So now the government owns your GM or Chrysler warranties. I can remember a year or so ago as I cried out against universal health care that we should watch out as the government may someday take over car repair. It was a joke! Now it’s not.

Have you driven a Ford lately?

Just in case you doubted that President Obama is still in campaign mode:

Seriously?  We will be asked to sign a pledge to President Obama?  Does this not concern anyone?

Well, my personal plan (should a lovely volunteer approach me) is to engage the Obamabot in conversation.  Perhaps I’ll discuss Obama’s appearance on Jay Leno and how it upset me, a mother of a child with Down syndrome, that our president so easily, so casually, was able to make a joke at my son’s expense.  Perhaps I will discuss the Illinois version of the Born Alive Infant Protection Act and how Barack Obama was able to hear testimony about  how a baby with Down syndrome was born alive after an abortion and left to die on a shelf and Obama was still able to coldly vote against the act.  Perhaps we’ll discuss exactly what s/he is doing asking me to sign a pledge of loyalty?

I will take up the volunteer’s time because time spent with me is time taken away from getting other people to pledge their souls away.

Operation Disorganizing for America – engage the volunteers for as long as you can and waste their time.  Be cordial, be informative and be strong.
