Advertisements [?]
Some rethug freak today told me it wasn't possible..... yet here I sit!
He assured me that I should be voting republican.... based on those two things alone. He even gave me a list....

Yea, I own my daddy's service 45 and a lady mossberg.....

I think if a machine (i learned in elementary school the human body is a machine) is dangerous to others.... it should be turned off.

Below is the list I wrote to him:

BUT.....
I think that this nation (as great as it is) has given minorities, immigrants and women the shitty end of the stick.
I don't believe in limiting immigration (as all 4 of my grandparents were illegal)
I believe this is a judeo-christianmuslimbuddhistwiccanhinduatheist nation
I believe in a woman's right to choose
I believe that food, shelter, education and health care are RIGHTS not things we get if we're real good
I believe in the nationalization of the energy and healthcare industries
I believe that our rights to privacy, assembly, free press and speech are sacred
I believe that the laws apply to everyone
I believe that the environment is a precious resource that ought to be protected
.... the only resource that we have that is more valuable is our people (citizen and not).... which deserves REAL protection, not the kind offered by the patriot act.
I still believe in juries and voting (if you are a felon who has served your time.... please write your governor and have your rights restored... we need you)

I'm sure there's more.....
