Antics in the House!
« Reply #15 on: July 18, 2003, 11:33:44 PM »
I understand the problem of not voting - I just dont really believe enough in any of these people to waste time and effort to get attatched to them.

I'd love it if there was some canditate I wanted to vote for but these days only the most crazy determined egotistical SOB ever get a chance to run and even if they are "decent" people their opponents dig up trash on them. He or she does the same and both practically start calling each other child molestors in one commerical - you know the one with the dark screen, flashed newspaper quotes and the ominous sounding narration -  all the while both also run those warm fuzzy family sytle ads - you know the ones, playing baseball in the backyard with the kids and of course this message is always brought to you by "Paid for by puppies, orphans and grandmothers voters group" or some other wholesome BS sounding  "voters" group..


And no I dont think campaign finance reform will fix it, both sides are rolly stuffing it with dozens of loopholers so they can get their union and business money...  Heck even the ACLU thinks it's unconstitutional..

No Thanks!

All those rantings about living in a democracy and you failed to simply grasp the basic concept of it, go figure.

All taunts aside... I wish you and everyone else in this country would vote. If we don't, what's the point of democracy?


He makes a good point.

Why should I be forced, and yes thats exactly your position,  to vote for anyone if I am really disguisted by all the candidates - perhaps you people are the ones missing the point of a democracy. You guys do know that Saddam Hussein forced people to vote in the last Iraqi election before the war.  If I dont like any of them I wont vote for them, plain and simple.
