If you don't vote, you don't matter

| Hi, Everybody,
Just vote.
If you don't vote, you will, to that extent, have committed and
condemned yourself to four years of apathy. And you will have declared
yourself apathetic in spite of a catastrophic attack on your native land
and the even more catastrophic war launched in response to it. And, to
that extent, you will have betrayed your own future and the trust of
those who may depend on you for the safety and security of theirs. You
will know in your heart that you turned your back to yourself and the
ones you love. Ultimately, I do not think you will get away with that.
You will, however, be able to say what you would have done (as if you
could have the chance again). You will be able to say you "knew it" if
the candidate you preferred is elected. You will be able to say how
disappointed you are if the candidate you did not prefer is elected. The
one thing you will not be able to say is that you had anything to do
with the outcome of the election. I don't know about you, but this is
the one election about which I would not want my family, friends,
neighbors, or colleagues to know I didn't bother to cast my vote.
Under the tree over the valley,
George

| Nice article, but what exactly is the relationship with Biztalk?
Please go to a gossip-forum or stay at your own blog.
