I had to chat today with a guy who did not like the fact that I am a John McCain supporter. He knows this from my facebook profile. He seems to think that anyone who votes for John McCain is a brainwashed moron who eats the party line for breakfast. How annoying is that. VERY! God forbid anyone have an opinion different from others, it's simply amazing. I cannot argue with someone who dismisses everything McCain has done throughout his adult life without even knowing about it. I don't know much about Obama's life, but I am learning. I will still vote for McCain because he is my hero, yes, as a POW in Vietnam, yes, because he has a very high IQ, and yes, because he is a smart ass survivor who isn't afraid to say his friends are wrong. You can't beat that for character. Obama may be a good guy, he certainly seems like it, but he is more like Jimmy Carter to me, too inexperienced to be President, but one day will be fabulous, just like Carter was too naive back then and is wonderful now.
Anyway, keep in mind that some people really do like some of the things that Bush has done. I was against the war, but now that we are there we cannot leave. And it's not the only thing Bush did in 8 years, though you wouldn't know that from the media. It helps to read a lot and pay attention instead of listing the punch lines flying around today.
