I voted democrat because I hate the military and everything it stands for.

I voted democrat because my balls are in a jar on a shelf next to an issue of "O" Magazine and "A Guide to Feminist Rationale for the 21st Century"
I voted Democrat because I would rather live in Mexico, but I can't survive there, so I am moving Mexico a few degrees north.
I voted democrat because voting for Independent and Non-partisan candidates is way too sensible.
I voted Democrat because I want somebody to save me, because my lazy ass likes welfare!
I voted Democrat because some dude picked me up off the street corner paid me $100 and slipped a joint in my pocket as I was leaving the polling booth-just for voting democrat.
I voted democrat because I could give a crap less about what happens to this country, as long as I get my handout now. My kids will vote themselves a handout too, so I am not concerned about them either!

Props Cooner, this has been a great therapy session~ you should get licensed, you could charge people for this!

Wholly smokes cooner. I had to read this twice. You scared the heck out of me.

I voted Democrat because Obama is a bought and sold polititian from the cradle of political corruption, Chicago.

Well put, all! I didn't vote democrat but qualify that by saying that I saw McCain as the lesser of two evils. I would have much rather seen Huckabee or Romney AND Sarah Palin. Sadly, if Obama and McCain are the best we can do, we are in deep you-know-what. Keep 2012 in your prayers.

I voted democrat because the American media is 95% liberal and can never provide me factual information, they just want to puke up their liberal crap all over me, all the time. I never even get the opportunity to hear both sides unless I buy cable and look for the limited few conservative stations out there. How dare one of the major media companies try to appeal to both sides? No, let's just let Dave Letterman run his mouth like a goon and allow NBC to slight the republican party in any way possible. I can hardly turn on the TV anymore because I don't want to hear that junk. It's a shame.

well i cant vote, but i wouldnt vote democrat.

Those are some very compelling reasons cooner. Way to go!

No one could have said it better! Terrific posting.

Chuckles, you are right, up to a point, but Obama and his minions in congress are a threat to hunting, the 2nd amenedment, proper environmental management, and all those other things that we hold near and dear so that make him relevant in this forum. I'd much rather discuss fly rods, flintlocks, and handguns but sometimes you can't ignore, what is the saying, the 800# gorilla in the room.

If memory serves, wasn't Clinton quoted as "detesting the military"?

I voted Democtrat because that's what CNN and my local newspapers told me i should do. Surely they know best! Right! ...And because i'm a SUCKER for decent marketing and a good photo-op.

And Mr. Clinton and Mr. Obama's sterling military records are....?

We won't even discuss Sen. Kerry's lying a$$.

Neither "party" is much account. Correct.

im not of age but i plan to vote democrate, everyone who owns done is going to kill someone, not drug dealers though were too tough on them its not like they cost lives, we dont need guns we have plenty of police you can dodge bullets for the 5 or 6 minutes it takes them to responde, we dont have the right to defend ourselves. as you can tell im thinking like obama. he doesnt protect himself, we pay for people to protect him, he doesnt need a gun because everyone around him has one. once he gets rid of the guns that protect him i will agree to get rid of mine. 2012 republicans are getting my vote

When my son started to talk to me about political parties we discussed what he felt was important to him and we came up with the following thoughts "who will allow me to lead my life as I want, allow me to keep the money I earn, not burden me with endless regulations, respect life, keep taxes as low as possible, protect my family from foreign threat and allow this country to prosper and keep faith with the Constitution of the United States of America. I never tried to lead him by the nose or offer any suggestions. After he had told me what he felt was important I knew where he would wind up. He is a conservative. Bear in mind that conservative doesn't mean republican necessarily, but obviously closer in philosophy than the democrat party. As for the rich thing, I'm a carpenter and have no excess money, but thanks to my conservative allies in this country I've been able to pretty much do as I please. You don't have you job and the live you obviously care about today because of the way you vote, but because of the way I've voted.

I certainly agree with you about McCain. He is a RINO in every sense of the word. I can't remember the exact amount but his voting record for the past few years was very liberal. I thought that Mitt Romneys business record was outstanding. The only life that McCain had was when he put Sarah Palin on the ticket.

so Jbird hes done good? what have the bailouts done? all the economy needed was time. a good bailout would be giving those billions of dollars we apparently had sitting around back to tax payers. what would you do with the money? spend it right? things that would boost the economy. why give it to the ceo's who apparntly cant run a company why let them ruin it all over again with our money?

haha im not sure who else this happened to but when i read "i voted democrat.." i concluded right there you were an idiot and stopped reading the rest but i wanted to see peoples comments and when i saw they were sarcastic i read the post. so sorry for thinking you were an idiot. funny post i love peoples reactions to things like this

Don't forget Affirmative action. I voted Democrate because he's black. He's the underdog. Sounds like a good reason to vote for someone to me?

I voted democrat so I can sit on my lazy ass and have somebody else pay my mortgage.

I vote Democrat because I'm working class. I'm a member of a Union, which invented the 'middle-class', and John McCain HATES unions. I look at voting records for candidates, and vote for who supports issues that puts food on my children's plates. I'm not fooled by Republican's "religous/conservative" bs. They are for the rich and powerful, period. I realize that the Republicans could have easily banned abortion in the first 6 years of W's presidency, since they had Congress, the White House, and the Supreme Court, but they will never do it because it's a great devisive issue to draw the sheep to them. I hunt and fish religously. I still have ALL my guns, and most importantly, I still have a JOB. I never had a single assault weapon confiscated from me in Clinton's presidency either. I think both parties are full of liars and crooks. Congratulations to all of you for being wealthy, but most American's are not, and if you look at the Republican's voting records, you'll see who their really looking out for. Now go ahead and throw your -'s on my comment.

Mr. Petzal once wrote an article outlining the dilemma about which party one chooses to vote for and it was pretty insightful. Basically, he said that neither was much account. I voted Democrat because they don't frighten me the way the Republicans do. If you think Republicans give a hoot about anything besides money and power then you are a dreamer of the first magnitude. All I have to see is Cheney's and George W's military record (Viet Nam era no-show's).
Other than real battle, the R's are ruthless.
