My absentee ballot that doesn't count....

....shall be cast in favor of...

This guy.



I do find it ironic by the way, that the soldiers can vote, but their vote actually means nothing in actually deciding the politicians who may ultimately decide their fate. All because Americans are too stupid impatient to wait for a batch of ballots to be overnighted...

duh.

Our country is ridiculous sometimes.

Anyways, on to my explanation of why I'm voting for Mr. Obama. Then those of you Christians reading this who are starting to pick up axes and guns can put them down, because I assure you, voting republican is no more "Christian" than killing a man. Because ultimately that's what you did by putting a gun-toting redneck in office (sorry, i had to...)

Honestly, when looking at the line up of candidates, my initial thought was "why bother?"

But then I would be able to label myself as a hypocrite, because I'm always harping on people who don't vote. So I NEED to vote for someone. Hence my problem.

So I'm voting for Obama, simply because he is the least annoying of the group.

That's it. No particular philosophical reason or anything. He's just least ridiculous.

It is a sad day, me thinks, when Josh Graber can't find a good reason to side with or against a politician.

Ladies and gentlemen of the USA, I may never come home.

that's ok. i'm fine with enacting out plans in another country

i too am voting for obama, but that's because i think he'll be a good president, i've been paying a lot of attention to this election because i feel like i need to make up for the days when i was uninformed and voted for whoever my dad told me to (republican)....which means i voted for bush....there i said it....i feel dirty. and wholly and completely regret doing that, i didn't realy begin to think about things like i do now till i was a senior in college.

i need to go take a shower now, i need to wash the guilt off of me
