it cracks me up

Posted by justme at Tuesday, November 04, 2008
it cracks me up when people assume that they know your political affiliations. i didn't even know my affiliations, so i sure do not expect others to know, unless they have asked and i have told them. what is the funniest is that many times, it's with people you do not know or haven't talked to in ages. I cannot tell you the number of times that I got, "well, as long as you're voting for McCain you can go...don't bother going if you are going to vote for Obama" or my favorite, "let's wait to see obama go into the ground" now, i don't care either way, which way you voted. really, and i surely wouldn't be telling people that they should be voting for someone when i don't know what has happened to them in the past 15 years that would sway them in any way. it just cracks me up, that's all.

I can't STAND ppl trying to push their political views on to anyone...unless of course that anyone is someone who has no clue about politics -- then hey, they're fair game at that point.

I just hate the people who vote purely on political party -- "I won't vote for Obama, b/c he's a democrat and Clinton was a democrat and he said he would lower taxes and he didn't" -- so I responsd. "Well, Bush is republican and you hate him and everything he's done these past 4 years, so then, according to the way you 'think', McCain is shit too." -- to which that person responded "Oh, good point."

Seriously, WTF.. if you can't decide at least pick ONE issue that you are concerned about and vote for the person who shares the same views...then -- we know you're vote isn't worth shit.
