Awkward

As I accidently (maybe) taught my nephew… AWKWARD!

Today I was ready a feminist blog. And I thought it was weird, because she felt the need to keep identifying herself as a feminist. I thought it was weird, mostly because:

A) I hate titles, and
B) She wasn’t talking about anything really political. 

As someone who has worked on a campaign, I will GLADLY tell you my political beliefs.  And you might notice I don’t have ANY party loyalty. Fight for something I believe in? I’ll fight for you. Say something I don’t believe in? If I like your opponent, I’m taking you DOWN!!

So here’s my list of things that I believe are important:

1. A strong education system
2. Lack of standardize testing
3. Affordable living
4. The government NOT touching my body
5. Safe drinking water
6. Safe/well-maintained roads
7. Keeping children safe
8. Keeping crazies away from guns
9. Equal pay for equal work
10. Equal percentage of taxes being paid 
11. No sales tax
12. No income tax (though I understand that at some point they will be necessary)
13. The idea of no-fault divorce*
14. The idea of a domestic partnership*
15. Never blaming the victim (also never teaching someone to be a victim)
16. Corporations are not people.

*I do not believe in marriage. Gay, Straight, Polygamous, whatever. The government has no business knowing who I’m with. Since the all-knowing THEY apparently disagree with me, I also don’t believe they should know/care why I’m no longer with my partner. 

I’m forgetting some stuff, but put me in a box as you like. This post is my disclaimer for any future political posts.
