oh my cravings!

I don't know where or why, but sometimes I'll get specific cravings for food and I know exactly what I want. The past week after dinner, my sweet tooth is saying this:


See's Scotchmallow! yuu-uh-umm.
I went to Fanny May down the street from me to satisfy this crave, but the guy informs me they stopped making it! But kindly he sampled the dark chocolate marshmallow candy out to me, and it did the trick... for that night.
so upon searching for the name of my desired tastebud craving, here's more of See's delicious-ness (my favorites):

Say hello to Carmel with almonds, Walnut Square & Almond Square. yummy.
Is your mouth watering like mine has been?

Ever since my family lived in California (home of See's Candies) that is our #1 pick for chocolates. It's some good stuff. Some friends used to send us a box every year at Christmas.

from "The Patriot Post"
They'll now have to take responsibility if the economy stays in recession, or if Iraq turns chaotic again after an abrupt U.S. withdrawal. Americans have entrusted Democrats with what will essentially be unrestrained power, and we'll soon see if liberals have learned to govern." --The Wall Street Journal

"Obama Thanks 'Gracious' Press" --Agence France-Presse (Thanks to The Wall Street Journal's James Taranto)

from Gary Bauer "Campaign for Working Families" End of Day Report Nov. 5
That said, the junior senator from Illinois, after just four years of service in the Senate, is now President-elect Obama. The most radical and inexperienced president in history is about to come into power with an expanded Democrat majority in Congress. Will the radical Left be able to restrain its impulse to raise your taxes? Will Obama push for a precipitous withdrawal from Iraq, which would destabilize the country, after John McCain, George Bush and General Petraeus have won the war? Will liberal Democrats ram through the Freedom of Choice Act, hate crimes laws, the Fairness Doctrine and a massive amnesty in their first 100 days? We’ll find out soon.

this is very interesting.

Last night I printed out a map with the electoral votes for each state and filled in each state blue or red as they were calling it. (I tried not watching, but there was nothing else for me to do! "if you can't beat em, join em") I stopped filling them in when Obama was at 207 and McCain at 138. Realized mr. O had it b/c California wasn't a battleground state.

I was curious to see the final outcome.

...who knows when my blogging will turn away from politics.

one good thing came of it...

At least a few states got it right. California, Arizona & Florida voted to keep marriage for a man & woman. read more.

disgusted.

The terrorists have 2 months to plan. Biden already spilled the beans on that. 

People, what have you done?! 

All truth will come out in time.

I can't take hearing anything more from that man. 

Seriously America, ugh.

not good.

the poor people that have to work at the White House.

he is not the savior.

okay, let's just review all his promises. that might be difficult because he changed his mind and his words so many times. 

tax cuts?? for middle class. raise taxes on the wealthy.

abortion -- at any term. he's all for killing in the womb.

gay marriage - will be possible.

will he be sworn in on the koran? most likely.

this is scary.

he'll end the war promptly. the lives sacrificed, Lord I hope, will not be for nothing. 

he'll open the doors for all muslims to freely enter our country.

Our economy is going to be kaputs. we will be paying for gas, energy, all bills out of our ears.

God help us. Lord, you are our leader no matter what. We trust in YOU.

I'm reminded of the Fred Hammond song:

"oh Lord, forgive us. Heal our land, as we turn our faces back toward you!

'if my people which are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray!

seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from Heaven.

I'll forgive their sins, and heal their land'....."

more shocking, disgusting...

I can NOT, not, not not not... believe that he has even gotten this far in the campaign. Thanks to his terrorist friends and funding via ACORN this anti-American is still in the race to actually become president. I can not believe how blind soo many (what I thought were) intelligent people have been caught up with him?!!?

Here's more info that leaks out about him. The media is covering so much up. Why?!?

Sept 2008 Gen. Bill Ginn USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain why he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played. The General stated to the Senator that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171... During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. At the very least, 'Stand and Face It.' Senator Obama replied, "As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides, there are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute it. We should consider to reinvent our National Anthem as well as to redesign our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love. It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we as a Nation of warring people, should conduct ourselves as the nations of Islam, whereas peace prevails, perhaps a state or period of mutual concord between our governments. When I become President, I will seek a pact or agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation have placed upon the nations of Islam an unfair injustice. My wife disrespects the Flag for many personal reasons. Together she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past, many years ago."

• First of all "I'd like to teach the world to sing" is the most corny, cheeziest song. Are you kidding me? National Anthem? DING DONG. 
  
• And, taking sides? uh, because becoming president isn't taking sides? Just what are your plans?
  
• Obsurd: the American flag is a symbol of oppression? Seriously? what planet are you on. MOR-ON.
  
• Secondly, who in their right mind would say "sure, the president of my country doesn't have to salute our flag. That's just an old tradition." Now that is politically incorrect. But it seems the media and the left has it the other way around(?)
• Great, the guy running for president burns his own country's flag, admits to it and still has a following.  ...Is this happening?

Have you caught my drift yet?! no? ok, here's more.

Here's a snippet that I thought was wonderfully stated from Gary Bauer's 10-29-08 End of Day:

"Instead, after going through the longest campaign in history, all I see is a far left Chicago liberal who bought his house with help from a convicted felon, who worshipped in the church of a crazed pastor who cursed our country and whose friendships include way too many anti-American radicals and terrorist sympathizers. And now, far from offering us hope, he is offering us socialism, and his campaign is riddled with scandals."

And from today's End of Day:

'Today, I have two op-eds published. In the Washington Times, you can read my thoughts on the importance of this election to the courts and the culture war. USA Today picked up on the same theme today, noting, “A single court appointee could decide whether abortion laws become more restrictive or more permissive and whether Roe v. Wade remains the law.” '

Keep America, America people! Land of the free, home of the brave. (not roll overs) Don't let it turn into a doormat for the world -- not to mention terrorists to come on in and kill us all b/c that's their beliefs!

I really don't know that I can say anything more, but you never know what else may come to surface.

*vote McPalin! ;)*

wake up, voters

Obama sure can speak out of both sides of his mouth with much ease.

Lest not I forget to mention his amazing skill of back-pedaling as well. 

"The Post-American World" -- (it's a muslim view).

ok, let's review: the extremist muslims were the ones who attacked our country on September 11, 2001. The muslims hate the United States. 

review time is over.

now THAT, people, is something to be cautious of! Do you want a man for president just b/c his best quality is that he is "eloquent"???

So, I'm sure he'll be eloquent when he has one foot in Washington and one foot in Saudi Arabia too, huh?

Economy, economy, economy. Sure, we're in a tough crunch right now. but this surely can't last forever. Do you want our awesome country to be torn down to a crumble just because we were in a tough economic time, so we went with the more eloquent guy?

Hello people - here is your WAKE UP CALL!

WHO are you voting for. what are their standards? B/c THAT is what they will be taking to Washington, not the economy. and just b/c some guy is elected to office, doesn't mean he'll save the economy with a magic wand. Neither of them have a superman's cape on saying "Economy Savior." 

• one is (sooooo) Pro-abortion. THAT MEANS he believes in killing babies.  [obama]
  
• the other is pro-life. he is FOR that baby - he wants to give that child a chance to live. to be adopted, to be loved. give the child a chance to live. [mccain]
• one has (many, many) ties to the middle east. and is quick to side-step the questions directly relating to that. [duh, obama]
• one has many years of service to the country. probably more years than the other candidate has been alive for. He served in the military; was a prisoner of war; and has been involved in politics for many years now. [mccain, duh.]

* Let me make it even more plain and simple: McCain is the old white guy. Obama is the half black - half white guy, but denies any white ties or relations whatsoever.

So readers of this blog - heed the warnings, it's been plainly laid out for you. please use your head. who do you want to be the leader of your country as your children grow up.

and yes, I watched some of the debate tonight-- thus spurring this entry!
