A House Divided...

Well, you just can't get away from politics.

Last week, Zac, my mom and Seth, were sitting in the living room. I can't remember what brought the subject up, but the discussion turned political.

Now, most of you know the way the political winds blow in our house, but fear not--punditry is beyond the scope of THIS blog. Rather, I report on Boy Happenings at our house, and what follows is classic.

Perhaps it was one of the kid's presidential biographies we had gotten from the library which started the convo. At any rate, the kids started talking about the presidential race.


"Well, I'm for Barack Obama," declared Seth. Amused, we asked Seth why.

"I think John McCain brags too much in his commuhshul." We gently explained that is what political commercials do.

Zac stated with his usual calm matter-of-factness that he was for John McCain. "Barack Obama will raise your taxes," said Zac.

"No he won't!" Seth replied emphatically.

My two sons--the cold, calculating Republican or the bleeding-heart liberal...choose your stereotype.

The set of McGregors in Arlington have taken their poll, and are 100% for McCain/Palin 2008! What funny and cute story!
