed in our world. We live in dangerous times.



Okay! now that that's off my chest. Let me say this.......Go McCain!!!!! We went out to dinner on Sunday night..it was the husband's birthday. We went to a Japanese place that has hibachi grills or whatever they're called. There were four of us and we sat at a table with three young women. They were in their late 20's and early 30's.... true young'uns. At some point in time, they, not we, brought up the election. We were reluctant to get into it since we had preconceived notions of where their loyalties would be. We shouldn't have worried. They are voting for McCain too. Imagine that? Here we are in the belly of the D-Beast and 7 of us at one table are bucking the party line.

My disappointment is waning and the times seem less dangerous. We capitalists will just go underground and when the Iron Curtain falls here in the land of the used to be free...why we will go to the trenches and broadcast our messages over Radio Free America. I will cultivate my Marlene Dietrich accent and sing, "Fallinggg in luff again, never, vanted tto, kahnt elp ittt". Cabaret was always my favorite musical...Things will be ok.

I know, I know, there is something wrong with me.

I don't think there is anything wrong with you.

We've seen some signs actually change in our neighborhood--not "switched" but for real. One day the sign says ObamabinBiden and the next day it says McCain & Palin. I kept waiting for them to be changed back. Hmmmm...did they see the light?

I did see someone graffiti-ed a NObama sign. It was a huge one. It was pretty clever--but at the same time I thought--doesn't make us appear any better to act like them.

Ah well...I am really praying hard right now. God can do anything.
