“The lesser of two evils”? No WAY!

Letter to the editor;

Hitler and Stalin were running for King of the World.

Everyone was advised to choose the lesser of two evils.

It was pointed out that Hitler had excellent table manners and that Stalin was a slob; that Hitler talked way too long whenever he had an audience and that German mathematicians and engineers were generally superior to their Russian counterparts.

And the voters fell into line, ready to vote for Hitler or for Stalin, grasping at such trivialities to justify their votes.

A very few voters publicly said they would vote for anybody else on the ballot, or even write in the President of Switzerland or somebody.

They were hooted down with choruses of “You must choose the lesser of two evils!” (repeated thousands of times).

We are told our vote will not count unless it is for McCain or Obama.

I tell you your vote won't count unless it is for someone else. Anybody else.
