Why vote when you have no choice?

[Anarchy-Balsac]

Kerry said he'd escalate the war in Iraq

The republican congress has done nothing but spend

When republicans propose a tax cut, so do the demo crates

An overwhelming number of both democrates and republicans both voted to give Bush authority to go to war in Iraq

Bush supports our current gun control laws and said he'd sign another assault weapons ban if congress passed it

The republicans talk of making the Bush tax cuts permanant, but fail to do so

Clinton supported stronger law enforcement

The "conservative" supreme court upheld the campaign finance reform laws

Elected democrates refuse to do anything about drug, prostitution, and gambling laws("controversy" is their excuse[BULLSHIT])

Republicans support medicare(yeah, some measure they passed not too long ago)

Democrates block judicial nominees, but republicans do nothing to stop them, even when they become the majority

Democrates pass Ashcroft despite their voiced opposition to them, and refuse to filibuster

Republican vote with democrates to pour more money into failed government programs

The list goes on, but I think you get the point. I think everyday democrates and republicans are different, but elected ones ones don't some any different. It seems to me they do the exact same thing.

It's a quote from 'The Simpsons'.

Well, you don't have to vote as you know, but each party will run the country differently, it's that simple.

Now that I think of it, that Simpson episodes reflects exactly what this guy is saying.
CRAZY!

See that's why the U.S. needs more party choices to choose from. With only two choices and the other Nader, who doesn't even show up on all the ballots, you don't have much choice at all... and who the hell is going to vote for Nader?

Most other democratic nations, have more than one party. Use Iraq's recent election for example, they had like 75 to choose from. Canada has about 4-5 of them, depending on whether one party backs out or not.

Liberals won the election with 36% of the vote, Conservatives with 28%, NDP (New Democrats) with 20% and Bloc Quebecois with 11%. Then there's a few other smaller independant parties you can vote for if you want and altogether they got like 5% of the vote. We even have a Marijuana Party.

No he didn't, get your facts straight.

I wouldn't say half the democrats is an overwhelming number

Democrates block judicial nominees, but republicans do nothing to stop them, even when they become the majority

Democrats have blocked like 4. Republicansblocked many of Clinton's nominees.

Democrates pass Ashcroft despite their voiced opposition to them, and refuse to filibuster

42 Democrats voted against him, you can't filibuster everything.

Best song ever to explain the situation:

Let's get out and vote!
Let's make our voices heard!
We've been given the right to choose
between a douche and a turd.

It's democracy in action!
Put your freedom to the test.
A big fat turd or a stupid douche.
Which do you like best?
