One week from today, Americans will head to the polling places to make a decision about what to do with their politicians. I hope that the electorate will keep those who voted against the mandates that have been imposed on us, get rid of those that thwarted the will of The People and replace them with candidates that will represent and listen.
As a nineteen year old young woman, I am sickened by the way politicians in D.C have ignored even me when I have said I don't want these mandates and I don't want to pay off a national debt that is going to hurt, no destroy, my dreams and future! I have said this to Joe Miller when I once called into KBYR and when I spoke with a candidate, Jill Rowland, who's running for my district in Congress against Louise Slaughter, the author of the Slaughter Solution in the Obamacare debate.
When I think about this year's midterm elections, I think about this song that Krista Branch performs:
Be strong and keep the faith! November 2, 2010 is coming!

Lee-Ellen: Gods Plan
Sarah Palin posted the link to this video on her Facebook. It's such an inspiring song and story and I can't stop watching it! Individuals like this child are joys to be around. I say this not just because it's what I hear, but also because I know from personal experience as a former volunteer at a riding facility for individuals with special needs.

Breast Cancer Awareness

According to the National Cancer Society, Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results show that when my grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1998, the percentage of women diagnosed was around 87 per cent and the death rate was around 83 per cent. About nine years later (and a year before my grandmother's battle ended in death), the percentage of documented women dropped to around 53 per cent and the death rate increased to around 89 per cent.
I was six years old when my grandma was diagnosed with breast cancer. I don't recall knowing about it until years later when it relapsed and my parents and grandparents found out that her stage of breast cancer was misdiagnosed. By then it was too late, I guess, to eliminate the cancer completely since it had spread.
When I reached my teen years, the appointments for treatments became more frequent. I didn't think about them much at first, but I soon got a true understanding of what was going on when I was entering my Sophomore Year in high school. It was the summer of 2007 and I couldn't visit my grandparents for two weeks as I had in the past. Grandma's cancer was practically debilitating her so that she couldn't do the things we used to do together.
A year later on August 28, 2008 Grandma's battle with cancer ended after nearly 17 days on hospice care. In the two years since then, I have done research on breast cancer. I found that breast cancer can be passed on generation to generation. This means that both me and my mom could be at risk for being diagnosed at ages than my grandma.
My advice to women: if you have a relative who's been diagnosed with breast cancer, check with your doctor to find information on this type of cancer. You can also find information on breast cancer at Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

UNBELIEVABLE!
Make custom Glitter Graphics
Just when I think President Obama can't get anymore annoying, he and the LSM push my buttons yet again!
Just a few minutes ago, I was watching one of my local news channels and the anchor mentions that Obama is "reaching out" to young voters in New York State and telling them to vote Democrat. The channel hasn't shown any footage of this and I doubt they will.
It makes me sick that Obama is taking sides in the midterm elections. The President isn't supposed to do that. The President of the United States isn't supposed to take sides. He (or hopefully in 2013, She) needs to be neutral. It doesn't matter whether you are Democrat or Republican - you have to obey the will of The People and not try to shove political views down their throats.
Oh, and Mr. President: by trying to telling us young voters to vote Democrat, you're telling us to vote for turning the United States of America into a Socialist State! As I sometimes like to tell who tell me what to do - Butt Out!

Sidenote: Sorry I haven't blogged in a while. My time on my blog is limited as I am busy with college. College is a big commitment and if you really want something, then you have to work hard for it.
