Yeah, Right, Whatever

Are we sheeple? Have we, as a nation, looked at the issues and really contemplated how different policies will impact the future of our nation? Do we really care?

I'm still praying... I will be all day. The students at the homeschool co-op will have a mock election (and I'm 99.999% sure how it will turn out). Tonight I will be going to a victory reception... I'll tell you more about that later.

A few days ago, Senator Cornyn posted a video about the importance of voting in this election and what is at stake:

Senator McCain sent out this e-mail, asking for support:

My Friend,

From the time I entered the Naval Academy at age seventeen I have been privileged and honored to serve my country.

Throughout my years of service, I've been faced with challenges where I could have taken the easy way out and given up. But I'm an American and I never give up. Instead, I choose to show courage and stand up and fight for the country I love. Today, I am asking you to stand with me and to fight for our country's future.

Our country faces enormous challenges and our next president must be ready to lead on day one. My lifetime of experience has prepared me to lead our great nation. I'm prepared to bring solutions to our economic challenges, bring our troops home in victory and improve our nation's healthcare system.

Time and time again, my country has saved my life and I owe her more than she has ever owed me. I have chosen to show my gratitude through a life of service to our country and tomorrow, you will have a choice before you.

I humbly ask you to make the choice that will allow me to serve my country a little while longer by casting your vote to elect me as your next President of the United States.

Finally, I ask that you never forget that much has been sacrificed to protect our right to vote. We must never forget those Americans who, with their courage, with their sacrifice, and with their lives, have protected our freedom. It is my great hope that you will exercise your right to vote as an American tomorrow.

I thank you for your kind support, your dedication to our cause, and most importantly I thank you for your vote.

With sincere appreciation,

John McCain

If you haven't voted yet and are legally allowed to do so, GO VOTE!!!!
