Do me a favor

Please vote. I don't really care who you vote for, as long as you have thought through your decision. Don't vote knee-jerk. Don't vote for someone you know is corrupt. Don't vote for anyone who has lied to you. Don't vote for anyone you're certain wouldn't hold your values as important. Don't vote based on what the worst thing their opponent said about them was. Don't stoop to that level. And please, for the love of God, don't vote based on stupid rhetorical nonsense, like the Kerry thing. Because if you're going to take what Kerry said at face value and believe that he actually believes all of America's troops are stupid, you have to believe the words our President has spoken:

Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.-- President George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Aug. 5, 2004

But please vote. There are 600,000 of us who don't get that opportunity, by design, and never will unless we leave our homes.
