As I said to ppl can fly last week, in my history of voting for 40 years or so, I've voted FOR maybe a dozen people, AGAINST maybe a hundred; I remember the disappointment I felt when I realized that that was how democracy was going to be, but I got over it. Am I disappointed in the last year and a half? Sure. But I've got lots jerks to vote against this November, because I live in a red state, and I hate Fascists. So I'm rarin' to go!!
My first Diary; I registered last week after lurking for over a year just to give ppl can fly a little boost. Now I've got something to say.
In 2000, I voted my first straight Democratic ticket as an Independant. Why? The Republicans used a constitutional tool (impeachment)for political points, and no other reason. Kinda like wiping your ass with the "law of the land": then they said McCain had "an illegitimate black baby" about his adopted daughter. Who could vote for assholes like that? 2004, Swiftboaters made me vote straight Democrat again. By now, I figured the entire Republican party were douchebags, and I wouldn't vote for another one for several election cycles.
By 2008, they were getting more and more shrill, and just plain crazy. This shows a lack of judgement needed for governing. Ms Palin was the icing on the cake.
Teabaggers (Douchebaggers), Gingrich, DeMint, et al, and their voting record for the last 18 months while America slips down to second world status; people die every 12 minutes due to lack of health care; stonewalling against small business assistance, foreclosure relief, global warming, tax relief for the middle class, wait for it: infrastructure spending, etc., etc, means I will never vote Republican, conservative, or whatever they call themselves for the rest of my life. Democrat, Progressive, Green, Socialist (GO BERNIE!!), whatever, gets my vote. Anybody that will defeat these vermin, and the pirates that own them.
Go to Youtube and catch Gringrich's plan for when they take over the House and Senate, for a look at the future, if they're successful. That might get you off your ass to go vote this November. These people are political terrorists and must be stopped.
Honestly, the reason we haven't gotten far is these bastards have blocked everything. The collapse is 75% their fault, going back to the "Contract on America". The lack of recovery is 95% their fault, due to obstructionism. The Dems only fault was to try and work "in good faith" with these folks, and they've blocked everything just for political gain. And America is going to reward them for their leadership???
F$%K that...I don't want the Dems to loose a single seat. We can deal with Blue Dogs, Nelson, Lieberf&*k, and the other corrupt Dems later. For now, let's drive the pubtards into the sea....
I'm writing this on Sept. 11. It feels like we're all on Flight 93, and DeMint, Palin, Beck, Boner (misspelling deliberate), Limbaugh, etc., are up in the cockpit, or threatening us with box cutters. Remember, the hijackers were a minority on that flight. If we do nothing, they win. If we charge the cockpit, there is a 1,000 to 1 chance we win.
Let's Roll.
To paraphrase Col. Kilgore in "Apocalypse Now": "Vote 'em into the Stone Age, son"
VOTE NOV 2nd., DAMMIT, AMERICA NEEDS YOU!!!!!!
PS: I don't know much about how to post this, so it's kinda plain, like me. If you think it's worth it, it'd be neat if someone with more brains than me could translate this and pass it on. Only thing I know how to do is order beer in Spanish.....
