Half A Vote?

I am changing the topic for today's post because it's my blog and I can do what I want! Hrumph!

DNC should stand for Dumb Numnuts Committee! Half a vote! HALF A VOTE! This is the epitomy of liberalism gone array.

My parents live in Florida. They didn't make the law. They didn't write the rules. They are not half a person. Pardon my French folks but...this is Bullshit!

I know that my family has been life-long registered Democrats but I swear to you this Democrat is seriously thinking of switching party affiliations.

The values that I grew up with that used to be values that were shared with this particular political party, I believe no longer exist within this party. This political party has been taken over by the most left-wing racists who use bully tactics to stop dialogue.

This week Geraldine Ferrarro said, "Since March, when I was accused of being racist for a statement I made about the influence of blacks on Obama’s historic campaign, people have been stopping me to express a common sentiment: If you’re white you can’t open your mouth without being accused of being racist."

I agree with Ms. Ferrarro. The facts are behind her reputation. (To talk about this subtopic could take an entire other post.)

My views on this may not be politically correct or popular with some readers but they are mine nonetheless and I stand by them.

The extremist way the leaders of the Democratic party bully others into silence is the EXACT reason I HATED the Republican party as a child and young adult. But it seems to me there has been a huge shift and while there are a handful of offensive positions and players in the Republican party, there is an epidemic of this in the Democratic party.

Supposedly in the guise of "being fair" my parents votes are going to count but only half as much as any other citizen in the nation. Just how the hell is THAT fair?

It's not! It's just pandering bullshit.

lol :) I am SO sick of politics and politicians. All they care about is getting into office and when they get there...they do nothing. They're so out of touch with normal citizens. Blah...I have no idea who I'm going to vote for.

Jessica, I know who I am voting for, let's put it that way. And I know who I will NEVER vote for. But yes, they all suck!
