Law Degree Not Needed

Recently someone sent me yet another "forward" email with all the same old false rhetoric about ObamaCare.

This falling on the eve of the elections, naturally.

I, as always, replied with the REAL facts, just the facts ma'am.

Then, after the elections my "vote straight Republican" hate everything Obama, or Democrat, Texas friend sent me another email that read as follows:

"Glad to see you have your law degree and have completely read all of Obamacare. I have not, so I rely on others to explain it to me. Thanks. Glad to see the Republicans took over the house and Nancy Pigosi is out !!! She was a nut case !!!"

My response? Of course I just had to put it here on my blog:

Ha ha ha . . Law degree . . Did date a lawyer for 7 years. Long enough not to trust them.

I just read a lot, listen to a lot of speeches, and watch shows like Meet the Press, etc, that has representatives from all sides.

I also look into things and study wanting to know the facts, not just read things someone writes (those with hate agendas) and posts on the Internet. I would never send information, and certainly NEVER believe all information sent, that I did not check out first. Don't need a law degree to read, watch, and listen.

Also, I am not a Democrat or a Republican. Never vote straight party. That would be extremely narrow minded and counter productive. Also that would be lazy and wouldn't require learning facts and finding information. Blind trust is just not my thing. To believe one party has all the answers is absurd.

There are good ideas on both sides. No one has all the answers.

It would be nice if everyone would look at individuals, respect individuals (and individual rights) and not simply blindly follow just one side.

Seems like there is way too much hate going around. Way too much false information . . . and down right lies, in order to justify and continue this hate.

Some of my Republican candidates that I voted for won. Some of my Republican candidates I voted for did not. Some of my Democratic candidates I voted for won and some did not.

Bottom line, as I said, I want individual rights, keep an open mind to differences in opinion, and have respect for others instead of following falsehoods born from hateful agendas.

You know that old saying: "You can't please all the people all the time." . . . Well, it actually seems more like: "You can't please any of the people any of the time."
