Non-thinking, Non-voters

Half of our eligible voters don’t vote because they can’t be bothered to think. Thinking is too much like work and better left to those who have nothing else to do. Non-thinkers and non-voters are busy people with tons of other stuff to do.

Conservatives do vote but don’t think because they already know the answers to everything; the Bible and Pat Robertson tells them so. They are on a mission for God, and for their own self-interest. They are acutely concerned with who’s fornicating who, who’s collecting food stamps and welfare, and horrified by the abortions which result when nasty sex maniacs are allowed to screw themselves silly. They see themselves as the Conscience, Judge, Jury and Executioners for the nation, and by God they mean to stamp out wickedness with executions and abstinence. Of course they also oppose taxes, civil rights, health and safety laws, minimum wage, social security, public schools, pollution laws, Medicare, Medicaid, peace, and “darkies” voting. All that liberal stuff.

Conservatives know greed is good and war is good, but see smoking pot and fornicating as evil. They have finely tuned cultural values which allows them to discern which of the Ten Commandments to follow, or ignore.

Non-thinking, Non-voters are blissfully unaware of all of the all of the above, and just wanna have fun. Maybe we ought to be thankful they are Non-thinking, Non-voters. Who knows what Big Brother they might vote for to do their thinking for them?

Wish I'd seen that speech

I wish I'd been there to witness the one of two Democrats running who would seem to be on the side of the people, not big business. I have already contributed twice to his campaign, and will so again, along with Ron Paul. I'd like to think Gravel had a snowball's chance, but I think he is running just to stir the debate. Dennis need to do more with online tools...Look how much Ron paul has done on Youtube and myspace, and how he crushes everyone in the after debate online polls...yes even on Faux News! Kucinich needs to ratchet up the online power of his campaign to have a chance of defeating Queen Hillary.
