"a little too irconic, yeah I really do think...."

I am an extremely passionate & opinionated... to say the least, the very least. Now, in recognizing this strength/flaw (however one chooses to look at it), I try my best to never be ignorant on something if I'm going to have an opinion. In my little brain, the right to be opinionated isn't a right. It's a privilege that comes with knowledge. (Ignorance is one of my biggest pet peeves, judgemental-ness is a close second...)

FOR INSTANCE: If I don't know someone, I can't like/dislike them. I need to be a neutral party until I have enough experience to form thoughts (what others say isn't enough for me). OR public education/state schools... I went to a private college because that was best for me. I have no basis to form opinions on whether or not it is good or bad.

That being said, I consider myself relatively informed on certain social issues, politics, and some politicians. I don't think so highly of myself or have any disillusions that I'm an expert, but I feel I have enough information in my grasp on which to make an informed opinion.

With ALL of that background information, I find it EXTREMELY ironic/oximoronic that Hillary Clinton of ALL people would be the keynote speaker at the National Prayer Breakfast. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying I have the authority to judge where she stands in terms of a faith or religious views. I most certainly do not and will not. I form my opinion on the basis of the statements she makes and the stand she's chosen to take on issues like abortion, gay marriage, etc. On top of all of that, to have Tim Tebow (especially en lieu of the current outrage of the left-wing American media over the Tebow's Superbowl ad) as the closing speaker is more than I can wrap my mind around.

There was a 22-yr. old, recent college graduate at a table with the people who essentially rule the world. If that wasn't divine intervention, I don't know what is. I don't believe in coincidence, but I do believe in irony. And THIS qualifies as a line to put into Alanis' song, "Ironic".
