I got this in an e-mail and I found it quite interesting. Ill wait a day or two to see who you all pick then let you know whos who.
It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates.
Candidate A.
Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.
Candidate B.
He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.
Candidate C.
He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.
Which of these candidates would be your choice?

Lets vote together
It is important for fire fighters of this country to stick together and vote together to get a common out come. This will also show the country that we are united.
The IAFF will give us information on all the people running. The most important thing to keep in mind is the bill in the house known as HR980.
This bill would help the fire fighters in the south out a lot. If a candidate is for this bill, then I will vote for HIM!
Notice I said HIM!
Paid fire fighters in the south are suffering because we do not have bargaining rights. We need this bill to pass. Thanks.
If you would like more information please go to IAFF online under legislation and find out all you need to know.

I'm one of the few that don't know who the 3 are....so on that note.
My choice would be B...
Kicked out of office..Why...could have not agreed with everyone else.
Sleeps in till noon....Me too..(until I hear the wife clock go off)
Used opium...means he's not a saint
Drinks whiskey every night...depends on brand...I have a beer often also
Overall sounds like a person who understands the struggles of everyday people.
Candidate A....smokes and has martinis daily...oh well
couple mistresses...hope he didn't run on the "family values" ticket..
consults an astrologist...possibly can't make a decision on his own
associates with crooked politicians...aren't they all though?
Candidate C...sounds too good to be true
Decorated war vet....all that means is he did exceptional in war...doesn't mean he will be a good politician (we have retired FF's on our state legislature and they want to cut things like collective bargaining and such, stuff that benefited them as FF's)
Vegetarian...so what....maybe won't be for hunters though, doesn't drink, never cheated on his wife...Lots of people don't.
I personally just like B, mostly because he has done what many people do. Not the opium thing though, but many people have experimented with drugs in their past. The big question is if he was honest about that. Did he inhale?

Well..........
My Three Choices IN ORDER, are.......... (Drum Roll)...........
1....... B
2....... A
3....... A Jointly held Co-Position by B and A.
By way of explanation, I wouldn't trust C with anything, people like Him/Her should be ordered off the Planet. C's ONLY redeeming feature on that list is "Decorated War Hero".
AND, "C" is starting to look like John Kerry........Last edited by hwoods; 03-04-2007 at 09:52 AM.

I've seen this before. And I also know who all three candidate names.
It will be surprising when they are finally revealed.Politics is like driving. To go forward select "D", to go backward select "R."

If you want to give your pets names go right ahead, down here they are called "Food".
Oh well, back to the drawing board with my chalk.
Psychiatrists state 1 in 4 people has a mental illness.
Look at three of your friends, if they are ok, your it.
