So its that time of year again when the congressional elections are being held. Regardless of how you feel about the choice of candidates, you all need to vote. Not only is it your right to do so, but it is also your responsability. Now is not the time to be apathetic because we are at a critical point in our history. The political climate is a' changin,' folks, and just think, even if the next president we elect is wonderful, what good would that be if our congress and individual states are corrupt and inept? We need to send a clear message that we are ready for a change and that the corruption has to end. To quote Dr. Thompson, "If we are asleep at the wheel, the city, state, and national governments are driving out of control." We have a responsability to ourselves, and to our own future to be aware of what is going on within our government(s) in order to make informed decisions about what direction our states and country are going in! One stop voting is under way right now if you choose to vote early (reccomended!), otherwise the elections are being held 10 days from now. GO VOTE!
Alrighty then. I will get off my soapbox now.
