10 Reasons

Well, I found this little  list here mildly amusing, although I probably shouldn’t have because the humor basically depends on a generous sprinkling of profanity, along with a lot of racial, sexual and religious trash talk.

Paul Ryan as a child

I did find it a bit journalistically unethical that the headline implied that Snoop Dogg had written this, and not some character on the internet who goes by the name of DragonFlyJonez but, it only got news value when Mr. Dogg reposted it and besides, it was clear enough if you actually bothered to read the article.

Despite the scandalous state of modern journalism, it’s not journalism’s fault that most people only read the headlines and very often get even those wrong.

Anyway, it inspired me to write my own list, which I’m about to do right now.

Top 10 Reasons to Vote Against Mitt Romney:

1.  At the very best, benign neglect of animals.  He tied his dog to the roof of the car, forces his wife’s horse into unnatural positions, and wants to kill, stuff and eat Big Bird.

2.  Has Eddie Munster for a running mate.

3.  Never really explained what the trees in Michigan were the right height for.

4.  You should never, ever trust anybody who says “trust me.”

5.  Can’t sing for shit.

6.  Doesn’t really like grits.  Never actually eats donuts.

7.  Hidden tax returns prove existence of Illuminati.

8.  War with  somebody.  Maybe England.

9.    Secretary of State Donald Trump.

10.  Arithmetic

Top 10 reasons to  vote for President Obama

1.  He’s the kind of guy you can have a cup of coffee  with.

2.  After being forced by familial  and  political consideration  to get a dog, he seems to have adjusted rather well to the situation, like Charles Grodin in Beethoven.

3.  Michelle.

4.  Is not wearing magic underwear.

5.  Four more years of baggers frothing at the  mouth and jabbering incoherently, for the laughs.

6.  If those who insist on misinterpreting Mayan culture in order to sell books and whatnot turn  out to be right, due to the Blind Hog and the Acorn theory, and the world ends this December, at least we’ll go out with a little bit of class.

7.  He got us Health Care and, as Joe Biden so eloquently pointed out, that is a big fucking deal.

8.  Joe Biden.

9.  We want to see just how tall Malia will get.

10. Arithmetic.

Well, that was fun.  Good night.

    I wasn’t competing. I liked the concept. There are hundreds and hundreds of reasons not to vote for Romney.
