I'M STILL TRYING

I'M STILL TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM POLITICAL POSTS. TODAY I JUST MIGHT MAKE IT. Naw, probably not,but let's see what comes out of this computer keyboard.
There has been much in the news the last few weeks or more on the political scene. The one that dominated it was the Kavanaugh supreme hearings and well, you know the rest. I have a definitive opinion on a lot of that but will refrain from getting into that as the deal is over and settled. For now.
President Trump is making a political swing through parts of the country and making his usual brash comments. He was not my President of choice, but I preferred him over Hillary. Still do. But I so wish that he would just go about being President and keep his mouth and twitter shut. I think things would go much better.
Speaking of Hillary. Did you see her comments on the Me Too Movement. She thinks that the accusations against Kavanaugh were legitimate even though the proof was skimpy as best and controversial. But the accusations against Bill raping a woman, where evidence was in place and many people know about it almost immediately was different. Her claims are ridiculous but they were and are being ignored and Bill and her are starting on a speaking tour where people are ask to pay several hundred of dollars to listen to their vitriol. I wouldn't go to one of their speeches if you paid me several hundred dollars.  Those two people are evil along with many of their associates.  I know many will disagree with me, but this is my post and my opinion. 
My wife and I voted yesterday. We voted early for reasons which I will not mention here. OK I will. We just wanted to and we could. Many people call for term limits on our members in congress. I agree. But there are term limits in a way. They were not hired for a permanent job. If you don't like them, vote them out. That would limit their term. Unfortunately, too many people like them and voting them out is often difficult, so term limits would be the way to go. Also unfortunately, they are the ones to put this into motion and they are not going to limit their selves to term limits. 
I hate to think that there is people here in our state that is against the states economy. But there is and they are running for office. I try to look at all things that people stand for and vote accordingly. Yesterday, when I voted i did not vote a straight ticket.  I did vote for a few members of what I will call the opposing party. People that I thought were doing a good job or that would do a good job. After the election we will see who sins and if we, the people, lose. 
I don't care what your politics are, or which party you affiliate with, please get out and vote. Your vote counts. But when you do go vote, please study the candidates and what they stand for. Mainly, but not limited to, do they support the constitution and all amendments. Unfortunately, there are many across the country that not only want to abolish the 1st or 2nd amendment, but want to abolish the entire constitution. The movement is there, small right now but growing. Pay attention to that and the candidates who support that theory. If enough of them get elected, we will be in big trouble.
Well, enough for now. Have a good election year and get out and vote. And THAT'S THE VIEW FROM THE DITCH BANK
