Hey there ... yeah you .... Backwash .... c'mere .... you've been *had*

Yanno, I really gotta laugh at you people.

You voted for this sham and what do you get for it? Youre familiy has just as much unemployment as mine.

You pay the same three bux plus fer gas.

Your kids are dying over there just like ours are.

You grampa will have to live without that Parkinsons fix, just like ours will. You're momma ain't gettin' no quick fix fer her Alzheimers either. Just like ours.

Abortion is still legal for your daughter, just like it is for mine.

Your side had a lotta pension losers because of Enron just like our side did.

You're not one damned bit better off now than when that asshole preacher told you to vote for the fake 'man of god' back in '99.

You got no damned benefit at ALL from these 'tax breaks' he sold ya ... other than that three hunnert buck shopping orgy at WalMart way back when. Why? Cuz, no matter what ya think ... you just ain't rich. Sorry to be the one to break that news to ya. See, we're all working people, you and us. You have to go to work every day whether you wanna or not. So do we.

Y'ever think about why we're where we are today? I mean really think about it? They sold a bill of goods and you ..... YOU! ..... bought it. It all sounded so seductive, didn't it? Well don't feel bad. Even the old timey snake oil salesmen sold that shit. Their customers were called suckers. The customers of the modern day snake oil guys are called Backwash. That would be you.

We'll, I'm gonna do a real Christian thing here. Just this once. I'm gonna offer you forgiveness. But with a condition.

Here's the deal. I was raised Catholic. So I'll kinda approach the deal with that persepctive. I'm gonna offer you a chance at redemption if only you'll do some Penance.

For your Penance, no Hail Mary's. No rosaries. No visits to the sick.

Just do this one thing and I'll letcha slide.

Come this November ... long about the 7th? Just stay home. Don't leave to go anywhere. I'll clear it with yer boss. Just sit home and watch Price is Right and Oprah. You'll hear lotasa people tellin' ya to go and vote. Don't listen. Its those snake oil guys again. Just stay home and kiss your dog and your wife. Play a little Monopoly with the kids; let them get as close as they're ever gonna to being rich.

We'll take care of things outside on that day.

Okay?

Deal?

(edit for spelling)

:bounce:

:evilgrin:

the guy knows how to throw the long ball.

i have avoided it for a year after moderating in here

:rofl:

I think it would do you good:)


Great post, btw...

but telling them to stay home will most likely make them turn out to vote..

Can we rage on those repugs with extreme pregidous?

(pssst: Here's a hint ...... tell your handler that you got a **real** warm welcome to DU. It will help on your fitness report, okay? :) )
