'Cause he's got what all the rest lack
Political note:
I avoid discussing politics these days as I don't follow closely and don't venture many opinions on things of which I'm ignorant.
I still think I'm obligated to vote and I did in the primary.
If you're curious, I voted for Ron Paul in the presidential race, despite the following.
The racist content in the newsletters was news to me, besides the one that Lefty Morris brought up a few years ago. I couldn't afford the newsletter back then, it was pretty pricey as I remember. I don't care for racists, they have no respect for logic. I don't think Dr. Paul's a racist, but letting that kind of thing go into the newsletters is something for which he should be held accountable.
Anyway, I think Dr. Paul's position on ending the Iraq war is unrealistic and would have negative consequences, but, since he wasn't going to win I found it easier to vote for him.
I didn't go to the precinct convention. (Why do they insist on calling it a caucus?) I saw some of the Democrats' conventions on the TV. Dang. Glad I didn't have to deal with that much turnout as an elections judge.

A bit of this and a bit of that...
1. We were taken to Brenner's last night. Wonderful.
2. I'm going to continue to go through the archives of unfinished posts and see what I can snag from it. Because we are not in the least ways about quality here at Slightly Rough. We're about volume, volume, volume!
3. MainstreamLibertarian.com was a Cool Pick of the Day. Eric drags me back in to politics and the awards start flying.
4. My Christmas Wish - That for the rest of the year, the people who are offended by public displays of Christianity and the people who are offended by the people who are offended by public displays of Christianity will all just shut up and be nice to each other.
