Archive for the “political” Category


I’ve been asked over and over lately about where I stand on the issues of the presidential race. Usually I try to change the subject or avoid it all together. I’ve said before that I don’t like politics and don’t trust anyone running today. But if you have to know where I stand… I think that a bumper sticker I saw the other day sums it up. “Scared as Hell in ‘08″. Or apathetic as hell in 08.

I don’t consider myself Republican or Democrat. Both have points and both miss the mark greatly.

I’m pro environment and anti big business. I’m pro choice, but anti-abortion.

I support our troops, but I think war makes sense only in certain circumstances and we haven’t seen those circumstances in decades.

Christians who blindly vote Republican, are certainly not thinkers. They’re pro war and anti abortion. So the message is it’s okay to kill some, but not others.

I’m pretty anti-political. I don’t have much faith in the process, feeling that money and companies run most of it. So I choose to do the best with the time I have. I believe in helping the poor and those in need. I just do what I’m called to do and not worry about politics.

And who do I like for president? Hilary is scary. McCain is creepy. And Obama is good at sounding good.

So that’s where I stand. What about you?
