Vote, Baby, Vote!



Madame and I have had a busy day! I will have to tell you about the super exciting news in a bit, but for now I'll let you know about our first post on Facebook today! Madame is all about suffrage and reminding people about their rights. She reminded people to vote in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York. Not only that, Madame gave a shout out to some women who shattered some glass ceilings of their own: Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. Madame is obviously a big fan of the 19th amendment! She said in her post, "[w]hen we consider the sacrifices made to give us this right, there is simply no excuse not to vote." Darn right, Madame!

Madame also focused on common sense. You see, with Madame, it's about common sense, not conventional wisdom. I have to say the last line of Madame's post lately have been brilliant. Today was no different: "Vote today in honor of our past and with hope for our future."

Now, does anyone want to lobby for the 28th Amendment so that LOTUSes can vote? I'd really appreciate it. Sadly though, no matter whether or not I get the chance to vote, I'll never get to run for President. I wasn't made here!

Yet Another Type, Type, Send

Madame's latest post on Facebook came to her while watching some basketball. Then, she began to talk about the gubernatorial races in New Jersey and Virginia. This is where she began to truly speak my language, "[t]here are big political races on the East Coast that are coming down to the wire - the results of which will impact policies and political actions that touch all of us in every state". Down to the wire-- that's something that an electronic device like me can really understand!

She also spoke about her rogueness, how she doesn't always agree with Republican political committees. She talked up the two Republicans running for Governor out East. She didn't even mention their opponents' names--a tactic she used in her endorsement of Doug Hoffman and in her RNC speech last year. Sneaky, very sneaky, Madame!

She closed by reminding us that this isn't just about doing what is right, right now. It is about doing what's right for future generation. She understands the whole Constitution-- that it is securing the blessings of liberty for ourselves and our posterity. This is good. I want America to continue to be great place for my future little LOTUSes!
