Vote!
« on: November 1, 2004, 08:05 PM »
I know we don't allow Political Threads here but I want to encourage everyone to participate in one of the most wonderful parts of being a United States citizen.  The power to choose who runs this crazy madhouse and make our laws and decisions that effect our lives.

Please leave the talk of sides and issues out of here I just want to encourage everyone to do their civic duty tomorrow and be proud that in the end you had your say in the matter.

Voting is important, no doubt about it.  Much as your system (and choices, as Jesse indicates) may not be the best, it could always be worse and be completely dominated by a particular region of the country that is stupid and easily swayed ::)  I'm pleased to not have to make the choice facing the American public, but it is a choice that must be made, so at least pick your side and live with the result.  

eek, grammatical error in there.

And don't forget your local candidates!  They tend to get overlooked in these election years, but don't forget your local Senators/Congressmen, Judges, etc. 
They all need your votes.
You are starting to damage my calm.

I voted last week - naturally I encourage everyone to get out tomorrow and do their part no matter who you're voting for.

But if we vote, we'll get banned from Rebelscum!  :-X
But seriously, I'm very concerned about the problems the elderly in Florida and elsewhere are having with their ballots. In 2000, Hugh Hefner got confused and voted for Bush.

It is done.  A pretty sad day when you try and decide the lesser of the two evils.  Didnt make my mind up til I received my ballot.

I just can't wait for today to be over with. I'm so sick of seeing political ads on tv and in papers, and getting stupid phone calls with recordings from Hillary Clinton, General whoever and some others from all parties telling me to vote for them. I went out for about 3 hours on Saturday, and when I got home there were 5 voice mails - 5 - from different "celebrities" telling me who to vote for. My phone was ringing off the hook last nite with call after call for about 4 solid hours. Enough already.
