You don't count.

One vote does not count. 
How many time have you heard the phrase, "your one vote counts". This is the biggest bunch of BS ever uttered, drunk or sober.  Your one vote hasn't mattered in years, and won't for years to come.  Could you imagine, "The next president elected by one vote?' How about "Social Security saved by one vote." It won't happen, it can't happen, and it will never happen.  Your one vote has already been bought by the party of choice. See, they don't just buy one vote, they buy a bunch of votes  Yes, they being the political parties, gather in as many votes as possible.  Now it is theirs to do with whatever way they want.  No, you don't have a say, you gave your vote to that party. By voting party line, you have, "sold your soul to the company store". If you didn't vote either party, you just threw away your vote. The last thing that either party wants is for you to not vote party line.  They want to make it nice a neat for you, just pull that one party switch, and they will do all the rest. As far as changing things the way you want them, your vote means nothing.  There use to be two ways a vote can go, Republican or Democrat.  Now that we have become a capitalistic society, the outcome is paid for by your party selling your vote to big business. 

Changing the Diapers

I'm sorry that I havn't written in a while.  Many things have been happening this summer and my writing had to be sacrificed.  Now that it is just my wife and I in the house, I have got my office back.  Well, partially back as I share it when the grandkids are over, then half of it is a play room. Right now my grandson Deacon is suppose to be napping in his playpin, but he is awake and talking up a storm...........he is only 5 month old. While watching him it made me think of how simple life can be, and how we as adults are the ones that make it confusing.  When  Deacon is hungry, he cries.  When Deacon needs to be changed, he cries.  When Deacon is unhappy, he cries.  When Deacon is happy, he laughs.  We as adult just need to fill in the blanks.  What does Deacon want? Most of the time it is simple, one end or the other, but there are times when it is something else.  American politic are alot like a baby.  It cries when it needs more, and cries after it has given you it's shit.  A soon as the political party cries, we look for an answer and 90% of the time we find #2. It is that simple, they want attention and once they get it, they give you #2.  Right Deacon is babbling away and is happy that I am listening.  I can't understand what he is saying, but I am still listening. Deacon also reminds me that what ever he is saying could be a lie, or could be the truth.  Political parties are the same as they themselves can't tell the difference between the truth and a lie.  They, like Deacon, just want, and will say anything to get what they want. If you are wondering if I believe the mental state of the political parties is the same as the age of my grandson, you are half right.  The other half is the voting public.  Most will follow the #2 that their partty has expelled. 
People, it is very simple, don't swollow the #2 even when you are told how good it is.
