[nabs-l] Voting in the Upcoming November Election

Sun Nov 2 02:45:26 UTC 2014

Abstaining from carrying out a privilage that many a people went so 
far as to lose their lives, and limb to protect, frankly, to me is 
stinking chickenshit! Remember, people died so that everyone could 
vote. Such a heavy-handed slap in the face, all because you don't 
find value in how the vote opperates within the current constraints 
of the good old
American 2-party political sham. Don't blaim the vote, or those who 
protected the right to execute this civil right. Now, if in fact, you 
are realizing that the Almighty, Republicans, and Democrats are 
actually the very same animal, only diverging on the standard and 
relatively polerizing wedge issues, you may be on to something. But, 
they want many of us to attribute the ways in which one's vote 
appears not to be all that far reaching, with the simple fact of 
their using the Republican-Democrat dicodomy, to divide us. It's the 
system they have that divides  us, don't think chasing the so-called 
Independent party, or even the Libertarian party, will offer too much 
of a difference when,  To me, it's not about subscribing to the Red, 
or the Blue, but about not subscribing to any of the colors 
represented within their system. Notice how, none of the elected 
officials ever truly advocate for our interests. And by that I mean 
all so-called special interests?
for today, Car People ought to be able to lead themselves, don't you 
think?:19 PM 11/1/2014, wmodnl wmodnl via nabs-l wrote:
