I'm disappointed in the Catholic vote. I'm saddened to think that there are so many Catholics who voted for someone who is the biggest pro-abortion candidate. EVER. This even after so many bishops stated that it's a grave sin to do so because abortion is intrinsically evil. There's no way around that.
Another thing that bothers me. The end never justifies the means to me. Too many people voted for our new president because of his race. To do was not called racist but to vote for McCain because he is white would have been called so. To me there's no difference. Voting for our president elect just to have an African American as president despite what his beliefs are is plain wrong. Race shouldn't have been an issue for the African American community. Values and ideals should've been. Don't tell me that race wasn't an issue. It was. Check out the Harlem videos of people who had no idea what the issues were. Oh, and I'm not a racist. I've been on the receiving end of discrimination and racism. I know what it feels like and I don't discriminate. EVER.
One more thing. In California, they passed a measure that would require egg-laying chickens have bigger cages. What a great country we live in that the chickens are given more room but the unborn are sacrificed.
ETA: I feel robbed too because I can't celebrate the first election of an African American to the highest office of this country.
This morning when Sister woke up, I told her who had won. Her response? "Impossible." She could not understand why people would choose the culture of death over life. I couldn't even begin to explain to her that people were choosing to sacrifice the life of the unborn for economic policy.
