YD: Thanks for clearing this up. Just wanted to put some info out to chew on.

I think that posting of the original article was good Glen. Some of the comments following it were heading down the wrong path though IMO. I just thought a reminder was in order before it got silly.

AWWWWWE. I was hoping for a good... never mind. Good call Don. No matter what,vote with your heads and hope it helps out our country. No matter the outcome.

You got the important thing in there Tom VOTE Just casting a ballot sends a message.

[On a call]

The main problem we have IMO is that no one wants to face the truth. And most do not want to tell us the truth and if they do they side step the hard issues.

The have nots wanting what the haves have without the price the haves paid.

I should stop here. Have a great evening guys.

Geez, I don't even want to start listing what I think our problems are. But those of you who know me are probably groaning about now knowing full well that I'm probably going to anyway.


1.) APATHY....we just don't care enough to speak up and back up our words with our votes.
Do you know that all you have to do is register ON LINE, and check the box to have all ballots SENT TO YOU AT HOME...(so you can sit in front of your computer or TV or whatever and cast your ballot) Really it's that simple...No lines...No voting machines....No trying to remember to vote(I get a ballot 3 weeks before it has to be mailed back)...No driving to the voting precinct(if you remember where it is) and finding a parking place.... I can go on and on ....Get off your Butt and register and vote....

Well Said YD, doesn't matter where you live, coffee, tea or your local watering hole's all discuss the pro's and con's of running a country, But ask many of the patrons if they voted-- NO for the above stated reasons. They can't make it much easier for a person nowadays-- don't even have to leave the house.

"Apathy is the Greatest enemy to any Society" Thomas Jefferson. This is Something we All Must Guard against! By Voting you have only started to do Our Share, Write your Senators and Congressmen and By Golly Let them have Your Opinion! They are Not Mind Readers and Must have input from us if they are to Govern as we would like. IMO.

I don't trust anyone at this point.

It Is Really hard to Know Who to Vote for nowdays because they All Talk out of Both sides of their Mouth and Noone REALLY Knows what they Really Stand for or Against!

If You Vote for the Lesser of Two Evils, You're Still Voting for Evil! Sadly to Say I feel This Has Been Our Problem for Quite a few Years! Noone On Capital Hill has the Wherewithall to SAY IT LIKE IT IS!!! And let the Chips Fall where they will for Fear of Hurting Someone's Feelings! If it is what is Best for the Country, The Heck with The Feelings of Some Idiot, Who More than Likely is gonna get their little Feelings Hurt at SOMETHING anyway!

DO WHAT IS RIGHT!
