Vote! And Have Cell Phone Fun in line

I just returned from voting here in Dumbutt, Texas. Outside the elementary school the biggest change I noticed from last election was that the word "Republican" was missing from all the political signs.

I had quite a bit of fun in line. Of course this kind of fun may not work where regular humans go vote. Here in Dumbutt not even a button is allowed so I found another option in getting my political views out.

As soon as I got in line, which was outside, I turned my cell phone off and put it to my ear. I did not shout but I tried to make sure I was heard by at least five people deep in both directions.

Damn right I am voting for Obama, I don’t live in your trailer park anymore!

McCain? You have to be kidding, I got out of the 9th grade you know.

The line isn’t too bad, very McCain/Palin oriented so I assume everyone here makes over $250,000 a year!

Hahahaha… Yeah, like anyone in their right mind would vote for a Republican this time round!

As you have heard me say a thousand times, I have to give George Bush one thing, he is at least smarter than anyone who voted for him.

My fellow voters around me who were all Republicans – we don’t call it Dumbutt for nothing – suffered through my zingers until that last one. Calling them dumber than George W went beyond the voting line pale I guess.

And you know what everyone of them who felt they had to speak up were mostly concerned with? Why they were voting straight Republican tickets?  Because Barack Obama and Democrats will redistribute the wealth. They will take it from those who make over $250,000 a year and hand it out to  lazy bums who refuse to work for a living. Everyone of them, the same issue, they work hard and will not allow the liberal government to take their money and give it to lazy welfare bums who do not want to work.

My response was to hold the phone up in the air and direct it around as a microphone and say "Listen to this! Hard to believe hey?"  One young lady got especially hot and I had to address her directly, "Ya know I been around a long time and I have never met anyone who did not want to work nor do I know anyone who makes a quarter of a million dollars a year. Too much Limbaugh and Hannity I suspect?"

She turned purple and began drooling as she told me she listened to both Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity all day everyday. I tried to think of something to say to cool her off and lucked into the right response.

"You going to Hannity’s Freedom Concert?  Did you get one of those special Christmas Freedom Packages?" That did it! She was telling the whole line of people all about it. How it was packed with stars like Lee Greenwood, Billy Ray, Charlie Daniels and perhaps appearances by Joe the Plumber and Sarah Palin! She was gushing, she was happy, all her angst had dissipated and she began joking around with me. All was well…

So don’t forget your cell phone, use it to have some fun voting.
