Not all Liberals are evil
Posted by: | CommentsIt sort of shocked me to figure out that not all Liberals are the enemy and are often nice people. Maybe I should have known that already but I never was the sharpest knife in the drawer. But it recommitted me to trying to reason with them on my blog rather than do the easy (and fun) thing and insult them.
I work a “Real” job and also get a decent bit of income as a freelance writer (mostly online) in my spare time. I often visit a writer’s forum where there are many Liberals, and by unspoken agreement we don’t talk politics there. Writers tend to be Liberal and I don’t want to have arguments there.
Well, recently I was having a really bad day and somebody there ticked me off and I went off on them in the forum. Instead of everyone there telling me to leave, there were many comments about they were sorry I was having a bad day and encouraging me not to quit the site. I explained I was mad over some comments left on a blog of mine and they said they didn’t agree with me but that the comments were uncalled for by the other Liberals. And two of the Conservatives even joined my blog to help me get our message out.
What I learned is that if we talk out differences of opinions, then there can often be an understanding. If we fuss and fume and growl at each other then nothing will ever be accomplished in this country.
We need a return to paper Ballots
Posted by: | CommentsI feel that it is time that we return our elections to a paper ballot to discourage voter fraud. Of course as conservatives we think of ACORN when voter fraud comes to mind, and with good reason. But the truth is that either side could hack or otherwise mess with electronic votes to influence the outcome.
A paper ballot election could be easily recounted when the results are in question. They would help keep organizations like ACORN in check, at least partly. Paper Ballot elections worked for many years and there is no reason to think they wouldn’t work now.
We should demand a return to that more accurate ability to count our votes. Any politician who is against this should be voted out of office. Our right to vote is the most important thing we have, followed shortly by Freedom of Speech. We should not allow the ability to hold fair and free elections to be kept from us, by either side of the aisle.
Time to take our country back!
Posted by: | CommentsI believe we need to get back our country and do it as quickly as possible. We need a return to the years of smaller government and a better economy, I believe they go hand in hand. Less government interference and lower taxes equals more jobs and a solid economy, it is a time tested fact.
I don’t want my kids brainwashed into being drones for a restrictive government, or to be told there is no God. They and their own future children should not be taxed excessively to pay off government debt they had no decision in bringing about. And I certainly do not want to bail out California which is a blatant example of Taxation without Representation.
We need to stop arguing with the hard core left wingers and work on educating the people who would have been Reagan Democrats in better times. We need to get our friends and neighbors who are not interested in politics to see the light. The more legitimate votes we can get in 2010 the harder it will be for the election to be rigged by ACORN. It is time to remind the government that they serve us and not the other way around. It is time to show them the We do indeed Surround Them!
