Thoughts On Democracy

While I'm not eligible to vote in the US as I merely pay whopping huge taxes here but don't have citizenship, I spend my extra time nagging others to do so. If you're eligible to vote today and haven't yet done so, consider yourself nagged.

*Insert obligatory, repetitive and well-rehearsed sermon on the civic duty here.*

[livejournal.com profile] cuyahogarvr standing in line to vote without several cups of coffee first thing in the morning is the greatest threat to democracy this or any other nation has ever faced.

[livejournal.com profile] kent4str has a nasty kennel cough. I hinted he should just cough in the direction of McCain/Palin supporters but I don't think he heard me as he was busy hacking up a lung at the time.

Democracy can be a very fragile thing.
