Homer's Vote

Last nights Halloween Simpson's was very good, however I had one problem.
Homer: "Ooooo.. one of those electric voting dealies... Hehehe (presses button for Obama)
Voting Machine: "One vote, for McCain. Thank you."
Homer: "Nooo, I want to vote for Obama (presses Obama's name again)."
Voting Machine: "Two votes, for McCain."
Homer: "Huh?! Come on, it's time for a change! (presses Obama's name again)"
Voting Machine: "Three votes, for McCain."
Homer: "No! No! No! (presses button 3 more times)
Voting Machine: "Six votes, for President McCain."
Homer: "Heyyy.. I only meant one of those votes for McCain! (gasps) Hey, this machine is rigged!"
(machine doors open, tries to suck Homer inside)
Homer: "Must.... tell... President....... McCain.................AHhhhh! This doesn't happen in America! Maybe Ohio, but not America!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"


It's true but in sadly in revise. Obama is quite literally buying an election with illegal money from who knows were. All the while the press and big government politicians are cheering him on.
It is amazing how much money you can get from the internet if you disable all the security safeguards and don't check who is actually give you that money. Who cares about pesky campaign finance laws.
The whole Diebolt Electronic Voting thing is bad, and should not be brushed aside as some "Republican" or right wing thing. It is a power thing. It moves us one more step away from "Citizen Control of the Government" and towards "Those in power choose how We the People can do things"
Sadly democracy is dieing because of it.
I don't want to live in a country that pits class against class. Poor vs Rich or Washington Power vs Individual Right. We are Americans Damn it. We have no class.
