I get the joke, but it’s actually a distraction from the message Obama supporters need to be spreading right now.

This kind of open racism would have been blasted if an “elect whitey” message had been on display at the RNC. Just saying.

Is it my right NOT to vote?

Romney_Obama

For the first time in my life, I am seriously considering staying home on election day.  I am opting-out of the political process.  I have come to believe “freedom” to choose who runs our country is an illusion and that American society has no real choice in who becomes President. These two candidates we have today were bought and paid for long ago.

The electoral college is bullshit. The current system of “winner takes all” in each state warps presidential elections. Through polling, candidates and media divide the country into red and blue states, and those categorized as “swing” acquire the attention. A Washington Post analysis shows the 2012 election will be decided by roughly 916,643 “undecided” voters in six swing states.

Consider me “decided.” I have decided to sit at home, pour some Grey Goose over ice, and exercise my right NOT to vote.  Am I wrong?

Inside the President’s Limo

The President usually travels in what is referred to as ‘The Beast.’ This gigantic bomb-proof General Motors Cadillac with eight-inch thick armour-plating on its doors is usually accompanied by a motorcade of at least 20 vehicles plus a dozen police motorcycle outriders. Of course many of its features are top secret, here is what we do know. Click image for larger view. (via Daily Mail)
