Voting

So the hubs and I will be voting tomorrow...how 'bout those Mavericks? Seriously, I am not going to get on a soapbox and let you know who to vote for or why...well....I guess I could, it is our blog, right? So...we are voting for McCain/Palin...and yes, I know they are both far from perfect. But I choose them, well, we choose them. For us, we will be backing the ticket that supports what we believe in...neither of them believe in everything we believe, that is a given. So we choose what is most important to us, to the moral fiber of our country. So we are against the overturning of the Defense of Marriage Act...we believe and stand firmly behind marriage and that it should be between one man and one woman. Obama has been quoted as saying this is one of the first things he will overturn. Not OK. Also, we are both against abortion. Especially partial birth abortion...which Obama voted against the ban of partial birth abortions. Does that mean we have a right to judge or look down on those who choose these things for their life? No, not at all...we both have these circumstances in our family either past or present...all of us sin and fall short of the glory of God...we love them wholeheartedly. But we have to support the candidate that will stand up for what we are passionate about. It will not only affect us and our country but the country of our children, their children, and their children, etc. I know that financially, this choice isn't going to be great for our pocketbook, and that's OK. But for us to give God any less would just be unacceptable.
