Interesting. You equate a conscious decision to withhold approval of a given candidate with apathetic disengagement.
Do you not check to see what fillings are in the sandwich before biting it?
Huh? I just said if you decide not to vote, you lose your right to bitch and moan.
I've got a neighbor that is constantly complaining about Obama. I asked him if he voted for Obama or McCain and he said, "Hell, no, I couldn't vote for either one of them so I didn't vote at all!"
Well, guess what, pal? Anything you say after that falls on deaf ears. If you can't take it upon yourself to cast a vote, ANY VOTE... FOR ANYBODY, in the election... You lose your right to bitch and moan. If you throw away your right to be heard at the ballot box, you're just blowing smoke and you throw away your right to be heard, period.
Call it what you want, but the truth is it's lazy and pathetic.
