I had a dream last night I was trying to tell this woman about all the ways the government has helped me. Like how Pell Grants helped to pay for my education, how Medicaid helped provide health care for my children when we couldn't afford it ourselves while we were in college, and how I'm grateful that my kids can get a good education.
Only, she wouldn't listen to me. She kept talking and talking and talking and her voice was SO ANNOYING.
I kept trying to yell over her, to get her to listen to me.
That's when I woke up and realized a Sarah Palin speech was being played on TV.
Wow, I can't think of anything to say but amen. Thanks for sharing - I couldn't agree more.

Wow thank you high technology. I tried to get a user name and password for your 'family' blog and still could not post a comment or log on... whew... Lucky--!!!
I'm just going to say-- I voted for Clinton, and would go to war for him. I did not vote for Bush#1 and would have gone to war for him. I did vote for Bush #2 and would have gone to war for him.
I as should all good patriots, support our PRESIDENT-!
So may the best Obama win. ..... And if a wind blows the vote tampering the republicans are attempting { good thing I have no middle name} and Mc and the ____ win then I will support them too.
They will do the best job they know how... Good luck president Palin and the guy on the iron lung.

This made me laugh out loud, to the point where my kids asked what was so dang funny. I'm laughing because one of my many thoughts about Palin as a VP pick is that I cannot STAND listening to her. Maybe it's my own confusion at how the heck you get a Midwestern accent living in Alaska, but still. I seriously cannot stand her voice.

Palin and Hilary Clinton both have annoying voices. I can tolerate Palin more though because she's a lot closer to my political ideology than Hilary, but still.
And while we're on the subject, I freakin HATE the way John McCain "whistles" as he speaks and I scream everytime I hear him say "My Friends" or "I'm a Maverick." Gag.
In the interest of partisan politics, Obama is also a big phony when he takes the podium. Listen to his earlier interviews back in 2002 or so. He sounds much different than the corn pone Southern twang he tries to tack on to his speech patterns while out campaigning.
Babay= Baby
As in "I don't want them (his daughters) punished with a BABAY."
