Confession: The real reason I voted for Obama

Americana, Politics, Quiet time, Snarky, Social Media, Things I will NEVER do

All the credit for this goes to a FB acquaintance… which basically means Fox News.

In addition to “Beer For Bums”, and “Cellphones for Bums”….

I agree with keeping people on welfare FOREVER!

I want my parents and their friends to work two jobs while young able-bodied people live on handouts and get FOOD STAMPS!!! Seriously, who in the hell wants to learn how to fish?

I want the guys in the military (including the 4 in my family) to go off to war ill prepared and underfunded.

I believe in death squads… the more the merrier!

I want Obamacare to drain the system and leave everyone living on the streets…maybe the Baby Boomers will have to work THREE jobs!

All the ultra conservatives are exactly right, my vote had nothing to do with supporting a political party that sees women as equals and believes they are capable of making thoughtful and conscientious decisions for themselves and their families. And I certainly didn’t consider the idea that maybe the less fortunate should continue to get some support until we as a nation are back on our feet… and of course I see no difference between those who have real needs and those who are milking the system. Yes, I didn’t consider the ramifications of losing our credit rating and selling our country to China. I seriously have no clue about the dangers of the debt that’s been created and gave no thought to whose plan made more sense to me and my community.  On top of that, the notion that the US needs to work with the international community instead of telling them what to do never crossed my mind. I can’t imagine why we need to tread lightly as we move into an energy future that will hopefully offer alternative sources to the insanity that continues to take place with our suppliers in the Middle East.  And lastly, I never considered the views of family and friends who agree with the Republican agenda. I’m glad their candidate lost and and I’m especially glad that they’re worried about the future because of the decision I helped to make.

Whew! Feels good to clear that up! It bothered me that people assumed I put some thought into my decision and might have actually voted according to what I felt was best for my friends, my family and my community.

Today in Boulder = Rodents For Romney

Americana, campaign signs, Good Chuckle, Politics, That's so Boulder, Today In Boulder

Boulder Prairie Dogs rock the vote!

A bold statement from a family that relies so heavily on government support…they must have seen the photos of Ryan pumping iron. (Photo by Jeremy Papasso /Daily Camera)

Kudos to the nut who made tiny campaign signs and then placed them at the burrows of Boulder’s Prairie Dogs. This is absolutely hysterical and you are my fun hero for the day! At the same time I offer heartfelt sympathy to the poor enforcement officer who now has to go, in full uniform, from burrow to burrow collecting the signs as the indignant little rodents pop out of their holes and chirp in your face… even worse is the possibility that removing the signs will be breaking some sort of campaign law and you are going to find yourself on a forced leave of absence due to free speech violations. I’m laughing but I promise you have my full support. Hang in there.

Let the Carl Spackler jokes begin!

Great Commericals

I saw this a few days ago and it’s been hanging with me ever since.  Brings back sweet memories of heading off to UGA my freshman year. Kudos Google Chrome, you tugged at my heart…maybe even put a little smoke in my eyes.

Good Chuckle, Music, Seriously Hysterical!, Things I love

You ever have one of those days where all you want to do is throw a batch of brownies in the oven, DVR Kill Bill 2 and browse youtube until it’s time to dress for dinner? Yea me too…

Vegan brownies are in the oven, Kill Bill has replaced the Olympics and here’s my latest youtube find – I’m seriously dying. The world (especially Boulder) definitely needs more Steve Kardynals!

Found one more and it’s to my current favorite song – I LOVE THIS GUY!!!

Happy Weekend!

I’m Spice Jones,

a Southerner living in Boulder, Co. I write romance novels, I travel, I garden, I cook, and, when I can lure him close enough with sweet words and tuna, I torment the neighbor's cat.

If you'd like to know when I post my next update enter your email address. Thanks!
