My Christmas Wish List

by Daniel Short

Merry Christmas to you all - that's right, I said MERRY CHRISTMAS! If that offends you, you are obviously on the wrong blog. I heard that Barbara Walters questioned the Christmas card that she received from the White House because it contained a Bible verse. She wondered aloud if Jews and Muslims received the same card? The last time I checked, Christmas was a Christian holiday celebrating the birth of Christ. Barbara, I don't think Jews or Muslims celebrate unless they own a retail outlet and the sales are brisk. This is still a country based on Christian values and traditions - even if it is fading before our eyes. Lighten up Walters.

Now for my wishes!

My wish for Mike Sodrel - Lots and lots of campaign contributions to help get that message out. The do nothing congress finally did something. They once again intruded upon our freedoms to make choices for ourselves and our families by mandating higher costs for transportation and likely less safe vehicles by upping the mileage standards. Hey Congress, cars already exist that get 35 miles per gallon - we can buy them if we want to, not because we have to. Call me Mike, I have some great ideas for this upcoming fight.

My wish for Mike Huckabee - Thick Skin. Welcome to the lead Mr. Huckabee, where everyone will shoot you in the back. Take joy in the barbs for they will sharpen your skills for your Fall 08 showdown with the Clinton attack dogs. Chin up, chest out, running shoes on!

My wish for all you middle America conservatives - Stamina! We know who we are, we know what we stand for, we know we are the spine of this nation - we are the real America. Be relentless - tell everyone you know what is important in this election. Do not let up, even if it looks promising for the right. Let's renew our commitment to changing America for the better, from local to national. We formed it, now let's take it back.
Jeff Foxworthy made this comment on the CMA show this year about folks like us, "we get up and go to work, we get up and go to church and we get up and go to war if we are asked to." AMEN

Merry Christmas to you all and to all good 2008.

Well what do you expect from Barbara Walters!? Wikipedia states, "Walters' parents were Jewish, although she did not have a religious upbringing, as her father had become an atheist." Just more of the same from lost soul celebrities.

I do hope Mike Sodrel prevails but he'll need to grow more thick skin and a steel jaw to fight the dirty politics of Baron Hill. Will Indiana voters WAKE UP!? My guess is that too many of them are on sleeping pills. They don't wake up unless it affects their wallets. Baron Hill is so out of sync with main stream Hoosiers it astounds me that he was elected in the first place. Want to know where Baron stands?...write to him...he'll gladly tell you BUT take about 4 Tums before reading his response.

Unfortunately, I think Huckabee & Romney are tripping over themselves lately...and Giuliani is running out of steam.

Let me ask YOU a question...Are YOU ready for McCain to be the Republican candidate? I'm betting the ranch (I'm really not a betting woman & I don't own a ranch) that it'll come down to McCain as the Republican nominee. I have A LOT of mixed feelings about him BUT I honestly do feel that he is the only Republican candidate that can prevail over Clinton and her dirty political moves.

I see McCain making Clinton look inexperienced and trivial...which she is. Hmm...who would McCain pick as his VP? I wonder if it would be Joe Lieberman or Zell Miller? haha! why am I laughing!

This could get interesting folks! I didn't say GOOD...I said INTERESTING. Hold on to your rumps...we could be in for a very bumpy ride. ;)
