Old Man Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Yeah, well, I don't want to live in a place where thinking is considered evil/subversive, either. Yet you live in the United States. Cancer and Bazza 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Yeah, but in a part marked for death by the Red States, so I cling to that fringe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Dude, all you have to do is drive ten miles past the city limits over there and you're effectively in a red state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 A bit more than that if you choose your direction carefully, but you are correct. Fortunately, even by both vote count and dollars, King County outweighs the rest of the state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 If it wasn't that way, the state would have declared a $5 a head bounty on pinkos and killed us all off decades ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 I own no guns, I don't attend an approved evangelical church, I have a PhD, and I believe Division I college athletics should be abolished. I am either a pinko or an antichrist (and I recognize the difference is subtle). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Well, for a very long time that was generally taken to be merely a sign of benign mental derangement. Only in the last couple years has it gained status as an indicator of communist tendencies. Pariah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Over here, you'd probably vote for some of the middle-of-the-way parties, like the Greens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 When I am not in a situation of two-party tyrrany where the choices are "really bad" and "apocalyptically bad", I tend to vote for splinter parties who have no chance of gaining any elected position.

Cancer Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 We once had the OWL party here, where OWL meant Out With Logic; On With Lunacy. I voted for them the only opportunity I had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazza Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 I'm not sure they'd let me in. I would link to the parties policies but as this is a family forum. I'll let you google it.

Cancer Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 It would rapidly lead to renaming it the Old Pervert Party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
