My Apologies!
Mood:
irritated
Now Playing: Down with Electoral College!
Topic: Election
First I would like to apologize for not updating my weblog, I have been extremely busy, not to mention tired of sitting in front of this computer.
To update everyone, My vacation down the Oregon coast was Very WET, and we made it down to the Giant Seqoias in California. To make a long story short, It was one of the best Vacations I had ever had, and my son loved it even though we didn't make it to Crater Lake because of a snow storm in the mountains. I would not trade it for anything, and even though there were issues, I can't complain.
Now to explain why I am irritated. I live in the state of Washington, where the polls are saying Kerry will most likely win the state. This means that my Vote does not matter. Because of the Electoral Collage, all votes will go to whomever gets the majority vote, which voids my vote, or basicly changes it to Kerry if he gets the majority.
Yes, I have already voted, by absenty ballot, and have voted for Bush, because I beleive Kerrys so called plan, will hurt our economy, cause a loss of jobs, and make us weaker on foriegn policy. He is a weak man, and if he pulls our troops out of Iraq, and Afghanistan, these terrorist organizations will declare victory over these weak Infidels.
Things will get worse, both overseas, and here in our own country. There are still terrorist cells in this country, just waiting until our government retreats from the tough stand we have taken in the world.
If we elect a weak man to office, I can guarantee you that there will be more attacks inside our country. And even though Bush has been steadfast in his pursuit for these terrorists, I would not be surprised if there is an attack in the next 5 days, that will influence this election. Look at what they have accomplished in Spain, changing that election, and forcing other countries to pull out their troops from Iraq by kidnapping and beheading civilians trying to help rebuild that country.
Even if my vote does not count because of this Electoral Collage, I hope that I can Make people realize that this country will be safer with Bush in Office. Look at Reagan. Did he create a coalition to attack Libya. No. He informed our allies what he was doing, and informed other countries, like Russia, about this action. The United States does NOT have to ask anyone for permission to protect itself, both physically and economically.
People need to realize that these terrorists will keep coming at us, because they believe we are the enemy, and infidels.
Does anyone remember that just before the September 11th attacks, there was an aid organization being held in Afghanistan, accused of trying to corrupt the citizens of Afghanistan by preaching Christianity? This is part of the reason they hate us, because they believe we are sinners in the eyes of god.
I have a Muslim freind that I talk with on the internet, and with talking to them, we both have seen that our beliefs are similar, but that there are some differences, and we both accept the others beliefs.
Muslim People are not our enemy, but fanatics, like we have seen in our own country. David Koresh, Timithy McVeigh, and some of these American Citizens that were fighting with the Taliban.
Again, I apologize. I have been rambeling on, and the whole point I have been trying to raise is which Man do YOU think will hunt down these fanatics? My vote may not count because of the Electoral process, but yours does, and I ask you all to seriously consider what can happen in the next month, to four years.
