Who didn't vote?

ME!!!

Why?

Both sides suck and the lesser of two evils is still evil.

“But Jon! But Jon! If you didn’t vote you can’t complain!”

My ass. 7 years of military service, 18 years of being taxed and our quickly folding freedom of speech gives me the right to complain.

GIVE ME SOMEONE TO VOTE FOR!!!

You could have voted for the independant or at least wrote in someone. It is pretty sad to think that about 60% of Americans didn’t even bother to vote.

It’s your choice not to vote, but this struck me as funny:

“our quickly folding freedom of speech gives me the right to complain”

Little Giants?

True Lies?

Jumbo Shrimp?

If our freedom of speech is quicly folding then I think you are losing your right to complain :wink:

**GIVE ME SOMEONE TO VOTE FOR!!! **

Who would you vote for?

Lame Jon. As someone said, you could have written in someone. And didn’t you have various propositions and all that to vote for?

Write in was NOT an option where I voted.

love it - those that complain the loudest are too lazy to get off their ass and do anything about it.

Exactly.

I also never got that “lesser of two evils” argument… if that’s the way you felt, vote for the lesser. Not voting all boils down to laziness, excuses and apathy.

So I wrote in someone. What just happened? What did I do accomplish? How exactly was something positive done?

What do i do? For real. Give me an answer. What do I do?

I don’t get your post. What where those things you where listing?

So vote for some I disagree with so I can say I voted. Then why do I need to vote if I do not agree with the Republican? I should vote in someone I disagreee with because of this phantom belief that voting matters?

look at 2008 now, pick issues that are important to you, identify candidates or special interest groups that are aligned with the issues that are important to you, seek those candidates/sigs out and get involved.

as you know, voting is the end of the whole process, don’t sit around doing nothing until early Nov 08 and then complain, again.

oxymorons

he’s saying your statement of loss of freedoms giving you a right to complain is an oxymoron

i agree
.

thanks, you beat me to it :slight_smile:

“phantom belief that voting matters”

Well there are plenty of places abroad you can locate to if you feel that way.

You disagreed with every stance of every candidate in your voting area?

When people don’t want to research the candidates, the easy way out is to proclaim that everyone sucks, its hopeless, and there’s no point in voting, ect. I believe its a copout.

Different year, same story.

So your going to throw that neo-con bullshit at me. Excuse I have served in the military in those locations and I have seen what those systems do but you still have not answered my question.

If I do not believe that my choice of candidates will make any real changes then why should I vote?
