An absolutely despicable Web site with an equally....
...despicable ad has been launched by the same neo-CON buttfuckers who sold the country the let's-lick-the-buttholes-of-big-pharm prescription drug plan. The site is called Don't Vote (http://www.dontvote.com) and it is a lame attempt to try and suppress the vote on November 7th. The screamingly hilarious ad shows "average American" actors attempting to convince the brain dead viewer to find out where the candidates stand on every single issue before they vote. The Rovian logic behind the ad is that unless you know everything you aren't informed enough to vote.

These fucknutsacks still think that the American people can be fooled all the time.

1. Might be able to appreciate your post more
if I weren't hurling over your imagery. Why all this "butthole licking" stuff? Your post would be more useful without it. Someone might actually read it.

5. I am of that age now and I have received
solicitations from them which have all gone in the shredder. Do you recommend an alternative organization for us over 50 citizens? The closest thing I belong to is the Fleet Reserve Association (FRA) which looks out for the interests of retired Sailors, Marines and Coast Guardsmen. Its a great organization for military retirees but I'd like to take a look at similar civilian organizations.

7. I think that seniors in this country are screwed, I joined another
...group in 2003, sent my dues which were the same as AARP, got the introductory information, then never heard from them again.

8. Thanks, I guess I'll stick with the FRA - I know I'm in good hands
with them.

4. What are you talking about? It's trying to get people to question
the candidates on what they actually stand for and not settle for the usual bullshit that politicians spread so adeptly.

6. I quit AARP when they backed the Medicare Part D scam...
But like another poster here, I think your imagery does more to gross one out than to call attention to the website. The website itself is poorly developed, and of little relevance to me, as none of the candidates running in my corner of the country (TX) have said diddly about health care. If universal health care ever gets seriously on the table, I think AARP would probably back it wholeheartedly, at which point I would rejoin.

As to the language itself, I'm angry enough at enough people in this administration/regime to use that kind of talk, but I question the sense of applying it willy-nilly to whoever might be involved.
