Poll question: If forced - who would you vote for US President: Michelle Bachman or Sarah Palin
Edited on Fri Jan-21-11 12:10 PM by LynneSin
It is election time and for some bizarro twist of fate the only 2 choices are Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachman running against each other.

If you do NOT vote this basket of kittens:


Will be fed to this very hungry rabid dog:


how will you vote?

5. Do you see "I'd vote for Renew Deal" as an option?
Just for that we're giving the rabid dog these cute puppies



Irony was, that rabid dog use to be as cute as those puppies

:cry:

3. Given the shitastic world either of those women would create ...
I'm thinking more kitties would lose their lives as a result of the Palin and/or Bachmann regimes than the few that would be fed to the dog. So, I'm feeding kittens to the dog in good conscience.

4. Anything to save kittens -- I voted Bachman (gag).
Edited on Fri Jan-21-11 12:52 PM by Arugula Latte
But I'd rather feed the dog to the kittens.

Of course I'd rather feed both Palin and Bachman to both the dog and the kittens. I guess you may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join me, and the world will live as one.

Edited on Fri Jan-21-11 12:17 PM by LynneSin
I'm already use to the cold weather and I want the universal health care!

Although technically your choice would send 5 kittens to be fed to the rapid dog

10. America would just start WWIII within a few minutes of the swearing in either way
I view it as you might as well go to a place of debauchery and enjoy the last few months of the world. Either of them getting elected would be a sign of the apocalypse! :rofl:

8. I'd sacrifice myself to the rabid dog if the only 2 possible outcomes were living under a Bachmann

or Palin administration. At least having Rabies would be a more interesting (and fun?) way to die than starving to death in my retirement, dying of something like cancer because I can't get health insurance, or being nuked by Russia.

Sell the house, convert the retirement fund to Euros and head to Ireland.

I don't think so myself.

44. The lesser evil argument can be made and is always made.

For example.

Who is a lesser evil vice-president, Joseph Leiberman or Richard Cheney?

22. I would take Palin
Edited on Fri Jan-21-11 12:54 PM by Vinnie From Indy
Palin is simply a hillbilly grifter in it for the money. Really not much different than many in the GOP. She is simply not as polished or devious as guys like Newt Gingrich. Bachmann is nuts. She would probably launch a surprise attack on Canada or some other bit of world-ending nonsense.

That dog really looks pissed.

the likelihood that Palin would quit 1/2 way through her first term like she did as governor ?

33. Well you didn't exclude write in, so I'll take write-in for $200 Alex.
You stated the " only 2 choices are Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachman". But that doesn't exclude a write in, just that they would be the only 2 choices listed on the ballot.

35. Fortunately, more kittens are easy to come by.
Poor kitties. But many thousands more kittens will die with either of those two in charge of things.



Although, if Palin did win, it would be over in about 18 months.

40. I'd be voting Green
Because apparently the DNC nominated Palin for her anti-equality ties to the current Kaine/Obama leadership. They have 'ministers' and a 'faith' in common, you know.
