Tomorrow's the Time For Real Change so Get Out and Vote
« on: November 01, 2010, 07:36:45 AM »
It's getting down to the wire.  Make sure you vote tomorrow.  Make sure your neighbors vote.   Let's get some real change we can believe in for a change. 
“I’ve lived the literal meaning of the ‘land of the free’ and ‘home of the brave.’ It’s not corny for me. I feel it in my heart. I feel it in my chest. Even at a ball game, when someone talks during the anthem or doesn’t take off his hat, it pisses me off. I’m not one to be quiet about it, either.”  Chris Kyle

I say

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

Voted last week.
A friend's mom who was working at the polling center said they were averaging 300 to 500 per day (heavy for our area).
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

I was sent an absentee ballot, even though I never requested one. I am going to my regular polling place tomorrow. I have a hard time trusting whether my "envelope" could end up in a dumpster, etc,... Researched Judges, City Comm's, Florida Amendments, and wrote them down on a sheet of paper.

Let's VOTE Folks, it's time to keep this country a REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC!!!!

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Good advice TW. Its a long ballot here in Fl.. Lots of propositions (which I hate because the legislature should do its damned job and take the consequences), and things like judges and local offices. A cheat sheet is key so you don't forget stuff. I would highly advise it if you live in a state with a long ballot. It also moves the line along a lot quicker. Your neighbors will thank you. ;D

I took my wife and voted Saturday.

We weree getting 300 to 500 a day early voters as well in Charlotte County, Florida.

Unlike FQ, I like voting on the props.  They affect me so I should have my say in them.   :)

My beef with them is that they often involve technical issues. The voters don't have enough info to make an informed choice. Legislators have committee staff and hearings to figure out the nuts and bolts. We just get yard signs and 30 second adds. I elect a delegate that I trust to research the issue and make a well informed choice. I, for instance, can't give you a cost benefit analysis of requiring a referendum to approve variances to a community development plan. All I know is what the developers and environmentalists tell me. I don't trust either one. I'd as soon let the the legislature do its job on stuff like this and then hold them accountable for the tangible results. Just my .02.

That is by design, and part of the problem. Keep the electorate focusing on American Idol, getting high, living their lives, while thes  "nuts and bolts" of real money and political policy sneak through.

This has to stop. I guess that's why voting, originally, was designed for male property owners. Than changed.

The lazy sheeple that play no part in political elections, are as useless as tits on a boar, and deserve the old addage:

Don't Vote? Don't Bitch!
