Voters Must Have Courage To Take A Stand: By M. Bayon

The following commentary was submitted by esteemed political commentator Mao Bayon. Mr. Bayon has been published quarterly in The Economist, and is often featured in the Calle Hora, the Colombian equivalent of The Wall Street Journal.

With our country in the shape that it is in today, I feel the need to say a few words regarding the importance of this election. As a political commentator and a politically active American citizen, I have followed this election from the very beginning. I feel that, although so much is at stake here, voters are not willing to take their responsibilities seriously.

I could be completely wrong in my presumptions, but my gut tells me that I must speak out. I am constantly hearing naive voters make whiny, ignorant comments like “What are we voting for?” or “I don’t completely understand.” or my personal favorite “What are they running for?” Hearing comments like these makes my Latino blood boil. I just want to go ‘School Ties’ on their ass and, like Brandon Fraser, yell “COWARDS!!!!” on the top of my lungs.

This is the exact same attitude that allowed George W. Bush to run our country into the ground for eight straight years.

Bayon beleives these two people are cowards.

These voters are taking the ‘head in the sand’ approach and just assuming that everything will turn out alright.

Well that’s not how it works in the real world!!! It’s time for the voters to stop being ignorant and start getting involved. TAKE A STAND ON JUNE 13TH! But remember that a lot is at stake here and this is NOT a popularity contest.

Adios mis amigos.

Craig, I hope you are able to read this. Back in High School I used to have a huge crush on you. I remember those days in Senior Year when we used to have sleepovers. My parents still ask about you. Have you been to any hair concerts lately. I am involved in the ROTC and am involved in the Army. I do think there was always a little something between us. I finally am able to express my feelings. I don't know if you ever felt anything like that.
I am so glad that I was forwarded this email. Craig, or should I say MOSS like old times. I am hoping that we could reconnect. Good Luck.

And could you give me back my second ball please. Having just one nut makes me feel lopsided.

Paul,

Your triceps look AMAZING.

Call me. We can grab some fat free yogurt (or we can make some of own :> ) and catch up.
