Guys this is something I found at a website and thought it was humorous enough to share!!
Either the drinking age needs to be lowered to 18 or the voting age needs to
be upped to 21. I don't care how it happens, but after choosing between the
candidates we have, the country needs a good strong drink.
I think that getting people registered to vote is an important thing, but I
can't help laughing at MTV and the WWF being the main two groups targeting my
age group. No one knows more about what reforms the American government needs
than Outkast and The Rock. (Note: Minnesota is the exception to this joke).
I keep seeing all these ads about how every candidate is lying, and that's
why you shouldn't vote for them. Hell, being a good liar makes a great
candidate. You want a boyscout running your country? "Hello, Saddam? Yes, I
just wanted to let you know that we were sending some of our boys over your
border to try to destroy your weapons. Hope they're not too much trouble."
Someone said that no one should vote for Bush because he'll run the United
States like he ran the Texas Rangers. Apparently, he's planning on having the
country finish in third place a few times and then selling us for a 10%
profit.
A political candidate is like the junk you fill your dorm room with freshman
year. Yeah, it makes sense now, but in four years, you're going to look back
and wonder why you bought any of it.
Personally, I'm choosing Gore over Bush. Though when it comes to renting
movies, I'm usually the other way around.
Bush thinks that he can get the college vote because he was a fraternity guy.
Think of your friend who always stumbles into his room at 5:00 AM, throws up
on the floor, sleeps in it, and then asks you why he's so tired the next day.
Now imagine everyone calling him Mr. President.
Sometimes we forget that presidents went to college, just like the rest of
us. In their first year, they made some mistakes and had to rely on their
friends to fix everything up. By the second or third year, they got a hang of
things, but halfway through the fourth, they realize that it'll all be over
soon and they'll need a job. Sometimes they find one, but sometimes they just
decide to stay where they were another few years. And college was tough, too.
When a political candidate comes to my campus, I don't want him to tell me
how "hip" or "cool" he is, and how he can "get down with" my problems if I am
willing to "rap" with him. I want him to admit he's an out of touch old guy
that hasn't been in college in 40 years, but he'll still be willing to bomb
the hell out of anyone that messes with us.
Now that's funny...Starr xoxoxo
