Ok, ok….so I have completely resisted posting about politics, even though I am a self-avowed conservative political talk-show junkie…..
My favorites are Dennis Prager, Laura Ingraham, and Hugh Hewitt (for those of you who aren’t altogether political, Dennis Prager is a GREAT listen…he talks about everything in life)
This year though, I am……weary…..
Weary I think partly due to the fact that I have three children under the age of five (which leaves me with a LOT less energy to devote to politics), but also weary of the media circus that has surrounded this current election.
For the record, I am a HUGE Sarah Palin fan.
I think that the attacks against her and her family have been vile and insidious. Not that I think that Barak Obama’s family deserves any smears either, but I am mildly disgusted by the almost “worship” of Barak as a person.
I have had to handle ALL of my politics this year in small chunks…here a little…there a little….
I voted originally for Mit Romney (after a lot of debate within myself), and McCain was far and away my LAST choice. But, as I mentioned above, I truly respect Sarah Palin and feel I can vote for McCain/Palin if only because she is on the ticket (I’m sure many echo my sentiments).
There is so much more I could say in detail about what I think and feel politically. I have voted proudly since the time I was eighteen, and can see myself getting more involved in the realm of politics (especially in the defense of life) in my older years.
To sum up, I would say this: to those out there who are also weary of this season of politics, even for those who might HATE politics…don’t lose heart.
God is still in control, even when the rest of the world thinks the sky is falling, and no matter how dark this world may be, we as Christians can stand for what God’s word says is right and true, in whatever way He calls us to do that.
Thank you, Lord, for being the God over all….my heart finds rest in You

AMEN, sista!! Scary stuff, indeed, but I believe that Obama is the scariest of all. I think Palin ROCKS and could be an awesome 1st woman president next go-around.
BTW, I love the talk shows you mentioned as well and have called in and been on a few. Very interesting and entertaining to listen to those guys!!
I second that AMEN - God is in control..."he sets up kings and deposes them..."
I have strongly disliked the candidates for differing reasons, as well as the system this year also...I have not enjoyed this season, but know WHO is in control of whatever has been allowed,and will come to pas. Bless you ~
