5 Good Reasons to Vote Today

1. IT'S A NATIONAL REFERENDUM. Although candidates' names will be on the ballot today, this election is NOT about this candidate or that candidate. Make no mistake about it: This election is nothing less than a National Referendum on George W. Bush and his War. Don't waste your time trying to learn about who the schlump is that's running for office. You know they're all pretty much the same, a few are better than others, but... please. They is who they is. THIS election is not about them. It's a simple up or down vote on staying the course.

To vote in favor of the war, vote for the Republican. To vote against the war, vote for the Democrat. As crazy as it sounds, even if the Republican is against the war, or the Democrat is for it, it doesn't matter. All that will matter by midnight tonight is the math on the big tote board. Did America say YES to Bush or NO to Bush? The ONLY way they're going to add it up is by counting the number of votes under the big D and the big R. The only way to take a stand against Bush today is to vote for the Dems on the ballot.

2. IN ORDER TO CATCH THE REPUBLICANS STEALING YOUR VOTE, YOU FIRST HAVE TO VOTE. There are huge and valid concerns about the new electronic voting machines that must be addressed. It is far too easy to use new technology to rig the vote. But if your fear of that leads you to decide that you shouldn't bother voting, well, then, I guess they've succeeded in snuffing out your voice without having to rig the machine. Make them break the law if they want to win. Vote. We'll catch them if they do. I promise.

3. WITH THE DEMOCRATS IN POWER IN THE HOUSE AND/OR SENATE, WE CAN GO AFTER THEM! These spineless Democrats who enabled Bush to start this war and funded it ever since are due for a shellacking from all of us. For nearly 6 years, they've hidden behind the cop-out of, "Hey, we're the minority, we have no power." As of tomorrow, hopefully, they will have no mask to hide behind. And it will be up to us to go after them.

4. I'LL PUT YOU ON MY WEBSITE. That's right. You can appear on my home page and be seen by millions later today. All you need to do is bring a broom when you go to vote. The broom is our mascot today because we're going to sweep the crooks and the warmongers outta office. Take a picture of yourself holding a broom outside your polling place, e-mail it to me, and I'll put as many of you as I can up on the home page of my website. People all around the world will see you! Government files with your name on them will be initiated! What better way to celebrate this historic day?!

And the final reason to vote today...

5. 2,836 + 655,000. Each one of them, American and Iraqi, are no longer with us because of the decision by one man to start a war. Each one of them represented a precious, God-given life that no man had the right to take away. Each one of them had a mother and father, sisters, brothers, husbands, wives, friends and loved ones, little boys and little girls. It's mad, my friends, utterly mad, this senseless loss of human life.

So, do it for them. Call up whoever you know and tell them to meet you at the polls. And tell them to bring a broom, real or imaginary, with a big D on it. It's the only true American thing to do.

See ya at the victory party tonight!

Rather conspicuous that Jimmy Carter's main man laid so low during the election run-up.

[AmericanMade1776]

Where is Michael Moore Loser, you never see him out an about anywhere these days?

[VanDeKoik]

I had 3000 reasons since 2001 to vote today.

I have to stand in place of 3000 people who sadly no longer are alive to vote against leftist pigs like you.

[CzarNicky]

voting against democrats is all the reason I need.

[RegulatorCountry]

"Don't waste your time trying to learn about who the schlump is ..."

Insider advice, from one schlump to another, lol.

[Ouderkirk]

Sure, Mike. Anything you say..... what a maroon.

[claudiustg]

---Don't waste your time trying to learn about who the schlump is that's running for office. ---

Isn't that the Democratic Party Motto?

[ChicagoConservative27]

What a commie pig. It's all about how can we "get" Republicans.

[Theresawithanh]

Wow, a chance to appear on MMs website! Be still, my heart!

Another reason to hope the dems lose today, people looking like idiots on the net for all to see, holding their brooms when they were the party which was swept!

I can't believe people actually listen to this maroon.

This fat piece of sh!t hasn't exploded yet?

Here was what was said at Spinsanity.com in response to his claims in "Bowling for Columbine:"
(http://64.233.161.104/search?q=cache:2GwzfPgcpDIJ:www.spinsanity.org/columns/20021119.html+%22inaccuracy+in+comedy%3F%22+moore&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=1)


"Here, as ever, Michael Moore just doesn't seem to know what he thinks. When pressed, in fact, he isn't even sure he actually has a point. Appearing on CNN's Moneyline last spring, host Lou Dobbs asked him about the inaccuracies in Stupid White Men. "How can there be inaccuracy in comedy?" Moore responded."

"Satire is not an excuse for dissembling. Great satirists like Jonathan Swift and Mark Twain used hyperbole as a form of social criticism. Michael Moore, however, uses lies, distortions, and nonsensical arguments to mask cheap attacks and promote his own political agenda. Take him seriously at your own risk."

I think the last paragraph says it all.

Moore plays on the ignorance and gullibility that are the hallmarks of the averaga liberal. Too bad that the schools and universities keep pumping them out.

[Question Liberal Authority]

You know, these EXACT SAME PEOPLE will tell you that the Civil War was not about slavery, because the causes were just far too complex to peg on any one issue.

But you can bet your bippy that any gains taken by Democrats will be called "a referendum on Bush and his failed war" by this crowd.

6. YOU GET TO STOP AT MCDONALDS BOTH GOING TO AND FROM THE POLLS.

Michael Moore: ... (Barf alert)

Redundant.

5 Good Reasons why people should avoid Michael Moore at all costs:
1. His outward appearance. As you can tell just by looking at him, he's repulsively obese, and I've heard that he has major B.O.
2. His attitude. He has a very foul mouth, is incredibly arrogant, and trashes anyone, public figure or private citizen, who disagrees with him.
3. His political leanings. Moore stands for Socialism. Most Americans with fully functional brains realize that Socialism is a very flawed system which will never work out successfully in real life.
4. His blatant lack of morals or honesty. He constantly uses dishonest and unethical tactics to get people to buy into his theories (i.e. in "Roger and Me," he made an old friend of his, an attorney who was very well- known for his pro- bono activism work on behalf of Flint's poor, look like some callous rich jerk).
5. His blatant hypocrisy. He claims to be fighting the evil corporations for his fellow man, but once publicly said, "F%^k all these small businesses, F$%k 'em all. We need to bring in the chains," and referred to the owners of small businesses as "The rednecks who run the towns and suppress the people." He also makes Halliburton look like the true force of evil in the world, yet he secretly owns several shares of stock in it.
