EXTREAM INNOCENT'S

YEAR 200 ELECTION

by Russ Ellis

I have learned from this election that people don't support a political party, but they support what they are told is good for them by organizations that support a political party. But they give there vote out of innocents, or by being blind to what is really going on. For example the national rifle assocation supports not selling guns to criminal's, so those against gun control voted republican. But how many would have voted republican if they would have known that "drunk drivers" and "dead beat dads" are considered crininals in a lot of States. Many states got laws passed to punish dad beat dads by making it a crime. Its now illegal in many states to give a deer huntng, fishing, or drivers licence to so called "dead beat fathers." Now we can add the right to own a gun to this list for dead beat dads. All these people in Washington DC or State legislature have to do is make something a crime that the innocent think is something minor and they lose there rights. Far to many forgot the National Rifle assocation isn't the republican party. They are made up with both democrats and republicans. Prolife has both, pro choice has both in there organizations. So we end up being hurt by our own ignorance.

Now, we don't know if any coruption went on in Florida, by the Bush camp, (the only camp that matters now), if there was coruption, then it will go to Washington DC with a Presadent with some very powerfull friends. Me, I am an old army follower and my children are grown, so it won't be so bad for me to have a harsh boss that say's your not paid to think, just do it. But we will never know what really went on in Florida, and that bothers me, because we never forced the Federal election commission or the FBI to investagate. Because of this we have an unsettled cloud hanging over all involved in that election who are going to be hurt by it.

I remember when women were bragging about how they, (at that time) new laws on frivolus lawsuits would be good for women. They forgot that the big boys thought sexual harassment laws in the workplace were considered frivouls. So laws were made that made it hard for those who fought for civil rights, to keep fighting. Because they didn't have to pay the court costs of the winner, so they could afford to lose a few cases and await the big winner to come along. When they ended up paying courts cost of the other party involved, because of these new laws, it made it to costly to just take on a client on a percentage bases, the main area that protected our civil rights. So lawsuits that supported womens rights were slowed way down..

Now I could go on and on about election coruption and the paranoia it will create of its impact on all of us, like what's next?? Example: some will shout; He got a general to take over the military, in his cabinate, ooh my Lord he is going to replace some of the Democrates in Congress and the Senate by apointing them to the cabinat, then replace them by appointing some State Governors to replace them; like When Gov Anderson was appointed to the Senate and he appointed his LT Governor to be Govenor in 1972, when Senator Bob Bergland was appointed to the cabinate. But what good are conspiroricys therories now. It is not what we did that counts, its what we now do.. The election is over and now a part of our past... The good and the bad...
