The zombie swing vote

Postby Joe Ghoul » Tue Nov 02, 2004 2:51 am

I copied this headline directly from the Drudgereport.

Every vote is vital in today’s cliff-hanger American election – including those of the dead...


Damn, man. Somebody remind me which amendment gave the undead the right to vote?

I dunno, but don't you think they deserve it after all the shambles they held amidst the police dog attacks and being sprayed with fire hoses?
The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices, to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all its own...

If the dead can vote, they ain't dead. Therefore, I ain't shooting them.
See you around, HK.

In Missouri we vote for the dead. We even elect them.

I wish Kyle was lying. I hate this fucking state. Of affairs.

Wasn't it Missouri who elected the dead guy 4 years ago (plane crash) and his wife filled in for him after the challenger gracefully backed out?...I may be thinking of a different state-enlighten me.

Nope. That'd be right.

The challenger didn't back out. There was a heated election. I really felt the party should have picked another candidate that was more up to the job but it turned out OK. It was a little embarassing.

What race was that? ...and how did it go this year?

That was the senator race in 2000. There were no dead people running this year, thankfully.

Why do you think the bulk of ZS is stationed in Missouri? We're keeping in eye out for non-stationary cadavers who are being covered up as politicans.

Yesterday I had the urge to grab a whole of those I VOTED stickers and put them on the grave stone on Church and Richardson road. I'm sure a couple of them did.
