Beats the hell out of anyone else on my ballot tomorrow.  I'm half-convinced that I'm going to leave our governor and Senate seat options blank, because both sides suck ass. :p

I'm pretty sure that just about every state in the Union is at the same point right now.  I highly doubt that the floods of obnoxious, logic-inverting attack ads are a local phenomenon.

What has just been proposed is one mission, nay, one campaign that I would be absolutely delighted to play!

...now if only things worked in a fashion even resembling that scenario.  :ick:

Been too busy with classes to really figure out who's who and what's what with the midterm elections, so I'll probably just vote against all incumbents. Figure a lot of those folks are gonna feel some backlash anyways, so this way I can contribute!

As far as I know almost all the city dwellers are happy with Colorado right now. . .

So why do we have a constitutional amendment to outlaw abortion?

Cool... i mean, thx for clarification. And of course i'll do my job with the required seriousness that is mandatory for this responsible position.
Technically, all humans are organic machines... and i doubt anyone on this planet can pay my protection money taxe rate more then once.


EDIT: things on my to do list:

1. find coders, persuade them to work on FSO
2. have a talk with the leadership of the sy-fy channel

Under the new regime, all female foreign dignitaries...no that's a bad idea. We'll give it to Dekker.

I am Secretary of State.  In our last Cabinet Meeting, we decided that next time a terrorist nation asked for nukes, we'd send em some. 

We also decided to explore fusion...we really need a scientific advisor for Mr. President.  I'm hoping for someone who reminds me of Rockhound in Armageddon.

"I got a double doctorate from M.I.T., chemistry and geology, so what?  I won the westing house award at age 17, big deal.  Why do I do this job?  The pay ain't bad, the scenery changes, and sometimes, they let me use explosives.  OK, cyclops lady's kinda freakin me out."

I love you.
 
I was going to ask for head of military engineering. Woman shepherding is under that umbrella.
 
Also minister of war and beer.
 
Or propaganda.
Or minipax.
