Taking A Stand

So Jooj and I went to the early voting place at the local strip mall, and I voted for a candidate, and not much else. And I thought about how I was, essentially, choosing the least douchey of three douchebags.

And then I thought about how, in the olden days, people (not necessarily me) had opinions that mattered to them. They protested and sat-in, and all sorts of things like that. My biggest issue, these days, is getting ticked off when it is so windy that the satellite gets knocked out right in the middle of Passions. (Theresa just got eaten by a shark! And the demon midget elf is back to cause mischief!)
And then I thought, I should let my voice be heard. I should speak out for things that I believe in, and should be not afraid to make my opinions known.

1. Con: If you have bunions do not get a tatoo on your toe. It makes us all have to look at your bunions.

2. Pro: I won some Dropps cleaning products and love them. They are the greatest thing ever made for my washing machine.

3. Con: You should not lock your kids out of the house and refuse to let them back in. Kick them outside to play, by all means. But don't deny them entry. Home is a place of refuge where we are always welcome. By the same token, none of this "Okay, if you are not coming, I will leave you..." at the store nonsense. Kids should never ever have to worry, even for a second, that their folks are going to leave them. Sorry to disagree.

4. Pro: Parsnips. Delicious.

5. Con: labeling the Easter peanut butter eggs from Reeses as "Reester Eggs." Because I want a little more gonorrhea with my chocolate.

6: Pro: Legal immigration. Come on in, pay some taxes, follow the rules, buy our stuff.

7. Cons: Socialized health care. I spent this weekend in the ER for 10 hours. I can't believe that people who think that there should be government-given health care for all have ever been to the ER for any amount of time on a weekend. It is the most horrible, ridiculous place ever. And if more people have socialized medicine, more people will be waiting for a flu shot at 3 am.

8. Pro: Dr Who.

9. Con: Dr Scholl's commercials where they repeat "I'm Gellin."

Are you fer it, or agin it? Let me know!

Making Up My Mind

Well, in Texas we don't get to vote until a month after Super Tuesday. Which means I still have some time to decide.

I asked DaStew about why I should vote for Obama. He said, essentially, because O is a socialist, and not crazy, as opposed to the other three choices.

I asked Azucar if she thought Romney would get a VP nom, and she said no.

I would have asked Ames' mom, but I think she is still in mourning over her boyfriend.

Cjane and the Legislators say to go with His Royal Crap-Dancingness.

I found this article, which I like. I am still on stage one. Don't expect to get much further...

So, what should I do?
