Those that have regularly been in my presence, know that I've been reading/thinking/talking about the upcoming presidential election a lot. I've went out of my way NOT to talk about it, because I think there are plenty of better places to read about the election than anything I can spout about.
That being said, there is one thing I wanted to bring up. During the 2000 presidential election, a few of my friends pointed me at Project Vote Smart. They are a truly non-partisan non-profit that specifically does not accept financial contributions from lobbyists, governmental organizations, corporations, businesses or special interests. The great thing about this site is that you have access to all of the candidates voting records, political history (what offices were held), etc. So when Bush says he's for defense, or Kerry says he's for putting more money back in the pockets of taxpayers, go look it up and see what they've actually done.
OK, back to your regularly scheduled light-hearted fun...
