Satire on the “duty” to vote and politicians.
“It’s your duty to vote as an American citizen.” I’m told this every day, every year in school, on the news, and I say it’s BS. See there’s this little thing called the Electoral College that can change our votes in the end if they think we’re too stupid to make the right decision.
So why waste my time looking it all up, scouring the net for facts, and being a loyal, educated voter if in the end, a bunch of no it all politic geniuses are going sit around and decide I’m to stupid to make my own decision.
Besides, have you seen our candidates these past few years:
Bush: Wages war without clear expedition. Frankly, “Go get revenge.” Isn’t quite good enough for me. Sure there was the whole 9/11 scene but don’t we need a plan of action before we go send our beloveds into a blood bath? We have one now … Four years later.
Meanwhile back in the old U.S of A our economic community crumbles and the middle class begins to wither away. Oil prices rise and so therefore does everything else.
John McCain: Smart one that he is, can’t remember how many houses he owns. Can you spell waste of nature? Or pushing global warming? Anyway fat cat has 7.
He thinks middle class is anyone earning under 5 MILLION dollars a year. Shows what he knows about today’s economic world. How many of you make 4 million?
He supports Bush: Ha-ha enough said.
He plays way too many dirty angles, more than usual in campaigns. For instance he slangs this whole time about Obama’s inexperience, and what kind of a VP does he elect? One no one knows and his most inexperienced choice possible.
Also the fact that she’s a woman is very sneaky on his part. Hey I don’t have nothing against her personally. I’m a woman. Anyway I figure He’s only doing it because Obama’s getting publicity for being African American so good old McCain goes and says, we’ll look my VP, she’s a woman. How’s that for publicity. As a woman, I find t insulting because of why he is doing it.
Another thing: all those speeches of his and his followers’? Do they say ANYTHING and I mean ANYTHING about what the hell he’s going to do about America? No. Just, “I’m a war hero this, I’m a war hero that, I’m an experienced geezer who can’t count to seven, did I mention I’m a war hero?”
Obama: We’ll now he’s just plain sketchy. Something was said about him wanting to finish something in Iraq yet he apparently is getting our troops home ASAP.
He used to do drugs. Has he been like urine tested or something so we know we’re not hiring a drug addict?
He made a big fuss over a lapel. IT’S JUST A PIN! GET OVER IT! He has but, jesus, he made a scene.
Hilary: Yeah, yeah no one cares anymore but still.
She was for abortion, no restrictions, just for it. That highly disturbs me, I mean according to her if two people get in a bed and go at it for mere pleasure and woops make a baby, they have no obligation to its life what so ever. Yeah I get that if they are really against the idea the kid and they won’t get along so hot. But people there is life beyond age 18! Also, there is this wonderful elastic little creation, it makes you less likely to knock up your partner or get knocked up, it’s called a C-O-N-D-O-M-N! Buy it. Wear it. Love it.
Yeah we’ll she’s gone anyway. HALILUEJEAH
So seriously, I wouldn’t waste my time even if I was old enough. You want to go stand in a line for hours and choose between different idiots only to have your vote changed in an instance by our very own Electoral College, have it messed up in the machine, or have some dude pay his way in, you go ahead. I’ll live MY life and make sure what I can effect, is affected.
