Just Say no.
Tam and Roberta are flogging the concept of voting “Do not retain” for Justice Steven H David.
I couldn’t agree more. preaching to the choir, here, because I ALWAYS vote ‘no” every time to retain all judges, unless I have personal experience of them doing an exemplary job, an occurrence that has happened exactly never.
A week or so ago, Mr B opined that “The lesser of two evils is still evil” he’s exactly correct. A lot of people use this logic as a reason not to vote; those people are beyond anything but soylent green.
let me explain. Look at this chart:
I have never had a single person who could tell me how to get clear from -5 to 5 without going through -4, -3, -2, etc. To get from -5 to 5 you have to move, and not voting or voting for someone unelectable is not an option. Look what Ross Perot bought us. Trust me, if someone said “Look, if we take this timeship through the eye of uranus, we could go right from -5 to 5” I would be SO on board, but until the Doctor shows up (And it would have to be a non idiot doctor, unlike the ones that we get nowadays) I doubt we have much of a chance.
So vote. Vote to get rid of the bum that wrote away our rights, and vote to try to increment the country back to some semblance of sanity. It might not happen in our lifetimes, but we have to start somewhere, and we’ve been sitting on our asses whining and have allowed ourselves to get to this point.
For reference, I feel that Reagan was about a -1 on the above chart.
Hell yes.
And yeah, Reagan probably would have agreed with you. With that twinkle he’d get in his eye when he said so, too ;)
Is a lazy, golf loving -5 better or worse than a workaholic, get’s-things-done -4?
prezactly. of course if you equate what Romney will do with what Obama has done, then that just makes you a moron. Romney may be capable of -4 evil, but it’s MY KIND of evil, thankyouverymuch.
Looks like we gonna get Mr. -5 back:

Intrade is almost never wrong about these things.
This is pretty good, but it sounded better the other night. Keep on trying and maybe soon we’ll know that He’s decided to give you the key to open many more hearts.
Or Intrade is being played just like the polls.
In my book all politicians start with a -1 and then proceed to gain negative points.
