#16 – Sound
>>piss on ‘em all and vote for ralph nader…
Yeah. Then we’ll end up with a loser douche bag like we’ve had for the past 8 years.
Sounds like a plan.
I am still voting Flintstone/Rubble.
ONLY the naive will think change will come from either of these two plutocrats supported by the same maga-firms they are trying to bail out.
Cursor_
Maybe, just maybe, if a few more people had of voted then we wouldn’t have the current economic mess we have today.
Maybe we could be spending money to equip schools with better books, and laptops. Or clean uniforms for the football team.
Maybe that road you travel every day could be fixed.
Or maybe we could continue to pour money into Iraq.
Just maybe, if a few more people had of voted.
This was a tax write-off for all the actors involved. Public service etc… But given that, I thought it was a decent non-partisan type commercial. The perceived partisanship comes from those that think all actors are Dems and everyone else is Rep.
#24 – As I tell my friends, “If you didn’t vote, then you have zero right to bitch about anything”.
And yet, those are the fucktards that bitch the most.
When someone says “they are both the same” or “it doesn’t make any difference” or “I like cheese” all it really means is that the speaker is either ignorant or an idiot, and in any case, is paying no attention whatsoever.
Decisions are made by those who show up. So show up. Or shut up.
MCP for president. The MCP can run the country 900 to 1200 times better than any human!
On a side note:
I love it when self-aggrandizing teleprompter sycophants pretend they are the modern version of Socrates — its all so very subtle with their flashy smiles and wispy hair. In fact I feel better now that I am going to do exactly what they told me to do… I have to obey, their craggy good looks and oratory skills compel me to obey. I can hear them now, “everything is fine, go back to sleep”.
…SLEEP…
…SLEEP…
…SLEEP…
Whoah, what happened? I must have been dreaming about being cool like the *actors*.
Remember to vote for MCP this fall, if you do there is a 68.71% chance you will be right.
#38 Wimpussy – What is MCP?
Good thing the polling center is within walking distance of my home. Since I don’t have the gas to drive anywhere anymore (not even to work some days).
Why the hell can’t we just take some old fashioned spoils of war, and confiscate oil from Iraq to pay for all the s@#tstorm thats been pummeling us lately?
Go ahead and don’t vote. That makes my vote all that more powerful.
And finally, voting for the national idiocy is just a side trek. The real power and personal control lies in picking the proper local officials. And giving them hell when they do not perform.
