Umm, sorry Homer, but who's screwing thing up in Ohio?

Jennifer Brunner

argues that they are merely “casting their ballot” rather than “voting”

Bans GOP election monitors

etc etc

Please tell us the truth about Freddie and Fannie, etc.

It won't work JAKE,

People will not be moved, and will go out to vote for Obama..

And if it does come out with a corrupt results,

I would hate to be the people who organized it.

Rebellion is inevitable.

Jake shame on YOU,

Are you trying to say that American voters are JUST LIKE HOMER SIMPSON.

That we do the same stupid things as Homer.

If that is what you are saying then it is back firing.

American might have been like HOMER when they elected D...A.. Bush, but the beatens Americans have taking has moved a lot of Americans out of the "Fear, Alice in Wonderland, B.S." of the Bush Era.

How dare you.

Obama 08

If only it was true! Electronic voting machines are evil and a threat to democracy

Homer made the right choice Obama is the right man for now!

Does anyone support Electronic voting machines ?

McCain camps spinning the truth:


Obama's an elitist.

Truth McCain has 7+ houses and 13 cars on his second wife spent his life in the senate with government paid for health healthcare.
Flying on private jets his campaign is ran by lobbyist for lobbyists!


Obama's Dangerous.

This is from the guys who was the cheerleader for the war in Iraq bassed on a lie which will be known as America's biggest foriegn policy mistake ever!

How does anyone believe this **** ?

Vote smart vote Obama!!

Well done Homer. Way to REALLY put country first.

I love it. That's good Groening.

From a man who started out with Life is Hell, it is the perfect place for Homer to be chewed up and spit out.

SandyB,

The Simpsons in recent years have made a gag out of Homer never being in work or wroking dozens of different jobs for a single episode.

He may or may not still work at the power plant.

Depends on the storyline.

I think he would go democrat. 20 seasons, wow.

Posted by: Ben Straub | Oct 2, 2008 2:54:39 PM

Homer's dad? Grandpa?

I thought he was in the old age home?

Are you thinking of BART, and not HOMER?

I heard the ACORN group in New Orleans is in BIG trouble.

Apparently the brother of one of the ACORN founders has embezzled millions from the group funds, and the relatives have been trying to keep the crimes under wraps for awhile.

Obama (D-ACORN)
Biden (D-MBNA)

Sandy - Homers dad works at the new-clear plant. (I have teenage males in my home.)

UK ambassador delivers frank assessment of 'decidedly liberal' Obama in secret letter to British PM Gordon Brown... LONDON TELEGRAPH to reveal all in leaked letter... Developing...

D'OH!

Beck - where did the machines come from Florida?

Posted by: Jenny Rome Ga | Oct 2, 2008 2:46:36 PM

Obama (D-ACORN) anyone?

Posted by: Captain America | Oct 2, 2008 2:43:27 PM

bye the way, even if Palin does fine, it doesnt change much, John McCain is the top of the ticket and he blew it badly for 2 straight weeks, showing his uncontrolled strategy of ad hoc stunts, which he hoped to tie together long enough to get elected... his real message? the American people have no attention span, I will just tie enough prejudicial "events" together and form a negative impression of the opposition. After all, the peoples consciousness is only episodic and they never think through a thing ! This is why Sarah Palin, herself a gimmick, matters not...its who placed her before us who is to blame.

Posted by: Curtis | Oct 2, 2008 2:43:16 PM

I thought Homer worked at a nuclear power plant?

You would think he would support McCain.

Ingrate...............

"Don't blame me. I voted for the green
M & M" - Homer Simpson

Posted by: Ryan C | Oct 2, 2008 2:37:23 PM

McCain, Obama and Biden deserve equal credit for this bailout. Palin is the only one not involved. I guess if I was Homer I would vote for the ticket that included Palin.
