Get out and Vote
Today will be election day for the United States. Across the Nation the people will have their one chance to voice their opinions regarding who will or will not be held in office. A lot of people around here watch the football games with fever. I will actually be watching the news tonight to see what occurs.
Oklahoma will have the following on their ballot. Personally, I will be voting on both sides of the fence, both Democrat and Republican. As a registered Independent, this is the only one (other than the main Presidential votes) that I will be able to attend at the polls.
Governor
Brad Henry (D)
Ernest Istook (R)
Lietutenant Governor
Jari Askins (D)
Todd Hiett ( R)
E.Z. Million (I)
State Auditor
Jeff A. McMahan (D)

Corporation Commissioner
Cody Graves (D)
Bob Anthony (R )
District 2
Dan Boren (D )
Patrick K Miller (R )
District Judge Office one
Danita S. Williams
Mariaon Daly Fry
State Senator No 4
Kenneth Corn (D )
Thomas E. Lannigain (R )
There are also 4 state questions and one proposition.
The proposition asks if a 50 cent tax can be placed on cell phone usage. I don’t see that passing.
These and 12 Judges up for election should make for more than a few to come out to vote in Oklahoma.

I woke up to see the House is now in the hands of the Demo's.
There's still a shot for either party to own the Senate.
Well, the people have spoken. They are tired of the same o' same o'.
Perhaps now, one party will have a little more humility and the other one won't screw us over with taxes.

1. The Democrats are not necessarily "tax and spend," because
a. when the Dems were in power in the '90s, they (very secretly) cut a lot of social programs and international aid, and also managed to balance the budget, and
b. the Dems cut taxes in the '90s, which goes against Keynesian economics; the GOP was stupid enough to make even more cuts, and look how much the Iraq war is costing, and really, who the fuck is going to pay for that? That would be YOU, good buddy, and
c. US residents pay SO FUCKING LITTLE in taxes it makes me want to puke. You think you have high taxes? Try going, um, anywhere else in the industrialized world.
2. Do you really think the Republican party is capable of humility? I'll believe it when I see it.
