Obama Mama
I had this very long…and, quite frankly, very boring post all planned out about why everyone should be voting for Obama. After reading it and passing out on my own keyboard I realized a few things. One…highly unlikely any McCain/Palin voters are reading little ol’ Needles crunchfest of a blog. Two…what more can be said. Unless you own a large corporation and are currently enjoying huge tax loopholes that prevent you from paying your fair share and are looking forward to the huge financial profits of shifting your jobs to poor countries where there are no pesky human rights or environmental regulations, or are a staunch…and I mean staunch ..not even in the case of rape or incest Right-to-Lifer, or you are simply a blatant out and out racist, there are really NO justifications for voting for McCain.
So what could little ol’ me possibly SAY that would change the minds of the previously listed? Well…what I can DO, besides voting and contributing to his campaign, is put the girls to work. My message is going on my boobs. That’s right. How many times have you tried to have a quasi serious political discussion with a guy just to realize he is playing “guess the cup size” in his little brain? You’ve got something important to say…a message worth hearing and remembering…boob it up sister! Found the above number on Etsy. Says it all…and its 100% organic cotton of course.

Where’s my “These Rocks are for Barack” speedo?
Except I’m not a mama!
Yeah, I don’t think it’s necessary for us crunchier-than-crunchy bloggers to be trying to talk up Obama. But there ARE some things we can do:
1) Encourage our readers to vote. Most of them wouldn’t vote for McCain, but they also might not vote at all. Let’s make sure everyone votes.
2) Encourage our readers to quit with all the freakin’ negativity. I swear, I got so sick of hearing, “Our side’s gonna lose. He’s doing the campaign all wrong. Our side’s gonna lose again.” Just quit already. Get out and do something about it. Volunteer for the campaign. But quit with the negativity.
Not you — you are not negative. I’m just saying these are the kinds of posts we could be writing even if we don’t feel the need to talk up our candidate.
Wow. I feel better already.
Well said Beth. The people who made my shirt also make Obama loving non-mama shirts too. Just because you aren’t a mama, doesn’t mean your girls can’t help get the word out!
Oh…and they even send it without any plastic.
