Fizzwits works w/ HS seniors, and encourages them to vote
« on: April 10, 2014, 05:34:35 AM »
This raises (not 'begs the question') the question of which fast food franchise Fizzwits works in.  Did she get someone else to take her pre-employment drug screening?

i supervise a number of hs seniors at my job

 i periodically go around and check to see who's turned 18 recently. if they have, i ask if they've registered to vote and encourage them to do so, telling them where they can go if they haven't done so. they're mostly young women, a few of them who came to the US as children.
 
i'm not allowed to talk to them about politics, but i explain to them why it's important to vote. they're all preparing for college, many wanting to study nursing or teaching. i tell them that voting can affect the cost of college, the fields they want to go into, the taxes they pay. i feel i have a responsibility to do this and need to start expanding my efforts to the other young adults at work.
 
their voices need to, and deserve to be, heard. i just hope they listen to me.

We know full well that she does anyway.  She hedges her next statements.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

I'm surprised she doesn't advise them to register and vote multiple times, like a good democrat.

She works for a telephone call-center.

Are these people even legal citizens?  Stop haranguing the help and get back to work, Fizz.  Beer's not free.

It happens.

Better two duplicates than having a thread over there that should be brought here, but isn't because one might be fearful it'd be a duplicate of what's already here.

I think one of the nice features of CC is the speed at which clean-ups are made, and the pleasant way it is done. H5 for that.

edited to add: I just rowed to the island and returned. Even now there are two threads about restrooms being shut in Florida (same subject line even), multiple OPs re Colbert and the Tonight show, different subject line but same general info in message block, and a couple on IRS and Rove - all on page 1 of GD.

Perish the thought a DUmmy express his thoughts in an existing thread, no, "Look at MEEEEEEE"

Maybe LFR helped her with her pre employment drug screen.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

It is.  It doesn't bode well for DU as an institution or the calcified geriatrics that occupy the Democratic Party.
