Politics.....YUCK!

So, this is not going to be some right-winged, liberal, conservative, or moderate blog. Its just me doing the best I can to understand issues concerning this country using my mind, upbringing and faith. Politics in general are taxing and tidious. I mean, its a great thing to be knowledgeable on issues and who stands for what. Lets face it though, NO candidate EVER holds true to everything they say in order to get elected! THEY ALL LIE, or stretch the truth or fib......it's just part of being in a public office and running for a public office! Dare I say it, but BOTH democrats and republicans lie! The stereotypical thing is to assume that most christians are republicans and that most celebrities are democrats. I for one, am neither democrat nor repulican. I believe that they both have strong viewpoints, but they both royally stink in many ways too! I am all for a new political party called the "Better" party! A party that is actually open minded to believe that there are smart people in both parties and listening and respecting both CAN be accomplished! Is it just me or would more problems get solved if everyone was willing to compromise? There are some issues that can't be compromised, I realize this. Many can, however! I'm not saying that everyone getting along and being all cheerful is realistic, just a nice thought! Like I said, I am not going to share my personal beliefs of issues, but what I am going to say is that I REFUSE to vote for a candidate just because they have a "republican" title or "democrat" title! I have voted across party lines before because I agreed more with the other candidate then the one in my own party! Its called listening and understanding. Don't be fooled by labels! Anyway, I guess I have rambled on long enough! TATA for now!
