I love arguing politics with people...especially with Wayne & Rhonda...especially Rhonda...because she gets so ruffled up!
One thing that particularly gets on my nerves though is when people (especially those who know my political views) forward emails to me defaming political candidates. I have received no less than 27 emails on subjects ranging from Obama's not pledging to the flag, to his values, to his campaign financing, to distorted family photos. The problem is most of these email forwards claim to have checked out on snopes.com, a website dedicated to determining the truthfulness of email forwards and other urban legends. However, when you actually READ the article on snopes.com the forwards are proven wrong...People, people, people...check your sources...nothing makes you look like a donkey's behind more than passing along these things. I like a funny picture, a joke, whatever, as much as the next guy, but please, for the love of Mike, the three of you that may read this, check your sources!

While I personally am the opposite of an Obama fan, I do not forward on e-mails such as the ones you refer to. Those annoy me, too...they're obviously fabricated. I'd prefer to vote for a person or not vote for him based on his credentials and what I know about his decision making, not his middle name or his preacher.
Unfortunately, I'm not exactly pumped about McCain either. Maybe I'll find some way to hybernate for the next 4-8 years.
