Democracy
The government of our democracy consists of self-serving elitists who strive to portray themselves as public servants.
For them no distortion is too extreme to declare fact, no act of violence is too reprehensible to order; these are men who will sacrifice others for the sake of their personal gain, bleed the coffers of the charitable dry, and send innocents to die on the many battlefields of wars declared for the sake of profiteering – all while they proclaim their personal righteousness and god-fearing humility.
Should they grasp for too much and be exposed for their crimes they will – without fail – fall back upon their only defense: we voted for them.

How often are the elections “too close to count” – and how different are those in the running?
in ‘hey rube’ the late dr. Hunter S. compared the bush over kerry victory to a coin flip. it’s a 50/50 shot for both candidates and it’s the same thing you’d expect to happen if no one really cared who is going to win. just remember, “you can’t complain if you don’t vote!”
There are many reasonable actions which may substitute for submitting a ballot.
As for myself, I’m honing my skills at confabulation, public relations, and skulduggery.
