So, I've been watching all of the hullaballoo with the circus that we, in the United States, like to call our presidential election. It's kind of funny watching the double standards taking place over the nomination of Republican vice presidential nominee, Sarah Palin.
I've never seen, until now, a lot of Democrats say, "A woman should stay home and take care of her kids." It's kind of funny, actually. My mom, a hard-line Democrat, has told me that she can't understand why Sarah Palin wants to have a job such as vice president when she has five kids, one of which is a pregnant teenager and one of which has Downs Syndrome. But, she has no problem with Nancy Pelosi having five children and being Speaker of the House of Representatives. That makes no sense to me.
I still haven't decided who I'm going to vote for this year. But, I know that I can't, with a clear conscience, vote for John McCain because he's not anti-abortion (I will not call them pro-lifers because the term has been hijacked by people who are anti-death penalty yet pro-abortion.). And, I don't want to vote for him on the off chance that he will die while in office and Sarah Palin will take over as president. Although he's 72 years old and battled cancer several times, there's no guarantee that he would not live out his four year term.
I definitely will not be voting for Obama. That guy scares me half to death.
