That thing called 'Politics'

* news and politics , random @ 21:03

It's taboo to bring up politics in my household. The parents and one brother lean one way, and my younger brother and I lean the other way. And as viewpoints go, we all think we're right. I guess that's what happens when you grow up in a family with very, very stubborn genetics.

By Tuesday night the election will be over, and saying that I will be overjoyed is an overstatement. Almost every phone call home has some subtle comment from the parent about my affiliation. How could I vote for that person? Why did S. vote for X? Are we nuts? Did we know that X supports murdering children?

Oh my goodness I had no clue that murdering living, breathing children was legal in the United States of America. Then again illegal wiretapping is legal now as well as the temporary cancellation of habeas corpus for would be terrorists who may or may not be Americans.

Hmm.

I haven't decided who to vote for yet. I'm more worried about being able to vote than actually having to make that choice. I don't want a repeat of last time.
