So as the day draws near to take a stand and vote, I am saddened to hear that people aren't voting. I hear the excuse "i don't like either" and to me that just sounds crazy. You may not like either as much but this is the man that will be representing our country for the next 4 years! There are people out there that don't even have the choice to decide their next president, why would you waste yours?
I am not saying to vote one way or the other, my husband and I don't agree on it that's for sure, but just VOTE!!!
Now on to my choice for the next President!
I believe that this man will give us the change we so desperatly need. It goes beyond his charisma and charm and right down to his beliefs and his plans for change in our country. I annoy my husband because everytime I leave the house now, I wear my new Obama shirt! I love it!
For all you McCain supporters out there.
This is an article by Phillip Butler, a Vitetnam POW who knows McCain like the rest of us don't.

DEBATE REALITY CHECK: PALIN WRONG ON CLIMATE CHANGE SUB-CABINET POSITION
October 02, 2008
PALIN TONIGHT: “We have got to encourage other nations to come along with us with the impacts of climate change, what we can do about that. As governor I was the first governor to form a climate change subcabinet to start dealing with the impacts.”
FACTS: PALIN WAS NOT THE FIRST GOVERNOR TO ACT ON CLIMATE CHANGE OR REORGANIZE HER CABINET TO DEAL WITH IT
In JANUARY 2007, Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick Began Sweeping Cabinet Reorganization to Integrate Energy and Environment to Deal With Climate Change. "The challenge of climate change illustrates vividly the need to integrate energy and environmental policy," added Governor Patrick, who has begun a sweeping Cabinet reorganization that combines energy and environmental affairs agencies into a single secretariat." [Gov. Patrick Press Release, 1/8/07 ]
· Nevada Created Climate Committee in April, 2007. On April 10, 2007, “Governor Jim Gibbons today signed an executive order creating the Nevada Climate Change Advisory Committee and named its 13 members. The Committee is tasked with making recommendations to the Governor on reducing Nevada's greenhouse gas emissions." [State of Nevada Press Release , 4/10/07]
· By May of 2007, 29 States had Taken Action On Climate Change. "Among the 29 states that have taken steps to curb their contributions to global warming, some have been more active than others. Massachusetts sued the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency over its refusal to regulate greenhouse gas emissions, and won a victory in the U.S. Supreme Court last month. California, at the urging of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, passed the nation's most stringent emissions control legislation. California also worked with several New England states to set up the carbon registry." [St. Petersburg Times, 5/10/97 ]
Palin Created Subcabinet on Climate Change In SEPTEMBER 2007. According to a press release, “Governor Sarah Palin today signed Administrative Order 238 establishing a sub-cabinet to prepare a climate change strategy. ‘Many scientists note that Alaska’s climate is changing,’ Governor Palin said. ‘We are already seeing the effects. Coastal erosion, thawing permafrost, retreating sea ice and record forest fires affect our communities and our infrastructure. Some scientists tell us to expect more changes in the future. We must begin to prepare for those changes now.’” She also said that the sub-cabinet would look at ways to develop the state’s renewable energy sources. [Palin press release, 9/14/07]
Do you really want a VP with the possibility of taking over as President to be so uninformed that she thinks that because of Russia and Canada's close proximity to Alaska, she has foreign policy experiance??? Really??? The woman can barely explain her idea of what a VP does! Not to mention as an educated woman, why on earth would you vote for someone trying to take your rights away!
Ok I am done for now.
