The topic: We vote by mail

----------------------------------------------

This year, we never got around to filling in the ballots so we did that this morning and they'll be dropped off at a polling place sometime today.

And finally being fed up enough with the status quo, we voted for NO incumbents, we voted for NO Democrats or Republicans.  We really liked the idea of the few people on the ballot who had NONE as party affiliation.

We're just sick of the two party circus, how partisan it's become. Time to do away with this archaic but well-funded system.

Corporations are NOT people and people should be limited to how much they can donate. Letting anyone give as much as they want to anyone will skew the balance of ads. We have one guy on the ballot, a newcomer, a Republican, running for governor. Last week, when I went out to get the mail, his flyer was twice the size of all the others. It seems that every hour on television that I see an ad for him.

I knew immediately I wouldn't vote for him. "He's got too much money" I told Brian. Too much money for ads, well funded campaign coffers. And don't tell me there's not some sort of prid pro quo that goes along with that. 

And it's both parties. Neither one seems to have a conscience. (Come on, Obama helping out Monsanto? The manufacturers of GMO? That really bothers me and I voted for the man. Twice! I still consider him the lesser evil, but still...)

It's time to vote the bums out. Let them know we mean business. We're the citizens, they work for us, the ninety-eighty percenters, not big business and not the two percenters. Give us back our government.
