Hey remember when...

there were those problems with the voting machines in W. part 1 & 2?

or when there was voter suppression in X election year by the rethuglicans?

Remember when the Democratic party and the DOJ made it a priority to investigate and make sure that the fascist ***holes couldn't subvert democracy again?

Yeah, when I fed my ballot into the Diebold machine when I voted in Arizona yesterday, I couldn't remember any of that shit either.

even when they control the DOJ.

Oh well, I continue to vote for Democrats and tell myself that everything will be fine. Just keep repeating that like a mantra.

Nothing but love projected to all the other hoo-mans out there...good luck folks.
