Oh, Earl’s freaking DEAD

If he’s dead..he’s voting democrat this year…

It’s sad how many people vote based soley upon ’What am I gonna get out of this?"

Not what’s best for the country, what’s best for them and them alone. That’s sad.

Earl’s right – it’s all about the money. Here in Connecticut, we’ve got Linda McMahon (former CEO of WWE rasslin’) running for senate. In the last 3 years, she’s spent $77 MILLION (as of the end of Sept.) of her own cash to buy – I mean, win – a seat in Congress. Never held elected office, no experience or knowledge, but she can spend, spend, spend (and throw mud like a pig). She’s just a spoiled 3 year old – “I wanna be in Congress!” and has a ton of cash to buy whatever she wants – maybe even Earl.

That just might work. I have two signs on my front door; one saying that I voted early and if you ring my doorbell for some electioneering you’ll regret it, and the other says (in German fraktur script):Mit Romney?Nein!Ohne Romney!.

OrionHow sad….but you are right. It’s like no one cares about God or country anymore. I am voting forsome one who cares about God and our country and Us-I am proud to be an American and always willbe. I want a president who is too.

I assume they live in Ohio.

Is Earl Danae’s grandfather?

Orion, your right. So many old face will still be there with the same old agendas.

I guess we are all special interest people

I hope he doesn’t mind a box full of empty promisory notes written on red ballots.

I’ll Give Earl an “A” for honesty… no Super PACs in the background.

Hey, turnabout’s fair play. Given that contributions to a Congresswhore’s campaign fund are his or hers to keep on retirement, why shouldn’t Earl do the same?

So, it’s ok to spend 10s of millions of other peoples’ money (via donations) but not ok to spend your own money? That is very odd.

@poppy1313You’re absolutely right. Every one of us is a member of at least three special interest groups: our age group, our gender preference, and our employment status. Most of us are also members of several more as well.

Republicans are a lot like Freddy and Jason – when you think they’re down, they get up and keep coming after you. When you think the tombstone had been set in place, someone resurrects the monster for another cheesy sequel.

could never afford to be a republican……

I have to give old Earl credit for enterprise. In this economy, anyway you can supplement your meager S.S. pension is a plus. Considering the number of wackadoodles running for various offices, Earl might make a tidy profit.

The good news is: All the TROLLS finally have a legitimate excuse to comment in a political theme. Go for it!

Earl, get in line beind the corporations. Your a bit late to the party and not as much of a “person” as they are.

“…throw mud like a pig…”

Or throw… something else… like a monkey.

he is right everyone else does it as groups. But remember you are allowed to turn in a blank ballot . you do not have to vote for every thing on the ballot just vote I favor not party but remember republicans vote on tuesday demo on wendnesday

A few elections back a guy offered to sell his vote on ebay. It was a joke, of course, that’s illegal, but he got a lot of publicity.

You might be interested in the following quotation from Will and Ariel Durant: “We must remind ourselves that nearly all democracies are oligarchies; minorities can be organized for action and power, majorities cannot.”

In our case, the oligarchy is the Republicrat establishment, with two factions which differ only in which selected Paul gets the goodies from robbing collective Peter. Neither faction wants the question of whether this is what government is for discussed, and since they control the educational system and the media they can have the issue suppressed. And since they have also eliminated the independence of the judiciary, the constitutionality of what they do never gets dealt with either.

Voting has become quite an experience….even if the common man votes using common sense…the man who wins may be the man who can supply enough oil to keep the voting “machines” running…that are pre programmed to see only his name when the other guys name is entered and all the while convince himself that somehow what this machine does is completly leagal….and it is ….until he gets caught!

the problem is:when they buy your vote, they pay for it with your money.

And then the country becomes almost totally ruined over the next 2 years and the Republicans win crushing victories in 2014 and 2016.

People should vote for CONTITUANAL PARTY CANIDATE FOR PRESIDENT VIRGEL GOODE FROM VA. . He wants to get this country back to the way it used to be, cut unnneccssry spending @help amercia more than.

More like suppressing fire.

Earl has the right idea. If he is the Undecided Voter – pay him to swing the count. He gets paid.If by only one contender…. he knows which will bend or break the rules. If by both….. sorry America…. you are SOL.

Quid Pro Quo for president!

Now THAT’S the way to get candidates to win votes!

thank dog for permanent absentee voting in California

hubby and I voted 2 weeks ago and I shut the TeeVee off right after Daily Show/Colbert……..

night night………sunday/monday night FB and another 4 years for POTUS

In 1940, when my dad first courted my mom he wisely decided not to declare a political side but to ask his soon to be father-in-law what he thought of politics.Grandpa George thought about it for a minute then said“Son, if your a poor man you best vote democrat as they take care to treat folks as they’d like to be treated themselves. However if you ever do become a rich man you’d best vote republican since you’ve already proved treatin’ Other folks as you want to be treated isn’t a part of your way of thinkin’.”

“The four square feet of the voting booth is the most valuable piece of real estate in the world and if we ever sell it to anyone we are going to be in real trouble.

Honestly, how many of you think it doesn’t matter anymore? That the system has become too corrupt? That the only solution is wholesale revolution? And that will never happen because the majority are simply too complacent?

How can we have Plutocrats when Pluto’s been demoted from planet status?

One might want to look up the Mormon position on black people.,If you like BIGOTRY. But mormon an moron are one a single letter apart.

If a few of you who know so much were just involved in a campaign…not just doorknocking and phoning but maybe a bit farther up the food chain…you actually might KNOW something.

I wouldn’t tell any of you how to feed a hog or tighten a bolt or whatever it is you do when your masters allow you to work. I know a bit more about this power game than many of you seem to.

That said…and if my comment bites, you just woke up a little bit…some of what you say is partially true. I know which part is true, and I know far more about the American process than evidently readers of my favorite strip do…

If you’re worried about your retirement, you’d better vote Democrat. You won’t have anything left if you vote for a mook like Rmoney.
