Obama Supporters Should Vote Jill Stein (rant)

You are going to hop on the bandwagon of people who support the Goldman Sachs candidate? .. Throw your arms up in the air, give up, and piss all over the citizens of the world like everybody else to mitigate the short-term oppression... I guess I have more in common with Gary Johnson supporters, Ron Paul supporters, non-voters, and others who oppose the poor voting of the masses instead of joining it.

You are the one pissing all over the citizens of the world by encouraging votes which would contribute to putting power back into the hands of the party which advocates American Exceptionalism [translation: pre-emptive 'defensive' military action and unilateral foriegn action]. I don't believe you are a sincere supporter of any of the unknown candidates. You are just one more Romney supporter looking to co-opt an election in underhanded ways, not at all surprising or unusual.

Barney Frank said it best: The Democrats aren't perfect, but the Republicans are totally crazy.

In the local elections and the election is close, I'm going to vote for the Democrat just because they're far less evil than the Republicans. However, for the presidential election, I'll be voting for Jill Stein. I'm doing this because I live in Texas, one of the most conservative states in the union and I already know the state's electoral votes will go to Romney. If I lived in a battleground state, not only would I be voting for Obama, I would be volunteering for him to help him win votes.

I don't like the "Dems are just like Republicans" meme. I specifically remember that when Gore was running against Dubya. Eight years afterwards, we had alienated several foreign allies, engaged in 2 foreign wars (one of which was totally unnecessary), suffered one of the largest terrorist attacks in history, taken a budget surplus and turned it into a record budget deficit, given banks huge bailouts and divided the country in ways it had never been divided before. Those things happened under Bush, not Clinton, not Obama, Bush. As bad as Obama has been, McCain would have been worse and so would Romney. Much worse.

What would happen if everyone who thinks that way, who thinks that they should just vote for obama/romney cause 'he's at least the lesser of two evils' actually voted for who they really wanted to run the country?

You are a voice of reason. I am glad this simple concept clicks with somebody.

You're watching too much of that leftist propaganda from the talking pumpkin heads like Ed 'shit for brains' Schultz on MSLSD news. You need to stop drinking the Obama kool aid. Your brain's turning to silly putty.

Deist Paladin just made you look like an abject fool & you are responding to Min?

Why don't you try something new, say like trying to refute his points?

Oh Bullshit. DP was only repeating and rambling off the same worn out diatribe he hears on MSLSD news and other leftist propaganda networks. It would just be another back and forth argument. DP is just another indoctrinated leftist sheep.

Or in other words, you can't. Yawn.

But you can easily respond to Minimalists' rage?

Interesting...

You can only meet people emotionally, but when it comes to discussing, even in a knock-down-drag-out (Remember 0.9999 != 1 debate? I do -- that was a nicer time when people were willing to argue to the bitter end!) argument about your core political beliefs, you simply dismiss them.

In other words, you can tell others what to do, but never need to re-evaluate your position.

It must feel good to know all the answers.

Why don't you go kiss Limbaugh's fat ass, you fascist fuck.





You deserve each other.

I was going to respond with something along the lines of "so if my arguments are such bs then, why not knock them down?" but others beat me to the punch.

Sorry A Theist, but when you get all the power for 8 years, all your ideas are adopted with no strings attached and all your ideas are tried, you OWN the results.

And if you propose more of the same, as Republicans are currently doing, than it means you either like the results or your insane enough to think you're going to get a different outcome.

And before you say "liberal ideas failed too", we need a comparable test first. I've said before what that is. I want 8 years of the kind of undisputed power your team had.
