Tired....

Are you as tired of the election as I am?
Boy, it seems like it has gone on for years.
So my patience is wearing thin with these
two we have left, fighting it out. And we
haven’t even got to the conventions yet.
Then there is another 3 months of vicious
attacks.

I am tired of the one-upmanship of the two.
You know…
more religious than you are
more of a Patriot than you are
whining because the press is following over seas

Both of these men are Christians….I get it..
I have met people who have a great
moral code, who have not been inside of a church for
20 some odd years. Who believe in God. Who believe in
their fellow man without crushing them. So I get you are
a Christian….And besides, we aren’t voting for a minister…
we are voting for a President.

Who is more American or a patriot? Well both of them
are. I get that…
But because McCain was a p.o.w. doesn’t make him more patriotic.
What he did was honorable, but one has to wonder if he
was raised by a butcher, or a welder would it be the
same? Coming back to 2 Admirals isn’t easy if you took the easy way out.
like he was offered. It was honorable of him to do what he
did endure. But I agree with General Clark, this does not make
him automatic Presidential material. And that was 30 years ago.
What have you done lately Mr. Mc Cain?
They both love America… I get it..

You talk about how you have experience, Mr. McCain.
Well, at 72, I surely hope you are experience and mature.
But it seems to me, Mr. Obama has been mature and
serious since he was in his 20’s.
At that age you were interested in wine, women and hotshot
life style. It is quoted that you were in the very low numbers
of Annapolis. Obama was in the top of his class. And headed
right into very serious occupations.

And Mr. McCain, stop whining about Obama being
overseas and getting media coverage. You are the one who
challenged him to go. We can’t help it if Obama and
Clinton were still battling it out here, so you didn’t
get the coverage over there, when you went in March.

So let’s quit the one-upmanship. Let’s forget who the two of
you were when you were 20. Let’s get to now.
What are you going to do for our country? Is there a real
answer to the high gas prices? Not a 10 years down the
road of electric cars and etc. I am talking about now..this
year and next. Because all these ideas of electric cars and
etc. are nice for our next generation and are needed. But
that doesn’t do anything for those of us now. Who are eating
because gas prices are high which makes food prices high too.
Is there a real answer to better health coverage without taking
it out of businesses?
Is there a real answer to making home buyers and loan business
be held accountable for their over spending without taking it
out on those of us who have been responsible for our debts?
Those of us who did not buy beyond our means.

So cut the “I am a better whatever” and get to the real issues.
What are you going to do to keep us out of wars, build up our economy?

I'm with you. And just think, we still have to endure the debates.
