I feel my gut starting to wrench when women start talking about politics. They shouldn't do it and shouldn't have the vote. I notice when the going gets tough women start posting pictures of puppies on here. When I think of what world leaders have to deal with compared to the trivialities that started the puppy posting it really hits home. Women should live in their own little worlds and bake cookies instead of coming up with half baked policies based on wishy washy concepts of making people feel good.
Oopss I guess you were talking about me:p I just like to solve problems with puppies...I know I know I gotta change that.
But well, this needs a nother puppy ...well, dog:

I was speaking in more general terms than just the Presidency. More to the point, I often wonder why many christians feel they couldn't become involved in politics. I ask this because I'm considering running for an office in a few years if I stay here.
Hmmm you should run for presidency...Julianna for president!:D
I don't know a lot about politics but we definitely need people with a real concern. :)

I can't imagine wanting to be President :) I would have to agree with one of the folks I admire most about THAT office (Colin Powell).

P.S. Keep it up with the puppies. :) If one could make him yawn, a whole litter might render him unconscious.

please be a troll please be a troll please be a troll

dont make me have to get out the bat. cause I will. I will get out the bat and brandish it menacingly while I look at you in disdain.
A troll? Where do all of you fictional species types come from? How about a Smurf instead? Anyhow, honey, why don't you put the bat down and pick up the lipstick. I'm sure we'll both be happier if you look good while you look at me in disdain.

I have serious concerns about health care too, Sooner. So does the medical profession. The baby boomers are about to retire in droves and begin to qualify for Medicare. A few years later, it'll be nursing home time and Medicaid will enter the picture.

Social security, protection of family and marriage, job creation, debt reduction, globalization, defense issues, so many areas of concern.

I wish I'd taken more political science. My Masters is in criminal justice.

Both the Dems and Reps have gotten so far off point. The ideal of both parties working together for the common good is like a pipe dream. So many personal agendas and ambitions are in the way. Hard to predict how it will all play out...
See? This is just what I am talking about. Your cookie plans were so much better than this. Now don't get me wrong. I'm sure Hilary Clinton makes as good of a puppet as do Obama and Dubya for their true masters Hank Paulsen, Alan Greenspan, George Lucas and the rest of the New World Order conspirators. But if y'all had just put more time into looking good and having more babies many of these problems wouldn't be happening anyways.

Hahaha yeah don't think I'll ever give up with my puppies!! Sorry persecuted:) I'm such a girl.... I can't help it.
Well of course you're right, I'm just saying you should stay away from anything political or even remotely controversial so you don't have to keep whipping out those puppies for all to see. You do know that this thing attracts people from around the world and in countries like Thailand they eat dogs don't you? Just saying, stop making people hungry its not nice of you.


Finally, I don't know why some on here are so convinced that what I say on here is "trolling". Its actually very interesting once one discovers for real that a woman could much less impress me with her knowledege of Iraq than with her rack. Please quit trying to be men and understand your greater callings in life.

I find politics very important, and it also gets you a could profile of people who claim to be Christian. Obviously if they have a liberal voting record they a) Don't care, b) Live a liberal Christian Life as well, or c) are totally uninformed and voting at the seat of their pants. Of course there's others who are indifferent and don't vote at all, leaving the country to popular liberal demand.

In particular I think you should research all the possible votes and choose the most moral. Usually it's Republican based on the final votes, though I have found much interesting things coming from the Constitution Party e.g. Chuck Baldwin. Sadly they haven't won since the 17th century.
Constitution Party National Political Headquarters -- Party Homepage.

I also keep up with various civil rights groups and the AFA.
Save the Internet | Join the fight for Internet Freedom -- Democratic but good information on internet freedoms we take for granted.
American Family Association -- Great information on marriage laws and religious freedom etc.
ACLU - Privacy, It's About Power -- Info on National ID Card
Electronic Frontier Foundation | Defending Freedom in the Digital World -- Privacy Laws
Campaign For Liberty -- Constitutional rights

I think since the founding of our nation, if we had to fight so long and hard for these rights we should be using them. Politics changes the future, change the future, change the world. That can be good or evil based on popular demand. The least we can do is vote conservatively. This doesn't always mean republican/democratic either. Just vote based on what you know is right, and also research research research. :)

Important Morals:
1) Life of a child (abortion)
2) Life of the marriage (same-sex marriages destroys families)
3) All else second place, but equally important.

You can get on the issues information at various sources:
Voter Guides | Christian Coalition of America

Good luck out there, and let's not all play dead and let the country go down hill shall we? :)

2) Life of the marriage (same-sex marriages destroys families)
Really you know a lot of guys that would leave their families if they could marry another dude? I mean seriosuly it not like the gay guys are going around marrying women for lack of other choices. So I don't see the point of this argument. And besides people can have a family and not be married.

As a christian single, which political issues are foremost in your mind/affect you the most?
The issue that affects me the most at the current time is economic policy, that's true for most people right now but it changes.
Issues at the front of my mind are abortion and same sex marriage/gay rights in general.
These issues, although moreso recently gay rights are always in the news and caussing some kind of conflict which has an affect on my life, and everyones.


I often find myself wondering why more christians don't run for office. Why do you think that is?
I think more christians don't run for office because they see the sad reality that one of two things will happen, either they will end up compromising thier faith in the name of doing what small amount of good the system allows for or they will hold steady and be out of a job not long after getting it and will be completely ineffecitve while they are there.

I don't accept any case that pushes the idea that religion and politics are incompatible, I just think that humans at this point in time lack the collective wisdom to make it happen, and in freedom loving countries, it can only happen collectively.

Politics and single
There actually was a bit of a "thing" lately as a female politician had missused her power to bring down someone who threatened her because they were in relation with her x husband.
She used her contacts, incited hate upon this woman and did really horrible things.
Actual criminal things and as she had incited hate she was not alone.
She covered it up well and noone could of thought she was capable of doing the things she did but the truth came out in the end, luckily for this other woman who had been hurt by it.

Well let's see....

Insane asylums should be reinstated, for all levels for the mentally ill.

Prisoners convicted of any crimes should have no rights, and shall be treated lower than dirt.

Borders should be locked all 4 directions and violators, with out reasonable cause, should be dealt with.

The founder and anyone who works for wikileaks should be extradited and hung for crimes against the state.

Politicians should stay out of the military's way IE approve the funding and let the generals who know how to lead, lead not the desk jockeys in congress.

The fatally flawed welfare system should be heavily reformed so that those who REALLY need it, get it, not these lazy good for nothings that abuse the system and contribute nothing.

Just some of my top political ideals
