Palin's Pregnant Daughter

I know many of you may be wondering like myself on this, What's the big deal with Sarah Palin's John McCain's running mate's 17 year old daughter being pregnant have to do with getting elected as president or vice president 17 year old daughter being pregnant?
Wait, hold on, hear me out first.
I realize that's not how God said it should be, but is she the first to get pregnant at 17 ? will she be the last ? The answer to those questions is NO !!
If that is such a big deal, then V.P. Dick Chaney should not be the V.P. because his daughter is a lesbian. How is it going to make a difference if McCain gets elected or not or is it going to make a difference on how the country is run. What people do in their PRIVATE life is their own business. That's why it's called PRIVATE, because it's no body else's concern what people do in their PRIVATE life.
I hate when election time rolls around whether it be for the local, state and national elections because it always seems that each candidate tries to find ANY dirt they can against their opponent like it is going to make a hill of beans whether or not you would vote for them in the first place or not.
Another question I'd like to know is, " Why can't every candidate just simply say what they intend to do or how they intend to change the way whatever office they are running for is being ran at the present" ? Everytime a political advertisement comes on the tv, I either mute the tv or change the channel. Why all the mud slinging ?, If you voted for the person in the first election, and they are running again, I would think you would know if they kept their promises of what they said they would do or not. ( I'm NOT talking about Larry, we ALL know what he's NOT doing ).
I guess by now you know who probably will get the Democratic nomination for the presidency. I have been wondering How can any red blooded american vote for someone who , will NOT salute our flag ? There have been pictures of Hilliary, McCain, and the others were saluting the flag and Obama was looking away and NOT saluting the flag.
You can say that the picture was altered, maybe so, but that left a bad taste in my mouth for him, also doesn't it ring a bell about the similarity of the name ? " Osama - Obama ", I 'm not very smart but come on, we are going to vote for a person who is from another culture. What has happened to the AMERICAN people ?Talk about "change " well duh. Yes that is what I call change. We as God fearing red blooded americans are being decieved here. All of us know the politicians say ANYTHING we want to hear and then do what THEY want to do.
If we elect Obama, then our military people are fighting for an unjust cause. Have we FORGOT 911 ? I remember how gunho we were back then, how we wanted to blow them up, but now we're saying wait let's forgive & forget. By voting for Obama, we are accepting the fact that 911 was only a bad dream, and that they were really not trying to hurt anybody. Does a rattlesnake intend to bite, or does a bee intend to sting when either one gets aggitated ?
If Obama does get elected as president of the greatest nation, and all H--- breaks loose, don't come crying and saying we need to make a " change " , before voting and then realizing what a bad desicision you've made, PRAY about the choice FIRST.
Corrupt Business Executives

I know our leaders in our day ( i.e. Richard Scrushy, Don Siegalman, Gary Wyatt, etc.) have been involved in corruption cases throughout their careers, but it makes me wonder why they think that the public and our judical system is so stupid to overlook their corrupt transactions. Now I am not saying I'm the smartest person nor the sharpest knife in the drawer, but you know when you have done or are about to do something wrong , no one has to tell you you're about to do wrong. True you may not get caught right off the bat.
Sure nobody likes to get caught because of the consequences that they may face but is it not better to admit to wrong doings before you are humiiated publically ? As a child I did not like getting a spanking for doing wrong, but I learned from doing wrong that if I did it again I would get another spaking and it would be even more severe. I had rather for them to come clean, admit they did wrong ,than to lie about it. Most of the time people will forget a persons error than remember it for ever when they lie and then get caugt. Talk about humillation for them and their families. Remember how Schrushy's wife looked after the trial and conviction of her husband ?
It also makes me mad to know that they think money will buy their way out of most of their situations, and for us working middle class people who don't have a lot of money, if we do wrong, we get slammed to the curb and stepped on like dirt. To me if any person does wrong no matter their status in life they should get repremended. I know you are thinking, it depends on the situation and the severity of the crime, and that the punishment should fit the crime, maybe so, but still the leaders will wiggle off the hook when the average person gets the book thrown at them. Now is that fair ? Money don't always buy everything you know. All I can say is you can't do wrong and get by, you will get caught at some point or the other.
