Hebrews 4:12

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Even The Wind Knows The Truth

Something I saw on Fox News today struck me as kind of funny. It seems that John McCain was giving a speech, but the teleprompter was out, and so he was reading from prepared remarks on the podium, but the wind kept blowing the pages around, making things difficult. Apparently this caused John McCain to skip a part of his speech. Included in the parts that were skipped was a point at which he planned to say, "I'm a Conservative." Kinda funny that even the wind knew better, and stopped him from delivering this lie.

I guess the whole thing is part of a tour he's doing around the US, visiting all the places he has been as a result of his Military service. I guess it's geared toward reminding everyone that he is a War Hero (and truly I do thank him for his service) and to get back a little of the media attention, but doing so without too much chance that he's going to do or say anything that's going to get him in trouble. Actually, it's probably a pretty smart plan, so, Kudos to John McCain, and more appropriately his campaign staff, for this good strategy. Of course, I don't want him to be our next President, but he actually does seem to have a pretty good shot at it, and honestly, I'd like to see Obama or Clinton even less, but I'm still not going to vote for him.

Speaking of Clinton, I still find it unbelievable that so many people are demanding that she drop out of the race. Her and Obama are pretty much neck and neck for the nomination right now, and she certainly has every right, and possibly you might even call it a duty, to stay in and fight it out. It's also stunning to me that Obama is still doing well in the polls, even after it's come out how racist he is, but I may do a larger post on that whole subject.

For now, all we can do is discuss the issues... and Pray... always Pray.

Something else that was kind of interesting, I saw a poll where people were asked who would be the best new first spouse. Cindy McCain won handily at 66% with Bill Clinton coming in second at 30%, and only the last 4% going to the America hating Michelle Obama. Kinda makes you think doesn't it?

"...the wind knew better..." Ha! You are so funny, Matt!

That poll regarding the spouses of the candidates is really interesting! Bill Clinton scored 26 percentage points above Michele Obama? Wow! She should be really embarrassed about that!

Yes, she probably should be, but she probably just assumes that it's all racial bias, and besides, it's probably the part of the population that she still isn't proud of (you know, anyone who doesn't support her hubby) that wouldn't vote for her in any case...
