Title: Will you be voting for Kang or Kodos?
Post by: Mahsa Tezani on September 18, 2011, 01:44:17 AM
I've decided to vote for Kodos over Kang because Kodos promises Freedom and wealth as opposed to Kang promising wealth and freedom.

I am serious. Kodo's promise of freedom and wealth will lead to a better nation.

What do you think?

Well, I for one am voting for Kang. Kang stands taller than Kudos, is younger, and a better orator. Kang, I feel, understands the problems of the everyman. When Kang speaks, I believe he understands my problems. Kang is also much cuter/more handsome than his elder statesman Kudos.

Which party is Kang with again??

I'm supporting Nobody.  Because Nobody is going to solve all of our problems for us.  We either solve them together, or they don't get solved at all.

Nobody in the 2012 campaign will be the leader we need to unify us in pursuit of the best America can do.


Nobody for President believes that a few simple principles will inspire Americans to vote with their hearts and minds in the 2012 Campaign:

Nobody for President believes in integrity first.

Nobody for President delivers truth, not fantasy, in telling it like it is to the American people.

Nobody for President believes that United is as important as the States of America.

Nobody for President is committed to reducing inequality among the citizens of this great country.

Nobody for President believes strongly that, if given the truth about any situation, the American people have the intelligence and heart to do the right thing, even if it means going in a different direction.

It's a two party system. *Ross Perot punches hand through hat*

He was! I saw him duck down an ally on 3rd and Kensington being chased by angry Weasels because he was  Pro Weasel Stomping Day.

I'd vote to re-elect President Obama if I was a citizen of the U.S.

He's a moderate with a very even temperament and, whilst I don't believe in telling others what's good for them, I believe he's the right man for the time.

I know there's a lot of political baggage associated with his health care reforms but to be honest I'm amazed that he made as many positive changes to healthcare as he has.

I believe he is the right person for the job and I unequivocally endorse him.

Yeah, I'll be voting for him too, but to be honest I'm a bit disappointed with him. He proves too willing to compromise, leaving the stimulus, healthcare reform, and the latest debt ceiling deal, horribly watered down and ineffective. He feels as though compromise will work with the republicans in Congress when they have made it all too clear their sole aim is to ensure he's a one term president (so to hell with jobs, the economy, or our credit rating; the President must go). In my opinion, he's too centrist-right. However, I have to agree with him when he says "we shouldn't let the good be the enemy of the perfect" and feel he's much more qualified than the republican alternatives of Gov. Jesus McBangbang, Rep Historically challenged teaparty darling, or Gov. Flip-flop.

I would also like to state, that I read an article (its 7 am and I've been up all night studying, so if needed I'll find it later) where a republican strategist called the current party a death cult opining that their aim is to make Obama look ineffective to increase the resonance of their message that government is ineffective (increasing teaparty turnout and demoralizing Obama turnout). So while I'm not entirely happy with Obama, I don't endorse sitting at home come election day as that is their goal and we end up stuck with a tea-bagging lunatic. (Again not that Obama is perfect, but compared to those bleach-drinking luddites, I'm glad to have someone who can read and whose foreign policy isn't "Yee-haw")

To be sure Obama is pretty much the old-style Eisenhower type Republican, and the Republicans are crazy.  That does not leave a lot of choices.

This thread was intended to be a political parody, as I don't vote or care about politics.

You don't need to parody something that's already a joke.
