Here's a Whale

Word of the day: "sucker punched"

Probably should give a little history of the developments of my thoughts on the direction our country is headed.
My mother was a lifelong Democrat. As a judge she was always looking out for the less fortunate.
1972 - 22 years old, I registered as a Democrat so..."Don't blame me I voted for McGovern.
1976 - Voted for Jimmy Carter (I took his photo and sent it to him he signed it and sent it back to me)

• 1980 - Voted for Jimmy Carter, Regan Elected not the end of the world
• 1984 - Voted for Walter Mondale, Regan Elected again...
• Iran-Contra. Even I could see Oliver North was the fall guy.
• 1988 - Voted for Michael Dukakis, George Bush Sr elected ok, I can deal with this too
• 1991 - Iraq invades Kuwait - "Gulf War" - USA took care of business.
• 1992 - Voted for Bill Clinton
• 1996 - Voted for Bill Clinton
• 2000 - Voted for Al Gore... Get the picture

9/11/2001 USA "Sucker Punched" by murderous foreign religious radicals, Al-Qaida/Taliban inspired
9/George Bush acted and spoke on behalf of the American People
5/2/2003 George W. Bush Lands fighter jet on the Aircraft Carrier USS Lincoln. The troops were thrilled
5/3/2003 Maxine Waters State Representative for California, in a "banshee like" tirade complaines about GWB landing on the aircraft carrier delaying the homecoming for servicemen. I was so embarrased by her rant that I didn't want to be affiliated with the Democrat party. In response, I would have liked to see GWB land a fighter jet on every aircraft carrier in the fleet.
That evening, I called the Orlando Republican Headquarters and told them "I have an emergency, I need to change my party affiliation" This was a Friday, in Monday's mail was a voter registration card and I officially became a Republican.

• 2004 - Voted for George Bush

Disappointed that George bush didn't completely pardon the border patrol agents who shot the drug dealer and disappointed that he didn't exonerate Carl Rove.

• 2008 - Voted for John McCain

And here we are 2009. Terrified at the turn our country is taking. Democrats and Republicans alike are only representing themselves and leaving their constituents in the dust. So for the next two years all of this socialist legislation is getting 'rammed' through and I have no voice.
