If you say independent I'm going to snicker.

That's where you're confused. You think you can only vote for a "party." The "straight ticket" voting thing is not a requirement. Avoiding it isn't even frowned upon by some. Politics isn't a "sport" to me and I don't cheerlead teams.

Arlo, you're anything BUT a libertarian. You may see yourself as a libertarian, but you're more of a full-blown liberal, borderline communist.

In the US, that's a guy that gives you a hug, then taxes your butt 80%.

Boogy-man! Boo! Yeah, whatever. I'll never know myself better than you imagine me to be.

Again, it's not a sport to me. It's not a gambling event. I vote for people to do a job. Not agendas to do a job on me. If more people tried that, then the rut can indeed be broken out of. Think about that for me. If ya want.
