Elections - October 2006

A friend of mine from Asia came here to work as a work permit holder. He asked me if he can, and should, register to vote in local elections here. Does it matter whether or not his name is put in the local electoral registration office?

I like that we have the choice to vote in our country, but whats the point. Nobody has any idea who these people are other than what they see in stupid TV ads and from the lies they tell in the debates. Seriously, is there anyone out there that actually knows who is going to do the better job.

When I moved across country a few years ago, I was amazed to see candidates worked the line to vote right up to the door of the polling room.

I am not interested in your twisted logic, just what are they running on besides that they are against President Bush!

With the upcoming elections, how many of you are influenced by how a celebrity is voting?

Keep in mind that Hilary's plan, if elected, is to have gun control. All you NRA members out there...what do you think of that? I don't think any MAN would allow a women to tell them what to do....Bush is a Godly man who is doing what anyone in his position would do...He can only do so much. After all it takes Congress, House of Reps. and Senate to pass anything...The Presidents Veto doesn't really matter in the end...

I am sick and tired of voting for the lesser of all evils. I think that our political parties owe it to us, the tax paying, line towing, citizens of this country to give us proper representation. I think that we should be allowed to vote no, unless there is a candidate that we actually want in office. Who's with me? Let's force them to come up with worthy candidates. We should keep holding elections for open offices every six months until someone can dig up a candidate that we can stand behind. And in the meantime, they can just continue to suffer with the one already in office. Our party chairmen need incentive to find someone new. So, there you go, if you don't have a candidate from your party in office, find one that we can vote for, or suffer with the opposing candidate who's already there forever.

Cause it's gonna happen.

Diebold, the company that makes the electronic vitong machines has a president who spoke to republicans and guaranteed them the election.

No paper trail, no ability to recount. Just change a number ina database, and the election is won.

Is this democracy?

What would Jesus think?

Without voter fraud, some say the Democrats have a shot at getting power back in both the House and the Senate. Suppose they are right? How many think this would really make a difference? ....that any of the present administration's "irons in the fire" would be derailed?

Would you say that the present polling data reflects (A) a distrust in the evidence of a cover-up surrounding 9-11? (B) the Iraq war mess which now appears out of control despite the positive inroads made to lead this country into the 21st century? (c) This administrations efforts to derail Constitutional restraints by joining this nation with the Mexican and Canadian governments to form a mass economic trade alliance in an effort to remain competitive in the world of free trade? (D) this administrations efforts to reduce the Constitution to a null and void document with out the willing consent of both the House and the Senate or a majority count of 2/3 vote on same? (E) All of the above?

The Dems. had such stress
Over that Monica mess
Then that dirty black dress
Caused Bill to confess
They begged her please
Stay off of your knees
But there's no hope now
Becouse of that cow
And Bill ,the louse, cost us Senate and House
We had no luck with Kerry
Or Dean screaming like a fairy
So Al Gore please stop smooching the trees
You shaved off your beard
But you still act weird
They can hardly wait
For Hillary to be the candidate
Trying to sound like a man
She'll do all that she can
To stand by her man
But Bill still might go far
If he doesn't smoke that cigar
Hope you like this rhyme
And get luckier next time

Seems really stupid to have to vote on machines that cannot be traced or audited and that leave no paper trail. I hear that they can be easily hacked into to change votes. I heard about a test where a voting machine was easily hacked using wireless technology. Well now you know how I feel. What do you think about this? Are you sure that your vote will count for something?

The economy is doing really well by any definition. The stock market has reached an all time high based on "revived consumer optimism" But yet Molly Ivin's column today says it ain't so.....that things are really bad.

Why is that when the stock market reached an all time high under Bill it was brillinant leadership but when the market exceeds that of Bill George gets no credit at all from the dems/libs.

Do you dems/libs understand "double standard"?
