Today I got my first hateful comment. Yay! Now I feel like a real blogger.
At first I was glad that I had the opportunity to not publish the load of bull that the idiot wrote, but now I almost wish I had saved it so people could see how sick some people are. I won't say what his website is because he doesn't deserve free advertising. Let's just say he didn't like my opinion on abortions. On his website there are pictures supposedly of aborted babies. Clearly, these would be partial-birth abortions, which is not your standard, first-term abortion. Also, I am pro-choice. That is not the opposite of pro-life, it's a middle ground. But when you're a fanatic, you don't notice subtleties, so I don't know why I bothered to mention it.
I am very happy that the election is tomorrow because I am sick of being forced to believe that otherwise intelligent people may want Sarah Palin in office. But no matter tomorrow's outcome, my politics won't change. Hate me for it, but that's who I am.

the power of bumper stickers
I have finally figured out the reason that I don't have any bumper stickers. I just don't have the energy for it. I think of getting them all the time when I see good ones, but I don't think I could handle the responsibility.
When I see a bumper sticker on a car, I take it pretty seriously. I form an opinion of the person driving the car based on the bumper sticker. Think about it: the person had to feel strongly enough about whatever the message is to go buy that bumper sticker and physically put it on their car. So it must reflect on them. I see a McCain-Palin sticker or, even worse, one that says "I (heart)^ Sarah" **shudders** - I form an opinion. And it's not a good one. I want to look at the car and the person in it. Are they well-off? Do they look evil? Do they care that they are driving a gas guzzling H3 down a freeway in a city, wasting resources just because they can?? Ahem.^^
On the other hand, if I see a cool one -
Aslan is on the move
If you're against abortion don't have one
Obama for change
Coexist (which is made up of various religious symbols I can't get on here)
Ankh if you love Isis
-then I feel connected to that person. I try to catch their eye to show my appreciation for their groovy ways. But then I'm sure they think my smile is creepy, because they are probably not thinking every second they are driving about the bumper sticker they bought. And I would be. I would be waiting for reactions from other drivers. Which is why I cannot handle the responsibility of a bumper sticker.
I maybe shouldn't have the responsibility of driving and reading them either. Because if I see one more sticker that says something like "Marriage = (man stick figure) + (woman stick figure)"
I just might ram the car. #
^ It's supposed to be a heart symbol but, again, I'm having a symbol issue.
^^ I know some people might react negatively to my political views. But I don't care. If you are seriously voting for that women, you are beyond saving anyway.
#It's interesting to note that in wingdings I can get a man figure, but not a woman. So I could depict gay marriage. But seriously, how does the possibility of two men (or women) living happily together in marriage sully the whole institution, if Britney doesn't? What business of your is it anyway? And if you are married, and you think someone else's marriage may effect yours, maybe yours isn't so great.
