Paul and I have sent out cards at Christmas time for 25 years, praying for peace to all nations, love in the hearts of all people. I rather resent the idea that some folks have that just because we are conservative we desire war. Odd, that.

However I hear it brightened up a bit later. I was sorry to hear Obama kind of unsure of himself at the start and just kept repeating the same thing about taxes again and again...of sourse the other one did the same !! I hear that somthing like 60 million...or was it 8 million !! watched the debate so fingers crossed they managed to watch to the end. Like you I am a love and peace person///as I think you already know LOl Love Sybil xx<br><br>http://journals.aol.co.uk/sybilsybil45/villagelife/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098209577865673818.post-9291683457835361042008-09-26T23:25:00.000-07:002008-09-26T23:25:00.000-07:00Then I'm weird too!

I feel out of place when I wear my Peace shirt to family funtions, and I have believed in Peace my entire life. Well before this war! Matter of fact I have been deciding if I would be Peace, and Malayna Love, and Lisa Happiness for Halloween. Lisa thinks it's a good Idea, but we will be something else too! We have a couple get together's this year. I have always wished that the debates would allow other parties to engage in the debates as well! I too know who I'm going to vote for, but neither was my first, or second choice. I hope people vote with hearts and minds this time! I know many people vote for just a party, rather than the better person! Ha Ha There are too many stubborn people in this world, atleast I know when to admit when I'm wrong. I find that people who grow up brainwashed by their family's, on how to think can go only 2 ways. With the current or against it. I hope that the majority will go with the flow and choose what is best for humanity!<br><br>I hope you can persuade your family to talk about the love for each other, and simply enjoy the time spent together. I know it can be tough to be the peacemaker, but you have the gift of humor! Enjoy your day!<br><br>Peace and Love,<br><br>Earth Spirit<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> <br><br><br><br><br><br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098209577865673818.post-8089155845833453122008-09-27T05:38:00.000-07:002008-09-27T05:38:00.000-07:00I think some of the negativity may be due to the d...I think some of the negativity may be due to the drug culture thing. I remember certain folks in the 80s also being very give Peace A Chance while under the sway of mood altering chemicals. They loved me, they loved you, they loved the maple tree out back, until the coke ran out. <br><br>Also, I knew a passionately liberal, peace & love, authentic(well, that is was he said) person online for years. Then he became angered by something I wrote, & peace & love quickly turned into abuse & using fake screen names to attack me & my journal. <br><br>It would be great if what everyone writes in their Holiday cards was actually what they practiced all year long, & for you I bet it is, but it is not for everyone. That is my cold-eyed assessment.

I did and I felt that beside Obama McCain looked old. He also stood over and smirlked and as far as I am concerned was condesending twoard Obama, but I think Obama did quite well he did not let McCain get away with his lies. When McCain menrtioned his strong mate, meaning Sarah Palin I nearly lost my dinner. I think Obama will only get better with time.

I do not trust nor particularly like either candidate and no debate is going to change that because i do not trust these dudes..SO, i will be at work and not watching but i will read what is said about them. There are gobs of ways to keep informed.<br>Enjoy your family dinner!

Given the post-debate reaction, I bet McCain makes an effort in the next debate to suppress his smirk and make some eye contact with Obama.<br>Of course, the third debate could carry less signficance after the veep candidates face off Thursday night. Given her performances with Katie Couric and her limited media interaction, I think there's an outside chance Palin will struggle mightily. If she falls on her face, Obama could have a cakewalk to the White House. That would be something to see!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9098209577865673818.post-76237759190641246412008-09-28T11:40:00.000-07:002008-09-28T11:40:00.000-07:00I often use "peace" in my closings, my m...I often use "peace" in my closings, my mom was a hippie, flower child so I practically had a peace sign tattooed on me as a toddler. I wish more people would look towards peace and peaceful resolutions to conflict. Nah, you aren't wierd for being stoked about the debate.
