The Vent / Metro

I'm an old hippy, surfer, liberal man of Zen. I raised my daughter as a single-dad, since she was six-months old. She's now in her 30's, married and a professional, conservative, Christian woman. We agree to disagree and love each other very much. So, I figure I must have done something right!

I see where Stan Wise accepted $10k in campaign contributions just 2 days before voting on those contributors' case. How is that even legal?! That's it, I'm voting for David Staples for PSC! Get the cronies out of there!

So Carleen Cumberbatch's concierge primary care physician saved her life by ordering a test that her cardiologist didn't. That's nice, but what does it say about the quality of care rendered by her cardiologist?

Your "inquiring mind" is a little slow. Polling places are in your neighborhood. Places to obtain a photo ID...not so much. Does that help?

Once again all the intelligent vents are voted to the bottom. You poor people have all consumed way too much of the Willard Kool-aid.

Wondering how any woman could vote for Mitt?

Score: -381

Didn't anyone ever think about the fact that Obama needed to look weak at the debate to re-energize his voters. Unfortunately, most voters are too stupid to see through it- the same ones who will now make sure and vote.
