Your thoughts on your vote...

[Kagemusha]

I didn't vote in Iraq. Does that mean I can't complain about Saddam Hussein?

I chose the first answer, even though my wording would have been "Voting is a civic duty and my vote doesn't matter".

Here is what i stated:

My opinion is that if you dont vote.You have no business criticize your government.That way you dont use your change to effect your countrys policy.If nothing else voting gives you right to criticize.

Tachikaze,Are you from Iraq?I think my precize words were "your government",right?

Mods, be ruthless in the suppression of those who delve into Iraq war or any other political irrelevance...

I want to see the rolling heads and blood of the guilty (metaphorically of course)...

Not voting is a politcal act. When turnout for elections drops below 30% then mainstream parties get VERY jittery. This is becuase they get increasingly in danger of single issue parties and new parties coming along and trouncing them.

The trubble is to see the difference between the political act of not voting and the apathy vote.
Personally I consider that's what blank votes are for.
