It's the lamest childish reason I ever heard for not voting. People like that have probably never voted in their lives, edhopper. I understand how upset you are about their reason, but they're lame, shallow, stupid, air-headed. Life is a beach to those people. You just need to realize that there are people like that out there in our populace. It takes all kinds. Let's just be thankful there's more people like you and DU/us than of them. But, it is maddening.
