not okay

telling people to vote for the lesser of two evils 

is like telling a pregnant woman to marry 

the psychologically abusive alcoholic, 

because, "at least he doesn't hit you."

using guilt trips and threats to make them do it

is just more psychological abuse.

that is not how we heal.

heal yourself first,

don't do it for you, 

do it for the babies

do we want them growing up

thinking this is okay?

emotional triggers

...dialectic and the illusion of choice
and the manufacture of fear and lies
blame game, self destruct
what they do isn't up to you

lipstick on a pig while the war rages on

neither of them can change a damn thing because of the presidential directives bush passed into law that says new administration is not allowed to disagree with previous admin's policies. so it's just four more years of bush and cheney since nobody is willing to go against the patriot act and other associated bad laws.

...so if none of the candidates will be allowed to end the war(s) started by bush, why should i vote for any of them? war is against everything i believe in.

just because

voting is like being forced at gunpoint to choose which rope you want hung with. the courts are just another special interest group, and the game is cheat 'til you win. they don't represent me.
