I despise politics -- political or office or otherwise. First I don't really understand much of it and second I just don't see why people have to act like high school all the time.
It's only been recently that I paid much attention to the presidential election. I remember voting in my first presidential election; I was a senior in college and voting by absentee ballot. I felt it was my civic duty to vote, but I couldn't figure out what the real issues were because there was so much mud slinging. The guy I voted for won, but I remember thinking "He hasn't done such a bad job the last four years, so he's probably the lesser of the two evils." Yes, that's seriously what I based my vote on.

I hope this blog post finds you. I fear it may be intercepted. We are OK. Just scared. They are monitoring all diabetes-related blog activity and tracing all transmissions, so I must be brief.
The last 48 hours have been harrowing to say the least. Charlie and I have been on the run since receiving word that the "death panels" are rounding up all diabetics. I hope you are all OK. Safe houses have been set up. Obviously I cannot post locations or our safety will be compromised.
I am writing from a small Internet café in Morocco, disguised as a street musician. I have Charlie parked outside in a donkey costume, attached by a leash to a bike rack. They were hot on our trail yesterday in the Andean slopes as teams of Siberian sled-dogs closed in on us in an initiative rumored to run by domestic terrorist Bill Ayers.

The two current party front-runners in this race were decided tonight, giving Democrat Barack Obama and Republican Mike Huckabee a head start. Without doubt- health care reform is a hot topic for presidential candidates. This is the look on what Barack Obama and, type-2 diabetic, Mike Huckabee promise in their health care platforms.

What I really need is a good online diabetes-related battle. Nothing lights up the 'ole blog switchboard like a feud. I came across a rather heated one in the blogosphere recently. So lucky. All I ever get is nothing but stinkin' compassion and support. Anyone got a beef with me? Anyone? Come on, don't make me beg.
Type 2s? Come on, type 2s. When was the last time I addressed your concerns? How about like never. All I do is talk about my type 1 son. Booooring!
Type 1s? Come on, hit me!
I thought I had a real shot with the Sotomayor piece, but unfortunately most of those who commented, directed their anger not at me but instead at the fictional characters I created. Sigh.
