  1. Contemporary western democracry is a con?

    Don’t be daft, our leaders would never lie to us
    That would be downright unstatesmanlike

  3. teigan

    Besides, we voted for them
    So they must be acting in our best interests
    S’just logical, innit

  4. >>Don’t be daft, our leaders would never lie to us<< >>So they must be acting in our best interests<< You're right. How cynical I have become to ever think otherwise. *switches on TV* *takes tray out of microwave* *cries*

    I’m seriously debating whether or not I should actually post this really bad comment…

    Well, I’m glad you did. It started out great, then just got better as it went along

  9. Ah… Ahhh.. AH-CHOO!!!
    Ugh.. uh.. man.. sorry I sneezed (gulp) … I’m allergic to bullshit (wipes nose.)

  10. No but seriously US isn’t a (direct) democracy by definition you’re right. But that would be nuts.
    Someone should pour carmel and nugget over it and plop it in front of a grocery store.
    (cuz that’s where they sell nuts.)
