Thanks Sarah!


Thanks Sarah!, originally uploaded by HA! Designs - Artbyheather.

After press secretary Robert Gibbs' display this week, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktTFtqK_XwQ , I thought I'd put my own little list on my hand so I won't forget to do what is becoming more and more important to the preserving of our great country. It seems this administration has no respect for the dignity of the office of the President. For Gibbs to pull that little stunt - which caused moans from the press who DO still have an inkling of the dignity of the office - gave me pause...how will they cheapen and demean the leadership roles of this country next? I'm sure we'll find out soon.
I am a stay-at-home mom. I've NEVER been involved in politics, much less cared. This administration has awakened a passion for our country in me that I didn't realize was so strong. I love our country. I've always been patriotic. This is different. This feels like an attack from within. An attack on my family, our livelihood, our future, the future of my children. I'm passionate about my family. I am a mother bear when it comes to my children. It's very apparent that a lot of mother bears are being poked by this administration. I have attended several tea parties and will be stepping up my involvement even more. I am learning more about the candidates that would like to take Patti Murray's seat in the Senate. I will do whatever I can to help make that happen.


If you are concerned about the direction our country is going, will you join me?

I'm so much in agreement with all you said in this post. I want to do something to make a change and am always afraid I'll weaken the conservative side by dividing the vote. What do you think?

Hi Nancy!
I think if we support candidates that share our convictions, we'll be helping our country. I'm no longer identifying myself as a republican, but as a conservative. Sometimes that candidate will be an independent, sometimes a libertarian, sometimes it may even be a republican or democrat. Their record will show their true colors and I'll vote conservative every time!
