Why I Don’t Write About Sarah Palin’s Facebook Posts
She and I have a lot of things in common.
My education matches hers it took years for me to earn my degree taking a few courses at a time here and there.
I was president of my PTA and an officer in my woman’s club we have that in common.
I was a soccer, baseball, and basketball mom, so we have that in common.
I own a small business where I make out budgets, so you could call me an executive that is another thing we have in common.
I am married to a Joe six-pack, but he says he is a Joe 12 pack, I wish we did not have that in common!
I have three children and five grand children, she’s catching up to me.
I am a catholic and have never had an abortion. I used birth control when I was too old to safely have a healthy child.
I will be voting for Obama. Why? Because I would never presume that I have the intellect and education to be 1/2 a breath away from being the leader of the most powerful nation in the world. It takes more then charm and snappy remarks to have a finger on the nuclear button. That is something that speechwriters and pundits can’t teach a candidate in a few weeks.
Sorry I want intelligence running this nation. So this white, Catholic 61 year old, Republican grandmother will be voting for Barack Obama.
