Am I a Bad American?Follow

Nope, you fall well in the vast majority of everyday Americans who also don't vote.

Following the path of least resistance is what we do.

Consider yourself Patriotic.

Eb

Apathy

No your not a bad American for not voting; however, I cant see how you can complain about the outcome of said elections if you didnt participate in them. Voting is your right, not your obligation.

Ah, so you're saying you voted for Bush.

Turns out to be an idiot? I thought we already knew he was an idiot before he was elected.

Twiztid

Damn you caught me. No, admit that I voted for "Dubya" simply because I felt he was the "lesser of two evils."

Yes, I see your point. But waht if I am ******** about the Whole ShaBang?

Really... Why shouldn't I be able to ***** about all of the candidates I see not impressing me. I'm not gonna waste my time voting whe I could be wasting my time ********* ^^

The next step can only be an armed revolt..
either taht or sit back and smoke some ganj..

I think Moe and I hold pretty opposing political views on many issues, but I'm in complete agreement with him here.

But you see, that is where you are wrong. The act of participation is what makes a difference. Apathy is a festering disease. It will not flash and burn a thousand acres over night, but left unchecked begins to seep beyond the boundries of "the young" and "the disenfranchised". Granted, your voting does give your ******** a bit more legitimacy than that of those who can't be bothered, but at least you are excercising the muscles of Liberty. At that take heart. It does make a difference.

EDIT: Using a new laptop. Freakin keys are too small.

Anyone who could not have guessed this would make you look astute by comparison. Thanks for the help though. We will take what we can get (even though you are our target demographic. intollerant urban people tend to vote liberal).

EDIT: F'ucking laptop keyboards.

Ya know, stupidity is pretty much defined as an inability to learn from one's own mistakes.

I like to take a couple easy lobs on Monday.. maybe work into some more subtle stuff by Wednesday and finish off the week with a pun.

Im going to again too!

Guess what? Your vote is irrelevant. Vote, don't vote, whatever. Bush is going to win his home state regardless.

If you don't live in Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Iowa, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Washington, West Virginia or Wisconsin....

Your vote is utterly meaningless. All of the other states are massively polarized to the point where it's more likely that each and every person will be struck by lightning than Bush will carry Massachussets or Kerry will carry Texas.

So horray for you in casting a vote that will mean absolutely nothing in the Presidential election. Nothing at all. Every vote in Texas that occurs after Bush has enough votes to win the delegates means squat.

You may have mistaken our system for a Democracy in a breif moment of sucking down "rock the vote!!" propaganda or something, but it's not. If it were, we'd be talking about the Gore economic miracle and how we had ended terrorism world wide right now.

I'm going to get you one of these
