Reflecting on the Presidential Debates (both of them)
As I watched the two most recent debates I was amazed at what a good ol face to face vetting of the candidates could reveal and make me feel. Surprisingly by the end of both evenings I came out liking some and disliking others. By the end of the Republican presidential debate I even began to understand and relike some of the democratic candidates and step back from who I thought my alt Republican candidate would be.
The Dems (High Brow Elitist Nerds)
What has been amazing about this race is that each party has set up a platform that everyone must and has to agree with. The Democrats have set up amazing stances which from where I’m standing or sitting don’t seem to be terribly realistic.
The Dems and Iraq
One of these stances is the pullout from Iraq. Though I did not support the Bush War to have access to the second largest oil reserve in the world; and believe that the death and carnage in Iraq has not benefited American democracy or the American cause one bit; the very thought of an all out bring our troops pullout from Iraq is disgusting and unfair. The point the democrats need to realize is that the damage has been done. We have invaded Iraq. We have torn down their peace andtheir infrastructure. Though Saddam was a dictator, he could keep PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST a lot better than George Bush could or can. The point being, the United States has left nothing but blood and carnage for the Iraqi people and until the United States can restore to Iraq what they had prior to the United States Invasion, in terms of peace and resources. There is no honest way to pull out of Iraq. I wish one democrat would realize this (just one)
Lies Lies Lies (Some Dems hace concocted an unintelligible lie for why they Voted for the Iraq War)
There is one democratic candidate who said something to the effect that they voted for the Iraq war, and that was not so bad because the people have democracy now. Excuse me but after the world trade center was bombed (OK an airplane crashed into it) our bill of rights were wiped off the map. What kind of democracy is going on in a country in the midst of a civil war. What I don’t understand is why none of these people can just say, I was mislead, after the world trade center carnage we did not want to do anything that could jeopardize the safety of the American people and President Bush was simply insistent that Saddam was a threat to the United States and their allies. (SIMPLE BLAME IT ON PRESIDENT BUSH) If Condi can say she missed the warning about the world trade center because their war just so many warning regarding terrorists acts it was hard to discern what was true. The Dems sure can say President Bush mislead us. Simple, even a ol state college graduate like me can understand that! OOPS oh a state graduate did pick up on that JOHN EDWARDS! Thank you John, and of course Barack Obama he hawed his mantra I was always against the war. Yes, Barack you were never for the war and neither was almost every black person I spoke with prior to the war. It’s a Black thing to be against any sort of perceived imperialism. Even so I do believe that Barack Obama or John Edwards mya have won the debate. I loved Hillary’s makeup though and as a woman just putting on makeup and looking hip made me most likely to vote for her, as well-as her courage and determination to make it thus far in this obvious world of men. Though I heard the words of others my vote is leaning heavily towards the woman because I am a woman and a man through greed and avarice has messed up the UNited States. In the final analysis I do believe that men are alike regardless of race and do stick together. Women need to stick together too, I think

Dems and Don’t Ask Don’t Tell (Gays in the Military)
I am perplexed why everyone has to know. I just don’t know why we have to keep revisiting this issue. The same reason we have to revisit this issue is because the same folks advocating for being openly gay in the military are the same people who will be trying to hump your husbands ass in the fox hole. This may seem crude and rude but we all know that their are several different gay personalities which if we pay attention to Barbara Walters or some show that did a segment on gays is just how they are or how they act we know that some gays and straights have exhuburant personalities as it relates to sexuality and when you are trying to win any war there is no place for this. Does anyone ever consider that if we do have people who are openly gay, we may have to build separate facilities for these individuals. I have a friend who moved to a California city with twenty dolalrs and ended up in a homeless shelter by design, in any event she told me that they put the transsexuals with the women, unfortunately she noticed one of those transexuals would get an erection when he got around a certain woman. The nextweek she was walking down the street and this little transsexual had turned into a man. (HA HA) I say this to say just the logistics of gays in the military is hard to deal with. Don’t ask don’t tell is a reasonable solution. If a military man lives with another man, don’t ask. If a woman shaves her head off and has a tattoo of female female on her arm, don’t ask, . DON’T ASK DON’T TELL. Finally I have also lived in San Francisco and dated pretty extensively there because the men are hot there. I never asked but ended up with the following results, boy I saw you kiss him— I never thought I would see him with a woman, well he was with me. Upon enquiring of a San Francisco native about someones sexuality because I wanted to date this guy. I was given the cold shoulder until I had to figure out for myself that UNLESS YOU ARE IN CASTRO, It’s Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.
Well I do like to write but I’ve been up all night doing other things and have to make the rest of this post PART II
Y’all know I have a little editing problem so I will have to edit this later also.
