I am a fan of progressive radio, the greener the better, I recently discovered MSNBC because of Rachel Maddow show, she is from progressive radio. I will never watch another cable news network, before I found MSNBC my local tv news provided more accurate information than cable news. The truth is out there we just have to know where to find it. Today we have so many resources at our disposal that being uninformed is just plain …

So I understand your rant here Steve and rest assured WE THE PEOPLE DON’T EVEN KNOW THE HALF OF IT.

I have one thing to share, everyone make sure you get 10 people to the polling station to vote on or before Nov 4.

As my business has grown I have unsubscribed to many blogs and newsletters. Yours is one of a handful I will keep. You are so wise and insightful with your words of wisdom. As I struggle to balance motherhood, marriage and being a mompreneur, many times I feel like you are speaking directly to me and many times your words are what gets me through that day with a smile instead of a scowl.

I wanted to say thank you.

I second Daniel’s statement. Well said.

On a side note, we have a shortage of something else in this nation: integrity. The losers refuse to accept that fact, and are shaming the whole nation into a deep ditch so that they might feel better about their miscalculations.

On a side note to that, I would feel pretty bad if I bought a house between 2004 and now. A family that I know bought a house in 2005 and lost it. They were lied to — I saw the contract and I know the timeline. The mortgage company actually sold their previous home before papers were signed, insisted that the actions were consistent with the “earnest money” they had put down (their house), and that they were doing my parents a favor. The statute of limitations has passed. The home is, obviously, worth much less than they paid for it. The family is in the process of filing bankruptcy now. They too think this bailout is unnecessary, despite their loss.

We need more integrity in this nation. No one person is inherently better than any other. Hard work and dedication should should be rewarded, not the promise of it.

That’s it, Steve. I’m voting for you as President in November.

Pack your bags, you’re moving on up to the White House!
