Haven’t Voted Yet?

Go now and fling them out!

These are not people you want to have practically unchecked power.
The counterargument is that the Democrats will be gutless and no real threat to the security state the GOP has spent four years building. I think that’s probably true. However, there is still one principle worth upholding: throw the bums out. Voting is like being strapped into a high chair and offered a couple of bowls of mush. The one useful way to communicate is to fling whatever they made you eat yesterday against the wall. Go now and fling.

Yep, the republicans need to be thrown out.

Unfortunately, no matter who wins we will, for the most part, still be stuck with democrats or republicans.

We add boarders all day Friday plus intermittently on Saturday and Sunday so visit frequently.

Note for Haloscan Users:

Over the past month or so Haloscan started (the end of July) handling of trackbacks has improved though it is still pretty broken for carnival type posts. Now, instead of rejecting every attempt to ping it accepts single pings for a while and then will start rejecting them. I will keep trying to track back to Haloscan boarders but can make no guarantees for any particular week.

Note for Typepad Users:

Typepad continues to behave similar to Haloscan for trackbacks. I have, though, for the past month been able to get trackbacks to most, if not all, Typepad based boarders. I have to do it one at a time and wait a while in between pings but Typepad does not go into semi-permanent rejection mode like Haloscan.
