People tell me there are actual people who would welcome McCain in the whitehouse
Would you trust your lives to this guy? Seriously?

Obama is an arrogant, arugula eating, fancy-berry-tea drinking celebrity
Who are these people??? I just wish I could afford something like those $520 Ferragamo shoes McCain wears.

Think and hope
First, a quote from Bill Clinton. Unquestioningly the best president to serve during the past 30 years: Now one of Clinton's laws of politics is this: If one candidate's trying to scare you and the other one's trying to get you to think, if one candidate's appealing to your fears and the other one's appealing to your hopes, you better vote for the person who wants you to think and hope. Second, a silly Hillary Clinton campaign ad running currently Third and final, a response from Barack Obama.

A mountain range in Yosemite Park, perhaps?

Our second day full day in Washington is over and we (me) took a lot of pictures. We started out by going to the National Zoo, mostly to see the Pandas. We did in fact find them, and they were everything we'd hope. Beautiful and funny creatures. We stayed until around 1PM and decided to head back towards the mall so we could check out the National Archives. The National Archives is the home of many important documents from America's history. We were able to see and photograph the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, and the Constitution. Also ...

First full day in Washington, DC
We're on vacation this week in Washington DC and it's been so much fun! Today we decided that we would venture towards the Smithsonian. Specifically, the Air & Space Museum, which we enjoyed thoroughly. I've always loved space, and this place has everything. After spending a few hours in the museum, we ate lunch and walked to further down Jefferson to the Capitol Building. It was beautiful, but as we got close, the capitol police swept down and drove everyone back down to the reflecting pool. It was quite odd and we didn't get to enjoy seeing the building up ...
