The CONSPIRACY has controlled the government ever since Washington
died and this country had to go through a genuine political process to
decide who would rule. It doesn't matter WHO is in charge of this
great land of ours, because they're all lying Conspiracy Dupes who
will say and do anything. It's meaningless. And until some major
scandal rocks both halves of the Demopublican Ruling Party and makes
people realize that maybe third-party candidates CAN make a
difference, nothing's going to change.

So why bother voting?

Here's why. I went out to vote like I do every year, and I had the
good fortune to see a multi-millionaire in his fancy Armani suit,
pacing up and down on the sidewalk outside the polling area, shaking
people's hands and acting polite. He came up to me, shook my hand,
and essentially BEGGED AND GROVELLED AT MY FEET as he asked me to vote
for him. What a rush!

Voting is an illusion. But it's STILL worth it for the feeling of
POWER you get when you see these high-and-mighty wannabe rulers of our
country (dupes of the Conspiracy, one and all!) pounding the pavement
on Election Daym putting on
their false faces, and trying to act like "normal" human beings in a
show of
amiability that is so patently false, so artificial, and so OBVIOUS
that it
makes you want to burst out laughing. All of that money, that
mudslinging,
those silly "polls" and "surveys" and "debates"...and it still comes
down to
this. A smile, a handshake, and the hope that the people are so
blind, deaf,
and STUPID that they might actually believe it.

Get out there and VOTE! It's the best entertainment you can get on
Election
Day, and it's FREE!

Because if you don't and the Giant Douche wins instead of the Turd
Sandwich, it has a deleterious effect on the tone and quality of your
bitching afterwards. Besides, by the time you run for President,
you've swallowed more prong than a buck-toothed fluffer. Never mind,
Gohd will take care of it; he has a really killer wet-vac.
