If we were as industrious to become good as to make ourselves great, we should become really great by being good, and the number of valuable men would be much increased; but it is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness; and i pronounce it as certain that there was never yet a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous." - Ben Franklin

I went to vote early this morning. I took Obama's message to heart and voted for revenge!
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

I won't be voting until after getting home from work and after picking my son up from his Karate class, so figure I'll be voting around 6PM PST.
The wife already has some pork ribs slow cooking in the crock pot and will be picking up some beer and various snacks for tonight. It's the political Super Bowl for us as I'm sure it is for many of you
Our Constitution - Article 4 Section 4: "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government."
Samuel Adams - "The utopian schemes of leveling [redistribution of wealth], and a community of goods, are as visionary and impracticable as those that vest all property in the Crown. [These ideas] are arbitrary, despotic, and, in our government, unconstitutional."
James Madison, author of the Constitution - "I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents."
'Is there anything wrong with anything.' Is that what you're asking, friendo?
Done! I also followed Obama's suggestion, and thought about that REVENGE as I voted for Romney and Ryan.
Life's a Beach. Voting against Obama. A Pleasure.
I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
So, this is for them.

I am not absent. The poll place is just over 1 block from me. I like to use the so called absentee ballot. I can walk that block for free. I walked 3 blocks to the local PO and paid .65 in postage.
So, why not merely walk the block?
I think it is because when I started using the absentee ballot, I was about to leave on a trip so to ensure I voted, I asked for the absentee form.
I like it.
I can mull over decisions all day long. I can use the sample ballot and mark votes then if I want to, change my vote.
What annoys me is the local people running for office never mention party. I know what Democrats want and I want just the opposite so I sure wish I knew the party of our locals.
I had used my sample ballot to vote for city council. I changed one vote. I discovered this Korean guy was a republican. I cancelled the other vote to vote for him. I probably voted for a Chinese woman to remain on city council. I have been elected myself and I value knowledge of what is going on. It takes new people more time than they think it will to get up to speed.
When I got elected, I had to master the book called Roberts Rules of Order. Had I not learned it, I would have been a sitting duck in the meetings.
Often I can tell their party by what they brag about.
I noticed that the republicans were always listed second or last on the ballots. After I figured that out, when there was no party listed and I didn't know about the person I voted for the one listed second or last.
When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.
You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.
Anyone hear about the polling place in Philly that had a giant mural of Obama on the wall right behing the voting booths?

Abbey. I saw that on the DRUDGE REPORT only. And not like I didn't expect to hear such a thing.
Based on many past years of going to the polls. Nothing surprises me. Thankfully, much of the stupidity is minor, and just the Testing of Ignorance by Ignorant people. To see WHAT, and HOW MUCH they can get away with...before Whining about something stupid.

My sister, 32 years old and among the most apolitical people ever, voted in her first presidential election.
At the present, we are attempting to tally the vote in my politically divided family.
My side of the family normally votes Democratic (except for my cousin in Dallas).
My husband's side of the family votes Republican. I might have won over my mother-in-law, but she won't tell anyone.
Oh Lord
The day my vote helped elect Jimmy Carter, I was in heaven.
I mean that.
Today the country ratified it's enormous mistake. How the hell can people get fooled over and over.
I sure did not vote for Carter when Reagan ran against him.
I got smarter. I abandoned the Democrat party as being full of crapola.
The media did a very poor job explaining the daily suffering of those hit by Sandy. My news makes it seem Obama saved them all. Then today I watch a video proving that the people to this moment are suffering and they say Obama is full of crap. They want help. They are not getting it.
If the freedom of speech is taken away
