vote is a joke

There is a web site set up, which I am sure most of you know about, that encourages voters to vote for certain singers, (the worst) Sanjaya happening to be the one the last couple weeks. I know the same thing pretty much happened with a couple of singers last year, they were mentioned on the web site and for several weeks, although they were terrible, they were not even in the bottom 3.

I don't see any MEN I would vote for - sm
look at the mess they've made of this country. I think it's time for a change, before English becomes a 2nd language in the US, before ALL our jobs end up in the Third World, and before we go to war with yet ANOTHER country for no particular reason, while still another devastating terrorist attack will be launched in the US (I say WILL, not MIGHT, especially if we end up with another loser like Dubya in office...) The men don't seem to be able to keep their pants on, either. And trying to do so seems to cloud their thinking process.
Nope, it's definite time for a woman's touch when it comes to representing this country.
I vote for #2.
I have a 5 yo and a 23 mo, both girls. I just spent 100 on clothes for the 5 yo alone for back to school. I did not buy anything for my 23 MO because she has tons of her big sisters hand-me-downs. I wonder though how this is going to affect her when she gets more aware of things.
UGG. The joys of raising kids who think money grows on trees. LOL.
I vote to let him go....sm
I would say let him go....What a special opportunity that most kids never get. If YOUR vote ends up to be no, would it be possible in any way for you and/or your husband to tag along so that he could go and you just be there for your peace of mind and the 'in case' situations? Another thought....so much changes in a year....I am not sure I would stress about it yet - until you need to. Good luck!
Thanks! I did vote for Kim. (sm)
She's my favorite. I haven't seen the final show yet, but I'm sure it taped for me.
I vote for gma!!!! :-) nm

My vote is...
for a Bassett Hound, but they do need exercise (all dogs do, I guess, according to the Dog Whisperer).
I second this vote! s/m
I have had two Boston's over the past 12 years and they are wonderful! You do have to be careful of their eyes because they are easily scratched, but other than that, are very protective, very cuddly and just plain adorable!
it's a joke . . .

It's not a joke.
Warning....!!!!
Just last weekend on Friday night we parked in a public parking area. As we drove away I noticed a sticker on the rear window of the car. When I took it off after I got home, it was a receipt for gas. Luckily my friend told me not to stop as it could be someone waiting for me to get out of the car. Then we received this email yesterday:
'WARNING FROM POLICE - BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE--NEW WAY TO DO CARJACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)'
Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating... You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside. You start the engine and shift into Reverse. When you look into the rearview mirror to back out of your parking space, you notice a piece of paper stuck to the m iddle of the rear window. So, you shift into Park, unlock your doors, and jump out of your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view. When you reach the back of your car, that is when the carjackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off. They practically mow you down as they speed off in your car. And guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in the car. So now the carjacker has your car, your home address, your money, and your keys. Your home and your whole identity are now compromised!
BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED.
If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window, just drive away. Remove the paper later. And be thankful that you read this e-mail. I hope you will forward this to friends and family, especially to women. A purse contains all kinds of personal information and identification documents, and you certainly do NOT want this to fall into the wrong hands.
Please keep this going
Hopefully this is a joke...sm
You would think the wire/string would get caught in the lower eyelashes. If you watch the video, the model never moves her eyes side to side.
It was a joke. nm

No Joke
There was a couple on one of the talk shows that did it. In fact, the person who first started it was a minister. I think maybe he wrote a book about it? He's been on the talk show circuit as well. (This was a few months ago)
Yes, I know, it was a joke. But
I cannot miss to notice that in EVERY joke Mr. Tech Support posts the 'macho- man' comes through!
where is the joke?...........nm

I did not vote for ANYONE in this "regime," so my...
conscious is clear as far as that goes. Majority rules though, so the majority obviously likes being sheep is all I can figure.
I vote for Giacomo!

Zeus gets my vote! nn

i will only vote for a mother
think twice before sending our children to war. Don't forget, women are dying in war now and fighting. If a woman can get shot or blown up in Iraq, she sure can be President. I have decided to only vote for a woman that has had children, and preferably a person of color. I think men think too much with their testosterone and have brain poisoning from it. I will never vote for a man again.
I'd vote for Hayseed. Maybe she'd run? nm

You've got my vote!!!
I vote #2. See message.
I think an earlier post had the best answer:
"A 15yo and an 8yo should not be treated equally anyway. If the 15yo wants what the 8yo wants, tell him/her they can have the same bedtime, curfew, privileges etc. if they want everything to be fair."
You've got the vote and a whole
lot more - took this to my favorite forum where I can assure you there are a whole lot of passionate people when it comes to helping. - a heaping lot of them also happen to be from Georgia. Best of Luck to Sumter!
well with 50% vote fan-based,
lots can happen. But its still a great show with all the interest angles. I never did think she was the best talent myself. but what stunned me was the 'warmth' between her and her partner. It was really surprising to see such an open demonstration of affection in that setting...
I just submitted my vote!
I watched each of the three videos and I did vote for Kathryn. The others were more personal wishes and there is nothing wrong with that, but hers would benefit so many more people and it hits home with me as I have a son with Aspergar's, and he is very aware that he is treated differently and just wants to be like everyone else. The little guy thinks if he could retake the test where he was diagnosed with autism that he would be able to "pass" it now and would not be diagnosed with autism.
Good luck to Kathryn! I hope she wins 
Another vote sent out for Kathryn nm
!
I've been trying and trying to vote, but
this year it is nearly impossible to get through for me. This result was very, very wrong.
You win my vote!! What a visual LOL.(nm)

I'll vote for that!!

Let's vote a new holiday in ...
Just ONE day a year that we all are nice, friendly, nonjudgmental, noncritical, etc.

there are PLENTY of black republicans, Condeelza Rice, JC Watts, Michael Steele ETC ETC

EXCELLENT joke! *LOL*.........
 
This is a joke, right? Your son LIVES with her,
and you wonder about any of this? Give me a break! If the coach were God Himself, that would be no excuse to hand over your mothering duties and your son to someone else, let alone someone you think is a B. Give me a break. What is wrong with you?
Sanjaya is a JOKE. First of all,
he CANNOT SING; and if he thinks he can, he needs a reality check. He should have to sit and listen to himself like we all have to week after week. ICK.
It is just is not fair to the other contests to keep voting for him and losing better singers (not saying Brandon is great, but he is, was, much better than Sanny Boy.
If he wins this thing, which I doubt, it would be the END OF IDOL. I surely would not watch it ever again. This show is turning out to something other than a SINGING contest as Simon and the others have said over and over and over.
Why are there 3 judges anyway? AMERICA should not be allowed to vote, if this kind of c*** is going to continue. They need to put a stop to it. BUT they are raking in the ratings and the $$$$ so they probably really do not care.
NO! And, like he is better than Melinda? lol What a joke.
Poor Melinda, I seriously think she was in shock, like the rest of us.
Don't even know a joke when you hear one. Wow!
nm
Yeah, I know. It was just a joke.
See what I did there - I substituted nits for ticks.
:oD
I thought this was a joke when it first came on! LOL...nm

There is nothing on the news. Is this a bad joke?

Yes, it will be taxable. What a joke, huh????

perhaps she should offshore. joke, NM

Tell us where you work! Please! no joke.

Okay, this has got to be a joke to get us all going today
That is called trolling and/or spamming.
The first post from the OP sounds like a depressed person... who needs help. The second post from the OP sounds like a completely different person (different inflections etc) making up some sort of soap opera. So, if you are real, and yanking our chain, not funny. If you are real and both stories are true, call 911 or a counselor ASAP, or at the very least take a day off and you have our sympathies. Most of all if you are trolling, shame on me for letting you waste my time! Oh yes, and by the way, have a nice day. :)
I used to joke that my 1st daughter - sm
didn't even know she had a dad until my 2nd daughter was born, then he had no choice but to help out some. I think he changed maybe 5 diapers in the 5 years I had kids in diapers. I don't think he ever fed them once either. With my first daughter he did take one night a week to feed her in the middle of the night and to deal with whatever came up to give me a break. He was working full-time and I was a SAHM so that was the justification there. He would come home from work and I would often fall asleep on the couch with my daughter tucked beside me while he made dinner. He did all the cooking then at least, though I dealt with the baby food and formula, etc. With my 2nd daughter he never took a night with her as at six-weeks she started to sleep through the night, so he got out of his 1-night of night duty. I did not start doing MT until my 2nd daughter was almost 2, but still did it all, except cooking dinner (I still had to clean up the mess). So most guys get off easy I think. I never had heartburn before I got pregnant, or hemorrhoids, oh the joys of motherhood! Now that they are older he does take them to the movies or skating now to give me "time to work" in quiet, joy, granted I usually goof off a while when he does this, need to take a break sometime!
My husband and I joke that if we had...
waited until we were ready to have children, we never would have had any. (We are now expecting our second.) I think that we are just blessed to be so darned fertile! My point being that I was never going to have children and I never would have felt ready for the first one, but our blessing and surprise came anyway. I would not trade him for the world. The second one, with whom I am pregnant now, was not so much a mistake as a lack in diligence in the birth control area. The timing is bad. The baby is good. I did eventually want another--but not one to be born while my husband is deployed. I guess God had different ideas for us. However, my husband is right. If we waited around for the right time, we would never have had the first, let alone the second. You might find that you are more ready than you think! Good luck!
That's a joke, right? I do not think people are really doing this....nm
nm
Even if there was some "inside" joke there
--
I think it was a joke. Lighten up!

Well, alot of us DIDN'T vote them in...
And look at what happened the first time ol' Dubya was elected... a strange little "coincidence" regarding "lost" votes and "hanging chads" happened in Florida - which just by mere "coincidence" Dubya's brother happened to be governor of at the time.
Not sure.....I vote for Half-Dollar! lol
