Living in Illinois Sucks

Look at the email I got recently from our teacher's union addressed to the entire staff:

Dear Friend,

I'd like to invite you to join me in urging Senator Barack Obama to run for president in 2008. Not only does Senator Obama do a wonderful job representing the people of Illinois, in just a few short years he has proven himself to be an incredibly inspirational national leader. From his memorable and unifying speech at the Democratic National Convention to his new book Audacity of Hope, Barack has shown that he has the best interests of all Americans at heart.

That is why I want to see Barack run for President in 2008. I believe that he is the right man to lead our country at a time of such turmoil around the globe, bringing Americans together at a time in our nation's history when we need unity more than ever.

Barack has said publicly that he is considering a run, and part of his consideration will doubtlessly include measuring the level of his support from Democrats across the country. So I hope you'll join me and Senator Dick Durbin in sending a message to Barack, urging him to run for President!

Do you think this is acceptable email to be sending at work? Besides not liking Obama at all, HE LACKS EXPERIENCE. He makes my skin crawl and living in Illinois he is shoved in our faces all the time. Ick.

Happy Birthday to me???

Well, it's my birthday and I'm watching my fellow Republicans getting beaten like a red-headed stepchild tonight. Virtually every candidate I volunteered for have lost and I loathe the fact I live in a Blue State.....stupid City of Chicago, they ruin everything.

And you know what, since other blogs are already doing this, I'll follow.....I am calling Virginia for George Allen.

Yeah we apparently gave up the House but at least we have the Senate. Let's see if the Commie bastards will do anything besides repeal my tax cut b/c according to them I'm rich!! If I'm so rich, how come I struggle to pay my mortgage every month???? Bastards.

Lord only knows what the hell President Georgie can do now for his last 2 years. Even hearing or seeing Nancy Pelosi makes me want to kill puppies and now she'll be the House leader......{{I think I just puked in my mouth}}

Oh well, thank god for the first time in my life, my beloved is a Republican and we can lick each other's wounds (don't get perverted on me people.)

My birthday started out great......got a trip to Texas from the BF, a necklace from sis and got a donkey kick in the teeth to end it.

Now I'm all fired up......more to come.
