1. Here's the thing.....

...if you had a car that rattled and bumped along, smoking, wheezing and sputtering to a stop all the time, you'd take it to a mechanic, wouldn't you?

Then later you go to pick up your car, and the mechanic said he KNEW just what the problem was and he had replaced the malfunctioning parts with just the right parts, and that he used just right English with his wrist while turning the screws and bolts -- just so.... that NOW it would finally run just like it was designed to do.

So you go sit in your a car and you find that it looks like it can run, and it you start it up and it sounds okay too. But the minute you get behind the wheel and start down the road -- it all starts again. Only this time there's new noise added to all the old ones.

You turn around and take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

You pick it up again. Same thing, you take it back.

Finally one day you ask yourself: Why do I keep taking my car back to the same mechanic who tells me that they know exactly what the problem is and they'll get it fixed right away. And yet it only seems to make things worse?

The answer: BAD HABIT.

3. Bad habit indeed.

and there is only two mechanics you can take it to, and the other one will put sugar in you gas tank and tells you it is a sweet ride.
Time to bring a new mechanic in town.

4. We need more than a new mechanic.....

...we need a new and better concept for getting from here to there.

- Otherwise, all this pain and suffering would have been for naught.

8. Hillary has already fully endorsed the TPP, so unless she has "misspoken" that is her record and the

Third and last reason I'm not voting for her for anything. By the way, the first two were voting to invade Iraq and wanting to Bomb Syria earlier this year. The TPP tops the first two, as it will keep biting the 99% in the ass every hour of every day, without end.
