Political Bullet Points

I didn't watch the debate last night for reasons mentioned in a previous post (summary: It's all BS). Nonetheless, I'll give my two cents since everyone else is a political analyst all of a sudden.

• I'm voting for Barack Obama


• I don't think that it is the mission of the Republican Party to destroy black people


• I don't think that Mitt Romney is the devil


• Obama's re-election will not herald the return of Jesus the Christ


• Mitt Romney's election will not end all life as we know it


• There are three branches of government


• A Republican congress, republican president and two new conservative Supreme Court justices will not be the tipping point to drive you to move to Canada


• Canada doesn't just let people move in. Can you even find a company to sponsor you for a work visa?


• Before we talk about abortion and what a woman can do with her body, can we talk about what she can do with her mind? My First Lady has a juris doctor from Harvard and executive management experience yet she has been relegated to talking about school lunches and exercise.


• Abortion, Gun Control, Gay Rights and Unemployment have been discussed already. Would anyone like to talk about education reform or the criminal justice system?


• School loan debt does suck, but how many jobs did you see on Career Day that convinced you to that majoring in Ancient Sumerian Cartoon Drawing was a good idea?


• School loan debt sucks


• School loan debt sucks enough to say it thrice


• Shhh! Sometimes I see both parties' points of view


• I think some people should pay more taxes.


• I also think some people need to get off welfare.


• I would've starved to death in '04 if not for food stamps.


• I know plenty of people who carefully choose which check stub to submit to illegally qualify for food stamps, subsidized daycare and reduced utilities.


• My favorite fruit as a kid was the "welfare" applesauce that came in a white can with black lettering and the big USDA shield.


• I can think of three of you who read my site faithfully that are planning to claim your cousin's kid on your taxes and split the money with them.


• No, I didn't go off on a tangent. I gave personal examples of people who need social safety nets (Democrat) and people who abuse them (Republican). And boom goes the dynamite!


• That's a dated reference


• I saw a Fedex truck delivering to the UPS store today.


• Now that was a tangent
