I know I am going to be flamed and ridiculed and criticized and outcasted and probably booted off the forums for what I'm about to say but:

I didn't vote.

Why? Because I do not like Bush or Kerry. It's hard for me to vote for someone who I don't like either way. As Uchiha said, we all know what Bush stands for, even if it's all the wrong reasons. But what about Kerry?

Kerry, we have no idea what he is...and honestly, the way he acts...trying to act "cool" and "hip" to appeal to the younger generation...that annoys me. Plus, he's a very smooth talker...a very smooth talker. He almost acts like a cars salesman...what's that about? He says all this stuff, but then he goes back on what he says...he tries to appeal to everyone...saying one thing to appease one side and saying something else to appease another...just so he can look like the "good guy." Another thing, his face doesn't show he is the most reliable person (what I mean by this is, just the way he looks...he doesn't seem very reliable). I mean (as I said) sure he knows how to talk...but can his really put his words into action? Can he actually do everything that he says he's gonna do or will do? Also, about the gay marriage thing, Kerry constantly seems to been picking on Mary Cheney, saying he is in support of gay marriage, but then he also says he believes that marriage is a union between a man and a woman. What he heck, man?

BUT

Bush, on the other hand, is just...he's just disgraceful. He's just this really ignorant, xenophobic, pro-war, stuttering fool who uses religion (and what he hell is up with the religion thing? He says he's so Godly and loves God and all that junk, but yet, he fails to attend mass every Sunday. His supporters say he's too "busy" being the President and all...but there were other Presidents who went to Church...like Clinton) and his advantage with Jeb Bush being his bro in Flordia, to outbeat the masses and gain support. He hasn't been able to do a single thing that he had promised to do when he won the first year and I bet this time will be no different. He is the cause of the failing economy (what is wrong with him? He says he cares about the USA, screw that) and that millions of immigrants couldn't get their green card for a long time due to his ridiculous laws. I'm pretty sure many of us know what the hell Bush is and has done, so I needn't say more.

So, like I said, I couldn't possibly vote for two people I do not like or support whatsoever. And for those who say to me, "YOUR VOTE COULD'VE MADE A DIFFERENCE, YOU PRICK!!" Don't worry...my state was so pro-Kerry that my vote really wouldn't have made a difference. My state was immediately up on count when they started listing the states Kerry won over.
