We're not actually sure if Barack Obama or his running mate, Joe Biden, really do love cats. We'll have to be honest and say that we only assume that a person as intelligent as Senator Obama would naturally love cats. He has been quoted as saying that he will get his daughters a dog when they move into the White House but we know that many, many Americas like both cats and dogs. So we don't take it personally that he's keen on getting a dog. And on the subject of dogs, we want you to know that our blog is not going to be one sided but in fact we have a couple dog friends and we will welcome the input of canines who support Obama.
We decided to start this blog to get the word out about the grassroots feline support for the Obama ticket and to educate and entertain both cat and dog lovers in America about the reasons we support Obama - and maybe just get a few more Obama supporters to register to vote along the way.
As you are surely aware, felines do not have the right to vote. All the same, we have many of the same concerns and interests as our human companions. For example, the supply of new toys and catnip dries up when our humans are laid off because their company no longer hires Americans but instead moves all its jobs to "low cost" countries. It's true that we don't have a formal education and we aren't quite sure what "the economy" is. But, we have come to the conclusion that when its not doing well a lot of our human companions can't keep the $1000 dollars or more they need in their savings account to pay for the inevitable emergency vet bill. We know we're not going to be able to hold back indefinitely and one day soon we'll eat that tempting plastic bag. Then we'll face the unfortunate situation where our life hangs in the balance and our humans have to decide if they can afford to go more into debt to save us. We believe in an American Dream where humans don't have to make that terrible choice!
Our human companions are certainly filled with a new and remarkable optimism that politics in our Nation's Capital might be something an American cat could believe in again if only Barack Obama is elected... And let us assure you that whatever happens we are confident that its always best to be an American cat! But we could no longer sit by wondering what we could do to help bring the right kind of change to America, we knew we had to act!
We hope you'll subscribe to our blog so that over the next few months we can share with you pictures of us dressed in our Obama/Biden "swag" as well as facts and information about Obama that are accurate and accessible.
Vote!
