More Politics

As we have already determined, I am a Political Junkie, and my blogging friend Casey(check out her blog here) has been kind enough to engage me, I found a cool site today about both Senators Obama and McCain. It measures the truth in what they are saying on the issues and about each other. Check it out here if you have time. It is a quick take on the issues and where each Senator stands.

Thanks for the site...I'll pass it along to my son--he's an avid passionate political teenager/future politican---DEMOCRATIC, that is!!

I am glad to here he is passionate about politics, even if he is a Democrat:)

Ree said...

That wasn't meant as a dig against you! He is just very passionate about his Democrats!! Sorry if you took thatthe wrong way!!

Oh No Ree, I didn't at all;remember, I am from NJ and have thick skin, but I really thought the comment was nice. I really do like to hear about young people interested in politics. It makes me happy. And I do have more than a few Democrats in my life:) And I am really not a Republican, just a political junkie:)

And please, never hold back a comment on fear of offending me, it rarely happens and when it does, I enjoy the argument.

That is the only thing I hate about debating w/friends. I am always afraid of offending.
I had a little thing about this with another fellow blogger friend and it bothered her. She took it as if I wasn't confident in my chooses when the real case is I didn't want it to get carried away and hurt the friendship. Ya know?

Ree,
Em and I debate regularly and she still lets her kids come and play :)

I think it is great that your son is into politics, I hope he can interest other younger folks!

I lecture before an election to my classes that young people need to be more involved and use their right to vote, who they choose will be with them four long years, and they should have a say.

Haha Bec. I am thinking about not letting them play now though, due to your new Common Sense Platform. I mean really how could you EVER think common sense would play a role in politics:)

Ree, see, I told you I love to debate intelligent people, so you are safe here:) I will never stop liking you based on a opposing view, so long as you can back up your belief:) God knows Bec and I rarely agree and I have kept her around for 7 years now:)
