Organically Inclined

I just wanted to thank everyone at the VHFA who made me feel so welcome there today! Even though my morning got off to a strange start, I heard that my speech was pretty good - so YAY!
Unfortunately, my pregnant brain and I left my books at my house early this morning, so if you [...]

I’m a huge West Wing fan - huge! I own all seven seasons on DVD and watch an episode everyday at lunch. Here is a piece of the Obama - Bartlet chat as written by Maureen Dowd this morning…
OBAMA: What would you do?
BARTLET:GET ANGRIER! Call them liars, because that’s what they are. Sarah Palin didn’t [...]

OK - let me set a few things straight right from the beginning.
1. I am a die-hard Democrat. Always have been. I was born with a blue tongue…
2. I liked John McCain. I did. I thought, for a while, that of all the Republicans, he was the one I could have dealt with the most.
3. [...]

Need I say more?

You’ve probably already seen this - but I hadn’t until this morning…no TV, only Internet! Quite possible the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Even if you’ve seen it, know that I’m putting it on my blog, just so I can keep it forever!

I’m sure I won’t vote for Gov. Palin (oh yeah, and John McCain) but I sure do like her a lot when I hear stuff like this:

I went to the Laundromat for the afternoon and I come back to hear that Bristol Palin is pregnant and is marrying the baby’s father. All I can say is “Wow.”
This is what Senator Obama had to say to Fox News: “I have heard some of the news on this and so let me be [...]

“We may be seeing the first woman president. As a Democrat, I am reeling,” said Camille Paglia, the cultural critic. “That was the best political speech I have ever seen delivered by an American woman politician. Palin is as tough as nails.”

OK - not in a creepy way, just in a “read all I can about her way.” Because I really, really want to like her. Maureen Dowd - usually one of my favorite columnists - really hacked me off this morning too. Because while I appreciate her humor in the face of truth, I also [...]

OK. I’ve had to amend a post I made yesterday. I was, initially excited about Governor Palin’s selection as the VP candidate from the GOP. You see, I am conservative in many ways. I am pro-life. I am for smaller government (just like Thomas Jefferson). I am fine with hunters owning rifles (I shot tin [...]
