VIRAGO

Several months ago, my Google home page had the word VIRAGO in the Dictionary.com Word of the Day section. Merriam-Webster’s definition is a woman of great stature, strength, and courage – I really like that. And so, I realized that I, a virago myself, have also been inspired by many viragos, and I wanted to give homage to them here.

Francine Busby

Elections 2006 for US Congress are just around the corner! As media has been pounding into us for the last several weeks, this is an important election.

I am not very thrilled with either party right now, and am personally very conservative on many issues, such as government spending, government imposing their "value system" on individuals, and government and religion (being an atheist, I am against any religious influence on the government). However, I do think that the issue of preserving our environment is something our government should be more proactive about!

For me personally, the candidate that is running in my district fits the profile of my blog. Francine Busby is Democratic candidate that really needs to win in our district! Francine supports protecting our environment, an issue that is extremely understated in all the campaigns.

Personally, I feel that unless we focus on the environment and extend more effort into fixing our environment, all the rest of the issues won't really matter in the long term!
