Dear Politicians

[Marigold2]

Oh my God yes. I am so incredibly tired of this BS I want to scream. No one tells us what they stand for or their vision just what an SOB the other person is. Those adds that come in the mail telling me how to vote, right in the trash can they go. I don't even bother to look at them.
I get my facts elsewhere as do most of us.
But you know friends that as soon as the election is over we will be bombarded with
CHRISTMAS COMMERICALS!!!!!!!!!!
It just seems like there is no end in sight to the consent stream of brainwashing we put up with through TV, print, phone adds.
Buy this, buy that, you kid needs this toy for Christmas, this new gadjet is a must have.
It is like we are mindless robots buying what is put in front of us the most.
I plan on buying lots of books for Christmas presents and things people need not the new fad.
Ah well here I am talking and what do I want for Christmas but a Coach purse, kettle black folks. LOL

Dear Politicians,

Instead of using the ads you're purchasing to tell me why I should not vote for your opponent, could you please use them to tell me why I should vote for you?

Thank you,
Elyse


Dear readers of this thread, my town has a "Home Rule?" referendum on the Nov. 2 ballot. What is home rule, and is it good?

There are those phone calls too. You run your butt off to get to the phone & then there are the politicans & their buddies talking up a recorded storm. I even got included in another town meeting. It is the same old same old. Make promises & don't keep them. Raise the taxes too why don't they & Give themselves a raise to boot.

I got rid of my land line when Bush called.

Don't fret; they will do all the above and more. They are just waiting until after the election hoping we won't notice!

*Yawn*..Okay, I'm asleep at 8a. I refuse to answer my land line. Duh...it automatically will ring my cell if I don't answer. But if I don't recognize the #, it's an auto delete. I don't know how much more I can take. Geez, every channel, interrupting my fave shows with a gaziilion wicked, evil commercials. Count down until Nov 2. (I'm watching TV now...4 ads after another..AHHHHH!) Of course I'll vote to the best of my knowledge, but I'm tempted to disconnect my door bell too. (Poor Logan barking all day long!) More junk mail to shred! Ick. Ick. Ick

Liz..better put out those posters on your front yard before it's too late!!

Yeah, my yard sign is out there. Same sign I used two years ago.
boy, those things are durable.(Much like the candidate)

Wouldn't do any good to switch signs, my neighbors have one just like mine.
