"They" say that our country has not been this divided or polarized since the Civil War. I am not sure that is true, but it does seem that people judge each other by who they voted for in the last election. Personally I find it very difficult to understand why anyone in my ward would make a judgement call on anyone, let alone based on their middle of the road political philosophy.
One of the unique aspects of this year's presidential race is that the Professor served in France on a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at the same time that Mitt Romney (the Republican candidate).
On the Daily Show Thursday, Jon Stewart talked/joked about Mitt Romney. Among the pictures that he used in talking about Romney's mission was this one. If you know the professor, you can immediately pick him out in the back row in this photograph. The only blond wearing glasses. Since most of us in the family are Daily Show fans, we were excited when we learned that "Dad" was on the Daily Show. Please note that none of us gets our news information from the program, but we do get quite a few laughs.
