Answer to my Facebook Friends Regard Voting

OK, that's the second person who has posted that foolishness on my wall, so it's time for a more generic response.

Will I join you in committing to vote. No, I won't. Will you join me in poking yourself in the eye with a stick? No, of course you won't. Why? Because it's stupid, self-defeating, accomplishes nothing worthwhile, and doesn't make you feel good. It has all the dissipation of a night of drunkenness with none of the mis-perception that ugly women are beautiful.

Remember the bailout? I was one of about 4000 people who called one my state Senators to urge her to vote against it, whereas something like four to eight people asked her to vote for it.

Guess which way she voted.

Guess which way whatever fruit-loop running against her would vote.

Living in a plutocracy is not so bad because the food here is good. All you have to do is make it past the horrible mass hysteria of thinking it's a representative government that sweeps through the population every two years like a drug epidemic.

Fortunately by Wednesday many of you will have recovered. Meantime enjoy yourselves. Don't forget to get one of those nice stickers that says "I wasted part of a perfectly good Tuesday".
