Things That Make You Go Hmmm

As I am sure the rest of you are, we are more than ready for the mid-term elections to be over.... Day and night we are bombarded with add after add and not to mention solicitations on our cell phones, to vote for this candidate, that proposition, etc, etc... More annoying is the negative campaigning, always funded by someone or some group with a vested interest (but you must read the small print...)Personally, we are most excited for the outcome of the California Insurance Commisioner.

I am curious what the outcome would be for someone who ran a positive campaign. Oh well... this is the season when our countries leaders and hopefuls true colors shine. Unfortunately many can not put politics aside, even for a nice dinner, and thus we display the equal behavior of many of these politicians. What is our behavior demonstrating to others, what does it say about us? Of course when some of the most repected in politics (or unrespectable depending where you stand) are leading by example... John Kerry, deep down we know you are sorry, and in case you are reading this, here is a great article regarding the most current statistics on the education levels of our troops: Who Are the Recruits?
