Happy Election Day
« on: November 07, 2006, 09:34:48 pm »
I didn't have to wait in line. And my county wasn't a laughingstock like it was in the primary for not knowing how to use its own voting equipment. I guess that's the best you can hope for these days.  And, a pug.

I had to wait half an hour because one of the 5 machines was down. And for some reason they scheduled today as leaf day as well, so there were gobs of perfectly good parking spaces full of leaf bags.

Apparently (from the sticker) your county let's canine-americans have a vote too. I approve.

Did you vote for that douchebag Trachtenberg?

I happily voted against that douchebag Santorum.  I wasn't so happy about voting for his opponent, but it's a necessary thing.

Otherwise I didn't really like the remainder of my choices either.

But fuck it - I'm moving out of the state in a day.  The local mess is other peoples' problem now. ;)

What a dignified pug photo. That is a pug with gravitas.

Like Jough, I held my nose and voted for a man who proposes roving anti-terrorist death squads because he's not Rick Santorum.

Then I went home, ate too many cheese fries, and took a nap.

GOOD THINGS: that pug is adorable. Can for cute pug.

I just want to add that as a Canadian, I heard of the "frothy mix" definition of Santorum before I knew of the terrible politician who gave the frothy mix its name sake.

As of about a minute ago, fuck*ng shitbag fake-ass-southerner racist spits-on-women George Felix Allen Junior leads Jim Webb for Virignia's Senate seat by like eight thousand fuck*ng votes with 98% of precincts reporting.  Hopefully those last two percent are precincts in Arlington and Alexandria, which are heavily Dem.

I voted early this morning, and it was uneventful.  I bought two chocolate chip cookies at the 6th grader's bake sale and ate them on the way to work.

The thing that I love about living in a small town is that I don't even have to show ID when I go to vote. I got some free candy, I filled in my ballot, and was on my way in under 2 minutes.

Don't forget the Anti-Basic Human Rights ammendment that passed by a depressingly large margin.

this election has cemented block 1 of my (presumed) slow descent from idealism into cynicism: listening to liberals now offends my sensibilities roughly as much as listening to conservatives does. I never thought I would be that guy.

Listening to liberals or listening to Democrats? Most Dem candidates at the moment are not what I would consider liberal.

no, I mean the clueless liberal students around me who say completely bullshit things. and basically say that anyone who disagrees with them is an ignorant bigot who hates women and gays and black people and doesn't believe in freedom or democracy.
