I even went to Colorado Springs to see Sarah Palin when she was in town. (She looked great, by the way, and has an amazing ability to fire up a crowd.)<BR/><BR/>I was sealed in the Oakland temple and it made my heart sink to see the protesters there.

But, I don't think I can do the Tammy Faye thing (looked like tarantulas on her eyes).<BR/><BR/>I'm so disturbed by what's happening to the members in CA that are supporting prop. 8. They are being targeted by a website that's found out who contributed to the fund to pass prop. 8 and people are trying to dig up dirt on these members just because they are using their right of freedom of speech. Very scary. People who support gay rights are crossing the line.<BR/><BR/>I saw McCain when he was in Durango. Great speech, but the Obama supporters were so disrespectful with their profane signs and things they shouted out of their cars. They need to grow up.<BR/><BR/>And, I just found out that Obama wants to draft women into the military. Is that scary or what?Rebecca Talleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01969923131001170254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-74253902896293106372008-10-28T10:47:00.000-06:002008-10-28T10:47:00.000-06:00I'm sick of it, too!

And it doesn't matter what the issue is. I felt the same way when some parents in my neighborhood protested a hotel that may or may not be built near our local elementary school. <BR/><BR/>Either way, I am reminded of our most recent General Conference of the Church where our leaders taught us about hope and peace.
