Venison

We finally had a couple inches of rain on the 8th. Prior to that only about a quarter inch had fallen in nearly two months. The yard was pretty brown, but the grass over the leach lines for the septic was green and growing because of more moisture in the ground. The family of deer (mom, pop, 3 offspring) that have been around the area all summer, have been in the back yard keeping it mowed for me. I snapped this picture out the back door on the morning of the 7th.

I think there's an election coming up in about three weeks. Was anyone aware of that? Senator McCain was certainly not my first choice among Republican candidates, and the Democratic nominee was by far my last choice of their candidates. It just utterly baffles me that O is not only running, but that he looks so good in the polls. It tells me far too many Americans operate strictly from an emotional base rather than injecting any reason or logic into their choices. Does anyone doubt that a Republican candidate with the garbage in their past that O has, would not only have been exposed in bold headlines, lead stories on every TV news show, and editorials across this country and around the world, but would have been forced to drop out of the race long before now. It gives me the impression the main stream media would be 100% behind the Democratic candidate if they ran an inflated sex doll.

It will be interesting to see if anything comes of this.http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/10/this_could_be_the_game_changer.html
