I thought I would talk a little bit about the upcoming election since goddamn MTV feels the need to go to great lengths about it.

I can’t tell you how annoying it is to see endless parades of tv and movie stars telling me I need to go vote. Hell, even goddamn PUFF DADDY is letting me know that I better go plunk down my vote for somebody, by god.

Last night on “The Daily Show”, Jack Black, whom I respect and admire greatly, went on and on (as he does) about how if you don’t already know who you’re voting for, you’re an idiot. And I tend to agree.

However, I also want to take this opportunity to tell you not to vote. Fuck em! Since the candidates are exactly the same, the parties are exactly the same, and governemental policies won’t change in any spectacular way based on who wins, what’s the point?

Now, let me quantify that: Bush is an idiot. He’s really… and I can’t stress this enough… really really stupid. He may not be a bad guy, He may be fun at parties, he may even have a kind of lovable quirky annoying-sidekick-pet kind of thing going on, but really, he’s not smart enough to be president. He’s just not. He lacks the intellegence needed to deal with that kind of job.

Does that mean I support Kerry? Of course not. It just means I DONT support bush! Unfortunately, Kerry is our only other option, since all the good candidates didn’t get the support of enough special interest groups and corporations to continue compaigning.

Kerry is smarter than Bush, that is true. But then, so is soap. And concrete. And many types of trees. Kerry brings the same kind of two-faced popularity that Clinton had, except without any of the smoothness that Clinton had to make it work.

Also: I hate his wife.

But thats not the point. The point is, there’s no reason to vote since it won’t matter either way. So fuck pop stars, fuck mtv, fuck movie stars, and especially fuck Puff fuckin’ Daddy.

And while im on the subject, let me go a step further. Im not convenced votes are even tallied anymore, if they ever were. Who’s to say our paper-based opinions aren’t just sent directly to the incinerator from the voting booth?

Bah. Better to just keep your head down and try to make your way to Canada.
