Would you believe ...
Five things about me that most people would NEVER believe. Hell, I have a hard time believing them about myself:
1. I voted for Clinton/Gore in 92 and 96.
2. I used to have a picture of Al Gore on my desk in the newsroom in Durant, Okla.
3. I used to have a "I'm the face of Pro-Choice America" sticker on my car.
4. I used to have an Ann Richards shirt and worked for her Texas gubernatorial campaign as a volunteer while in college.
5. I was a registered Democrat.

Um, I for one believe that. You used to hate the idea of having a gun in the house much less keeping it loaded. Now we have more than that loaded, not to mention the ones that aren't!
Doesn't Hannity have a saying about that?

No idea on Hannity. I was an idealistic journalist and it showed politically!

Well I was right there with you...though I did ended up not voting for Clinton in 96...after Mini-Uzz (aka Pickle or Boo) was born, I began to open my eyes and saw the LIGHT!!! I actually voted for the Libertarian that year I think. Believe it or not, I still have the yard signs for both the Ann Richards and Clinton/Gore campaigns that we had...even have a Clinton/Gore t-shirt...maybe one day I will burn them!!! Except for Ann...at least she LOVES Texas!!! Thank goodness we both turned from the dark side...our kiddo could have ended up a Sith.

It amazes me to reflect on my life and see how I have changed. Most of the changes came from becoming a mother and realizing that the little Catholic slogan is true: it is a child, not a choice. That just sort of started the ball rolling toward my more conservative leaning ways more and more. I have lots of people who tell me I'm probably more of a libertarian than Republican and they may be right, except for the legalizing drugs thing. But, then again, I waffle on that stance, too. One minute, I see the justifications in legalizing it, and the next I think that is a horrible idea and we should maintain the status quo.

I would be ashamed to admit that I voted for an immoral adulter. I bet you would even vote for Hilary.
I am proud of our Christian President Bush. My son is fighting for your freedom and the freedom of your family.

It is a shame that you didn't read more posts than this one ... you'd understand that the post was to show how much I've changed since I was a young girl.
Now, I'm a monster Pres. Bush supporter and voted for him in both elections. I'm pro-life and very much a supporter of the troops and this war on terror.
I hope you don't go away from my blog thinking I'm like that now.
