Imagine my chagrin as I realize, I can't vote in the coming election. Why?, you ask? Because I'm a dumbass. I registered, voted in the primaries, and thought, 'cool, everything's cool, ready for the real thing in November...' . Wrong. Two months ago, when I decided to go back to trucking, I should have remembered that Truck drivers, since there is no way to guarantee that we will be home on election day, have to register for absentee voting. Did I remember this? No. I didn't. I remembered today. Then I go online to find out about registering for absentee ballot, and the deadline was on Oct 4. Dammit. Dammit. Dammit. The one vote I really care about, and because of my own stupidity, I can't cast my ballot. I am so upset I could spit. I can only sit back and hope like crazy that Obama gets voted in. McCain is the devil!! Palin is his retarded sidekick. I went to HRC.org and took a gander at their scorecard for this session of congress... Obama may have only got a 95%, but McCain got a 0 (zero)!!!!!! Even Madame Clinton got a 95%. I was on the fence between Obama and Clinton... wouldn't have minded if they'd paired up. Here's something that really pissed me off, I was at a truck stop, and on the stall wall someone had written this little gem... "CHANGE = Come Help A Nigga Get Elected" How stupid can people get? There's this whole thing going around about McCain race-baiting, and people come up with this stuff? What I can't figure out is, what camp is this remark supposed to support? Is it some black person writing this because he is voting for Obama simply because Obama is black? or is it some McCain supporter slandering Obama because he is black? Well I have news for both of them; Obama is Not A Nigger!! A Nigger is someone who doesn't have the self-respect to better themselves. There is a HUGE difference between someone who is black, and someone who is a Nigger. Don't get me wrong, I am not racist. I am an equal opportunity person; if you respect yourself enough to be clean, speak clearly, dress appropriately, and treat others with respect, then I will treat you with the respect that you deserve. My discrimination does not extend to races, only to the way that you present yourself. Between blacks and niggers, whites and white trash, latinos and wetbacks, there is a world of difference.
