Sisterly Wisdom

So we have the upcoming elections between John MacCain and Barack Obama. My sister and I discuss the issues on our Sunday mornings. we've had some great discussions, and I was surprised to discover that my sister is one of those "undecided voters" that each party is trying to sway. I told her that she is just a spoiled child, and wants all the attention from both parties. we laugh.


I always thought that my sister was a devout republican, and I'm a registered democrat. We've pretty much avoided political discussions knowing that each other had different views. Jane has a son in the military, she lives in Utah (traditionally conservative state), and she works for the Utah Tax Commission. So, I just naturally assumed she was republican good or bad that is what I thought. Anyway we're talking politics and our concerns with the economy, gas prices, etc. and what each candidate has to say. Finally after a little while my sister states: "Oh hell. I don't believe in either party. I believe in the party of cake!"


That is one party we can all believe in. Cake may lead to obesity, and unhealthy conditions but it is awfully satisfying, and ultimately makes me feel better. Thank god for the party of cake
