“It ain’t the dang fool who votes that counts,
it’s the sumbich who counts the votes.” (or somesuch)
� Joe Stalin

BTW, how hard is it really to fill in the circle?

There are votes for Franken yet to be MADE.
I’ll bet more votes for Franken found in the closet where the janitor hangs the mops to dry. These people should be made an example of but our leaders in their infinite wisdom will take the high road and do nothing! Leading by example, or just plain lazy? I have already told the R.N.C. if they want anymore money from me they better start acting like Conservatives and start standing up to these f***ing, s***bag, ratf***ing a**holes or no more cash no matter how small the donation!

That would be a spoiled ballot. If the machine won’t read it and spits it out, it goes into a sealed envelope and is set aside away from the other ballots. THe voter is issued a new ballot after some extra paperwork and further instruction on how to mark the ballot.

The spoiled ballot is never counted or examined because a new ballot was issued to the voter.

Where are the franken pinatas?

Yup.

Needs to be in D.C.

I..I...um...I just can’t make out what the voter was saying here.  I just don’t know.

*snort*

Rickn8or, You put it in crystal context for me.

I have eight kits under my control and that will be a fantastic briefing, except for the fact that we have no problems with tool control in my labs. It would be good to assemble a briefing to send up the chain and pre-empt QA and the bosses.

Ha!  The forms, the forms!

We need to back date it to 11/3/08.  Can’t let anyone claim it happened after Nobama was selected.

I’m proud that my state is no longer a bellweather.

Coleman will lose the recount.  There are votes for Franken yet to be found.

Don’t jump.  Let me push you off instead.

I could not have said it better myself, ET.

Besides being off topic?

make that Harriet Tubman . . . sorry, din’t proof it

This is precisely the sort of pettifogging, whining, nagging, carping, quibbling, obfuscating balderdash we can expect from a society so wrapped up in guilt and political correctness that it has lost the ability to say something as simple as �Shit!� when it has a mouthful of it.

Liberalism�s primary goal is apparently to accelerate the dumbing down and polarization of what was once a proud, independent, productive, adventuresome culture.  Franken is a perfect example of the inflated and unwarranted levels of self-esteem mentioned here yesterday, and a direct result of the �I�m O.K.—You�re O.K.� myth today�s young adult generation was deceived by. 

Here we have the consequence of awarding passing grades for mere �effort� and shifting blame for individual shortcomings upon parents and �society.� The �alternative society� of the 60s and 70s where rules were abandoned and everything was free produced a crop of shitheads in our schools masquerading as educators who sowed their ideas and replicated themselves manifold in harvests of ignorant shitheads who are at this very moment planting the seeds for even more bountiful yields of air-headed surrender- monkey shitheads.

Loyalty, patriotism, self-sufficiency, modesty, respect, accountability, and honest labor are old-fashioned concepts, relics from a by-gone day when America was a coarse, brutal, unsociable, swaggering bully who became strong by subjugating poorer, less fortunate struggling nations.  Harriet Tubbs is FAR more important and germane than Thomas Paine.  Maya Angelou is FAR more insightful and pertinent than Shakespeare.  Martin Luther King is FAR more humanistic and profound than Thomas Jefferson.

Ah, well, as the Fwentch say, such is life.  But my take on it all is that we desperately need an emergency injection of the Samurai ethic.  Children need to hear about El Cid, not MTV; Siegfried, not the Chicago Seven; King Arthur, not American Idol; Teddy Roosevelt, not Che Guevara.

Socialism is here to stay, mes enfants.  The monumentally unaware majority has spoken, and what it wants is a plush recliner chair at the foot of the government cornucopia, a guarantee of total impunity for personal failure, and a national policy which will make everybody love us so that together we can solve all the world�s problems with biofuels and wind turbines and save the precious polar bears.

Well, bon chance, mes amis.  Send me a postcard from the 9th level.

It should have been tied into the bag!

That sign shouldn’t be in NYC but in Washington DC.

MiT, shouldn’t a highly educated Harvard elitist decide who that vote is for?  Clearly the person voting couldn’t follow instructions.

Looks like a vote for Norm to me.

Steppy, it is only going to get better.
Have you tried to Orville Redenbacher’s lime and salt popcorn?
It’s pretty good.
