Black Friday

NEW YORK -Nov. 28) - A Wal-Mart worker was killed Friday after an "out of control" throng of shoppers eager for post-Thanksgiving bargains broke down the doors at a suburban store and knocked him to the ground, police said.




Within hours of the trampling death, customers had lined up behind crime scene tape waiting for the retailer to reopen.

Let me say that again ... waiting for the retailer to reopen.

Never let it be said that Americans have fucked up priorities.

History

Always remember where you were at 11pm on November 4th, 2008.

I couldn't believe it, but I had tears in my eyes.

Pathetic

In the days leading up to the election today, several phony fliers and text messages have been circulated in an effort to stop Democratic voters in key battleground states from coming out to the voting stations.

One targeted black voters, warning them of possible arrest.




Another bogus flier appeared in Franklin County, Ohio.





In Virginia, a phony State Board of Elections flier advising Republicans to vote on Nov. 4 and Democrats on Nov. 5 was being circulated in several Hampton Roads localities, according to state elections officials.




State elections officials have apparently identified the people responsible, but have refused to release their names and no charges will be filed.

When asked about this, a representative from the McCain camp suggested that "anyone naive enough to be fooled by these tricks should perhaps not be allowed to vote in this election".

That is a very good point.

Perhaps naive people should be disqualified from many different things.

VOTE ... If only for the free stuff.

Even if you think your vote won't decide the election, go out and vote for the free stuff.
