Democrats Don’t Vote and New Mexicans are the Worst
Do you know the difference between Democrats and Republicans. Republicans *always* vote. When they’re up, they vote out of pride and when they’re down, they vote out of anger. They’re plenty pissed off this year. Democrats don’t vote. Democrats assume their vote doesn’t matter, either because other Democrats will vote enough or Republicans will vote too much – why bother.
Get out and vote. Ask everyone you know if they have registered and if they plan to vote. Take a friend or neighbor to the early voting site or the polls the day of. It’s not too late, but it could be soon. Negative forces are counting on your failure.
New Mexico Politics: New Mexico FBIHOP:: Tuesday is the last day to register to vote

If you, or someone you know, isn’t registered to vote yet, you don’t have much more time to procrastinate; to be eligible to vote in November’s elections, one must be registered to vote by next Tuesday.
The Secretary of State’s office says if you still need to register to vote you can call your county clerk’s office for more information. If you are not sure about your status, you can check VoterView to search for your voter registration information.
Remember, if you aren’t registered to vote by Tuesday [10/5/10] you will not be able to vote in November’s elections. This includes all races from your local state Representative races all the way up to the Congressional and federal races.
Other important dates for the upcoming election include October 16, when early in-person voting begins in alternate sites and October 30, when early and absentee voting ends. And, of course, election day is November 2.

TenMillionVoters.Com: Newt Launches Tea Party Campaign To Stop ‘Radical, Secular Socialist Machine’
With the incendiary claim that the Obama presidency is the greatest threat the American people have ever faced, Newt Gingrich has launched a massively funded effort to mobilize ten million conservative voters this November. In an online video promoting the “Power of 10” campaign by his American Solutions for Winning the Future (ASWF) 527 group, Gingrich rails against the “genuinely radical, secular socialist machine” of the “Obama-Pelosi-Reid team” who “simply run over the beliefs and values of the American people.” Images of Tea Party rallies and the right-wing enemies list — Michael Moore, Sean Penn, and Katie Couric — scroll by as Gingrich pleads for “we the American people” to “go all out”:
You know, I don’t remember any time in American history where we had such a threat to our basic way of life: A genuinely radical, secular socialist machine ramming things through with no regard for American values or the beliefs of the American people.

Obama explains ‘Why I’m a Christian’ during visit to Albuquerque « New Mexico Independent
South Valley resident Lisa Murphy had told the president she had three ‘hot-topic’ questions for him, including “Why are you a Christian?” …
“I’m a Christian by choice,” the president answered. “My family didn’t — frankly, they weren’t folks who went to church every week. And my mother was one of the most spiritual people I knew, but she didn’t raise me in the church. So I came to my Christian faith later in life.
Obama explains ‘Why I’m a Christian’ during visit to Albuquerque « New Mexico Independent
On one local news show, the reporter said, “Obama was asked why he chose Christianity.” That is not correct reporting and it subtly alters the impact of the question and answer.
This was the question asked of Mother Theresa, who answered it was the best way to serve god. That must be why god made me an atheist.

I’ve updated my photos home page, which serves as a gateway to all of my photos on the Web. See www.photosbymjh.com. The static photos on the left and right are drawn randomly from my flickr account – those photos change each time this page loads. The slideshow in the center comes from my picasa account. There are links at the bottom of the page to each of those accounts, as well as, my photo blog.
I wish I could put all of my photos in one place, eliminating links to multiple locations, but no one method of organizing and presenting photos works best for me. Flickr provides a great way to show my latest photos to lots of people, friends and strangers. However, flickr’s sets and collections are not as useful to me as Picasa’s albums. Each service has different benefits, so I use them both. Although descriptions of photos are available on both flickr and Picasa, I like saying more now and then, and so that led me to creating the photo blog. I regret giving you three paths to follow, but I hope you will wander down each a few steps.
At one time, I thought Facebook might replace Picasa for me. Facebook has albums and makes it easy for my friends to see my photos. Facebook’s interface and its gnarly URLs turned me off (http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=-3&id=1108374610&l=dac5e1b82d).
