This is only the second installment of my "Politics Wednesday" posts and it's going to be a disappointment. At least, it is for me.
Straight out of the gate, I was going to take on one of the major issues the media covers constantly. But after some consideration, I figured it might be a good idea to get a run down of each of the candidates' platform. Then as I was trying to put the list together of all of them I realized it was just too much information (probably why most of us just use what little the news sound bytes give us). Then I was going to do only the front-runners.
But due to the kind of week I've had, I'm only going to point you in the direction of WashingtonPost.com's candidate breakdown which seems more in depth than most of the other news sites I used while researching. I do apologize. I had great hopes for this week's post but lil' Monkey's virus just isn't getting better. Also, if you go to the home page of my web site, I have a nifty little widget on there from WashingtonPost.com that does a brief run down of each of them with the latest news headlines on each.
Will try to do more next week.

thanks for the link! don't worry about this week being a bust, there's lots more to come. life happens. :-)
Fred Thompson has a nice chart comparing the top Republican candidates at:
http://www.fred08.com/Principles/PrinciplesSummary.aspx.
There are 4 links at the bottom of this page you can click on that compare where each candidate stands on Family Values Issues; 2nd Amendment Rights and Crime; Securing America's Borders and Fiscal Responsibility.
www.fred08.com is the main page if for some reason the above link doesn't work to get back into the charts.
My latest thoughts on politics are at www.homeschoolblogger.com/Hediedforme.
Feel better, thinking of you!

Has nothing to do with politics, but how much do you love the free credit report commercials going on right now? They are on all the time on 1230 AM. CRACK ME UP!!!
That's a good link, thanks! And take it easy. You've had a rough week! I hope everyone is feeling better.
