Quote of the day

Filed under: — stan @ 7:05 pm

I think this makes it for Quote of the Day regarding the last election:

“Quite frankly, I’m sick of having a spoon of shit forced down my throat each Fall.”

Sadly, we here are familiar with that feeling. I’ve been voting since 1978. It was 1986 when I finally saw someone I voted for win. And in 7 tries, I’ve only gotten my choice for President twice. There is also a school of thought that this shows that democracy is actually working. Everyone comes away a little bit unhappy when things are working correctly.

    Everyone is also unhappy when they don’t feel like they have *real* choices…

    Yes, that’s always true. It’s not been all that many times that I’ve been really enthusiastic about any candidate for public office. But at the same time, I’ve never had trouble making up my mind who to vote for.
