Don’t vote. Don’t tell 5 friends. Just don’t


This one’s safe for work:

This one, not safe for work (profanity, usually mild – democratic ideas), but much funnier, and much more serious at the same time — I wish I’d known about it two months ago.  Not nearly enough people have watched these, according to the YouTube counts:

    Mitchell, put down the Neo-con Kool-Aid and turn off the Faux News and Rush Limbaugh.

    Accept reality for a change.

    Yes, I wished I’d known about these videos some time ago, but they still are worth a smile and a hope that people will get out to vote.

    I voted early – and not on one of those machines like in Palo Pinto County, TX, that changes straight-party Democrat votes into straight-party Republican votes.

    Ed, if the Luddites on the Texas State Board of Education can fine textbook publishers for errors (not that they would necessarily know what constitutes an error), can’t the same (or worse) be done for voting machine manufacturers whose machines make errors of that sort?

    Early voter, done.

    I kinda hate that I do care so much this year. I mean, in 2000, I could’ve been happy with McCain. Now, um, no.
