Guide to Voting in North Korea

July 5, 2010 - 9:09 am 8 Comments

As British Ambassador to North Korea Peter Hughes has graciously pointed out, North Korea recently held a fantastically fun election in which 99% of voters turned out and voted 100% approval upon Kim Jong-Il.

To give a closer look at the grand democracy taking place in North Korea, Japans NTV news had a man who once lived in the country reconstruct a typical voting booth scene. The instructi More..ons shown in the video are as follows:

1. Enter the voting room and bow to the staff person as you receive a voting card.
2. Your voting card will have Kim Jong-Ils name printed on it. Old voting cards used to have [ ] Approve [ ] Disapprove boxes one can select, but those cards were abolished in favor of the far more simple support cards.
3. There is a red pen on a side table that you may use to change your voting card to an anti-Kim Jong-il vote. There is a member of the secret police monitoring you as you vote, so the mere act of glancing at the red pen could get you in trouble. If you want to live until the next election, ignore the red pen.
4. To cast your vote, take your card and place it into the box. You must show your respect by bowing before the portraits of Kim Il-Sung and Kim Jong-il as you vote. Use both hands when placing the card in the box.

Everyone must vote. To keep the voter turnout percentage as high as possible, travel permits are heavily restricted in the month leading up to the election and those who are missing on election day may be officially declared dead.

Don’t miss the missile drills going on right now, just in case NK launches that shiny new missile their way.

Voting on Super Tuesday

July 1, 2010 - 5:16 am 23 Comments

My parents and I went out to vote at a lonely little polling center near where we live.

We met some lovely litle volunteer ladies and interviewed them.

My mother couldn’t quite understand what to do in the booth at first!

Thanks to Psychomelody for the rad new intro animation.

I support Barack Obama for president. Check out some work I have done, for the local Obama campaign, by clicking the link below the video.

hillary cry, clinton vote fraud: NH Polls were Right

HILLARY’S ‘CRY’ AND CLINTON VOTE FRAUD:
NH POLLS WERE RIGHT
The Prequel, the Sequel, clinton Hanky-Panky and Machiavelli.

by Mia T, 01.11.08

Pollsters, pundits and media types listen up! The mawkish hand-wringing and self-incrimination can stop.

You were not wrong. Your New Hampshire poll numbers were, in fact, correct.

Let me explain….

Your polls predicted Clinton 30%, Obama 38%, Edwards 18%.

The actual results were Clinton 39%, Obama 36%, Edwards 17%.

The only apparent error is in hillary clinton’s numbers.

But if we adjust for standard-issue clinton hanky-panky, hillary’s numbers are correct, too.

What happened….

When deconstructing clinton moves, Machiavelli will always make more sense than Ockham. Consider this scenario:

The reverse mo from the Iowa loss was quickly transforming New Hampshire, hillary’s putative fire wall, into her Last Stand. Clinton internal polls confirmed what was in the field: A humiliating defeat ahead in New Hampshire, perhaps double-digit, for the quondam shoo-in. Worse, the end of The Reign of Clinton. (Make that ‘better’ if you are not a clinton: You could have cut the pre-primary Schadenfreude on both sides of the aisle with a knife.)

What to do? (Need you ask?)

By the weekend before the New Hampshire primary, the clintons had all the vote fraud in place–ballots to be stuffed, out-of-staters-for-hillary queued up and ready to go. (Locals would later report an unusually large number of vehicles with Massachusetts plates on election day.)

What the clintons needed now was a rationale for what would be a results-altering discrepancy in hillary’s numbers.

Hence the ‘cry.’

But the stage had to be set. Nonhumans don’t cry. And neither do commanders in chief, (although for missus clinton, perceived weakness is secondary to short-term gain: She has played the victim card for votes and power throughout her life and repeatedly during this campaign. See the video, “HILLARY PLAYS THE VICTIM FOR VOTES,” YouTube.)

And so we had the “Access Hollywood” prequel.

And for good measure, a sexist old-saw tailored precisely to foment the pre-Friedan female: The post-’cry’ cry, ‘Iron my shirt!’

Interview: Meles Zenawi

May 23, 2010 - 11:52 am No Comments

Meles Zenawi, the Ethiopian prime minister, presides over the country with the second-largest population in Africa.

Zenawi has been the prime minister of Ethiopia since 1991 but he has most recently been in the headlines for his role in the country’s upcoming elections.

Crtitics claim it is impossible for the opposition to win Sunday’s vote because of legal restrictions imposed by the current administration.

In an interview with Al Jazeera’s Andrew Simmons, Zenawi spoke about his country’s often poor human rights record.
