Dear citizens of the USA:
There is a group of criminals in your midst.
36 have been accused of spousal abuse,
7 have been arrested for fraud,
19 have been accused of writing bad checks,
117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses,
3 have done time for assault,
71, repeat 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit,
14 have been arrested on drug-related charges,
8 have been arrested for shoplifting,
21 currently are defendants in lawsuits, and
84 have been arrested for drunk driving
in the last year.
Can you guess which organization this is?
It's the 535 members of the United States Congress.
The same group of Idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of you in line.
And they were elected by you the people!
You didn't vote? Well then you elected them by letting others decide for you.
Democracy is the only system that ensures that people get what they deserve.
We have a saying in Norway: "The one who keeps silent agrees".
Next time: Get out there and VOTE!

Unfortunately, voting doesn't seem to do a whole lot of good where I live. (and yes, I vote). The last presidential election had people truly believing that if they voted against Bush, that terrorists would attack us again. Fucking propaganda..... People often vote out of fear of consequences or fear of tarnishing their image more out of voting for right or wrong.

aaah what an eye opener!
