And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

1331 Days Until the 2016 Presidential Election

I know all of you are expecting Hillary Clinton to run in 2016, so don't get too excited over this.  Well, my liberal friends at least.

Yes, Hillary will run.  Why wouldn't she?  She's been the most popular and most admired woman in America for over 20 years, and according to Gallup the most popular woman in the world.  So when anyone ever asks me, "Peter, do you think she's running?"  I most emphatically say yes.
Take for instance, the fact she's created a new website called HillaryClintonOffice.com.  Sure it's nothing more than just a picture of herself and a large button that says "Contact", but it sure leaves one to question the "office" in the web address. Things that make you go hmmm... LOL.

Then there's the fact that she has transferred the balance of her campaign funds to the Friends of Hillary organization.

Or if you just want to go to HillaryClinton.com, you can click on the link "Click here to reach the Office of Hillary Clinton." and you will go straight to her Hillary Clinton Office once again.

Let's just say she doesn't really have to do a thing, as super PACs have started forming in anticipation of her 2016 run.

I, for one, am excited.  And provided she's in good health, will be ready to make history as our nation's first woman President.

Hillary Clinton: The Most Powerful Woman in American Politics

"...she has been one of the most remarkable Americans of our time. In the 20 years she’s been on the stage, the country has gone from wondering whether women could handle the toughest jobs to knowing they can. That is a huge cultural change—barriers that were a given for most people a generation ago are just completely socially unacceptable now, and thousands more women know they can aim for the top. No one is more responsible for that change than Hillary Clinton."
