Who the hell cares? Regardless of who I vote for, they think along party lines and don't think for themselves, so why should I care?

If you really want to make a difference, people should be voting for their city councils/mayors/sheriffs/judges/etc.

I'm not bragging that I didn't vote, I'm just merely pointing out that bragging that you did vote is kinda stupid.
I approve of this message.

Should have made it into a Goldstar. Like the stickers you used to get at school when you do well.

They'll sure spend more time on that topic than they will on the tragedy that happened in Benghazi.

Longer than that. They'll keep analyzing one election until the next one picks up.

Except Fox, love 'em hate 'em.

Too bad the news isn't just that, news. Give me the info and let me decide. I have to go to P&N to get a BS filter on both parties and the networks. And I need a P&N filter to filter the BS.
