One More Election Rant

A few last election rants before the real deal on Tuesday:

  • Have you heard of The Bradley Effect. It is interesting, yet sad that it would occur based on race in this day and age.
  • I you missed this interview on the Daily Show with Bill Kristol (not Billy Crystal). It was great because there were two highly intelligent people discussing real topics, hilarious because Kristol still thinks McCain will win, and it was hilarious because Jon Stewart basically says Kristol is an idiot for still supporting McCain, yet Stewart and McCain still get along and are genuine to each other. It shows two people can disagree yet still get along.


  • I think this is still a cool commercial:


  • Starbucks is giving away a free cup of coffee on Tuesday for anyone who is voting. It's cool because they are not picking a side, just saying, "hey, go vote you lazy a-hole." Yes, Starbucks are run by Hippies and represent everything that is wrong in this world.


On Friday I was in an elevator and these two chicks were in it. One asked the other, "hey did you vote yet?" The other one said "I'm not going to to vote." "Why" asked the other one. "I'm proving a point." Wait? What? What point are you trying to make exactly? There are only a few reasons you wouldn't vote, and making a point that no one will see is not one of them.
  • You hate freedom
  • You have a criminal record
  • You are Canadian
  • You hate America
  • You are a terrorist
  • You are under 18


Stupid video, but Jonah Hill is hilarious. "I have 19 kids, I never used abortion once." "Darfur...that sounds like a t-shirt company to me." "I never did shit on drugs except play Halo II."Oh yeah, and Natalie Portman is hot.
(Update) I guess they have another video now:

That is a long and disjointed post. But you have to admit, there were a lot of people who did not vote in 2004, as it was a lame ass election. This year however, by not voting, it says that a 2 party system does not work. Mostly because both parties are outright wrong, not to mention that they are all asshole pols. Pigs in Congress/Senate/and POTUS have to have something to make them realize that the government is for the average person, not Joe the Plumber. They dont see that, and as long as this is reality, there will be no headway.

wouldn't voting 3rd party say the 2 party system doesn't work better than not voting?

A) That was not disjointed, it all had to do with the election and voting.

B) Not voting proves nothing, because nothing was said. If I don't like my boss it would be better to go to his house and sleep with his wife instead of just not going to work, which proves nothing.
