I’m in the middle of teaching American Govt basics to my four elementary aged children (homeschooling family), so the debate tonight was good timing. I clarified all the lies from O’s mouth as the children asked me questions about the topics. When a 10 year old says, “Mommy, is he the one who thinks killing babies is okay?” you know you’re doing a good job. :-)

Last week I had to sit the 3 olders down to explain what homosexuality is — of course, using the Bible as our guide, without getting into the details. Prop 8 here in CA (repealing the Marriage Act to include gays) and the election process made it necessary. They’re thinking and asking great questions. I tell them how “the world” will tell them all kinds of things about how to define families, and whether a woman has the right to kill her baby. I’m teaching them to think for themselves on every level and topic.

Personally, watching the entire debate, I thought McCain did a great job — except when he used the same jargon like “hands across the aisle”, and “maverick”. Obama’s eyeballs are brown in addition to his skin, he’s so full of it. His voice grates on me, and so does his pompous attitude. And I also noticed that he did not answer one single question directly. I also watched carefully at the end, after it was over, in watching each candidate walk through the crowd to greet them while the stupid reporters were giving their take on how it went. I noticed how enthusiastic the majority of them were in wanting to greet McCain — several of the men in the front row actually stood up to shake his hand — but sat down when Obama came around to do the same.

Interesting.....
