Long long ago

Or at least it seamed that way. November 2007 the campaigners came to New Hampshire. The Primary is coming, the Primary is coming they cried. Vote for my guy, vote for my guy they did cry. Even if sometimes the guy was a girl.

To do my duty with so many names what was I to do. Many people where more than happy to direct me to sites to survey my views and line me up with a candidate.

I went to several and not to my surprise a guy I had voted for before was at the top of the heap. 65% agreement with Ron Paul, at last I could vote in a major party primary with conviction.

The dust has cleared the vote is near. If I listen to the media I have two choices the guy I agreed with 34% of the time or the guy I disagreed with 67% of the time.

So search of a site I did. I found one but can’t pass it on because now they want a cell phone number to take their poll. Paul still number one but he is out. McCain wouldn’t even let him talk at the convention. One guy number 16 the other 26 of all the people that announced and ran.

Oh but look at number 2 the Libertarian Bob Barr.

Yes you do have a choice there are six people running for president with their names on the ballot in enough states to win the electoral vote.

Why does the media ignore real choices?

To vote Libertarian or join the majority of Americans and stay at home on Election Day?

Drive thru tax

thers is a new potetial revenue stream for the state of New Hampshire a drive thru tax.

As I was standing in line at Dunkies the other day it dawned on me. The drive thru line smaked around the building and out on to Wasnington street. Why not a drive thru fee. 50cents per order.

I suggest this for three reasons. First it will get some of us off our fat duffs, out of the car and into the fresh air. Imagine the calories waddled off on the stroll into the coffe shop, bank, resturant Pharmacy etc.

Second by shutting off the car it will save energy. Yes if you have to idle more than thirty seconds it saves fuel to shut the car off and turn it back on. Get ecersise and save money.

third revenue first for the state but how about 10 cents of it going to the host community.

Id it the trans fat or the we are fat. Get in line say hi to your neighbor
