Top 5 Problems with the Tax Deal

This deal that Obama has made with the republicans just rubs me the wrong way. I get that he did what he felt he had to do for those American’s struggling the most right now. That is understandable and by itself even admirable. And, if I felt that the republicans had even the slightest good intention, I would feel that the cooperation across the aisle would even be a good sign.

But, I don’t trust the republicans and I know that they will do everything they can to block any legislation that doesn’t benefit corporate America in the future so these efforts are really meaningless.

The State of the Union

I came into this State of the Union address feeling angst and disappointment.   Disappointed in the President for not being stronger and the democrats in congress for being spineless and disgust at the pettiness of politicians on both sides of the aisle.  But mostly I feel pain for my fellow Americans and intense confusion [...]

A Historic Day

This morning we sat as a family and watched the inauguration of Barack Obama as President of the United States of America. Although words are not coming easily to me at this point, I am full. Full of hope for the future. Full of pride in my country. Full of love for everyone and everything. [...]

Yea! It’s Election Day!

It’s so exciting!  Karli and I took Ian down to our local elementary school after dropping Ada at school this morning and proudly voted for Obama as well as many state and local issues.  There weren’t any lines or crowds as we live in a small town (well actually a very small incorporated seattle suburb) [...]

Sarah Palin’s Wardrobe

Now, we all know where my politics lie, but I have to comment on this whole deal about Sarah Palin’s 100k wardrobe. I really don’t see why everyone is making such a big deal about this. I do see the hypocritical air of having such an extensive clothing allowance while preaching to everyone her down home [...]

Dear Joe Biden: Gut her, but nicely

Poor Joe Biden has quite the dilemma tonight. His job is to take Sarah Palin out, but he also risks sounding pompous and elitist if he goes after her too aggressively. It’s almost too easy to make Sarah Palin sound incompetent, she doesn’t even know which newspapers she reads, or should I say that the [...]

Barack Obama VP

UPDATE: I know, I know, I’m late. Family in town. Building a deck. Barack Obama has chosen Joe Biden as his running mate. If you just absolutely must be the first one to know who the Obama VP is going to be (like I do), then you must visit the Barack Obama website and sign [...]

Just Say No Deal

I have heard several discussions on the radio over the last couple of weeks that had a member of Just Say No Deal on the panel. After hearing the third separate member shock me with their bitterness and delusions, I just had to say something. They say some of the most outlandish things I have [...]

Washington State Democratic Caucus

Well, today was caucus day. It was pretty exciting. I caucused at Lake Forest Park Elementary and there was a huge turnout. I would say about 400 people or so at our location. I was talking with one woman that said last time she caucused there was around 10 or 15 people in our precinct [...]
