The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

I don't think voting for someone means that you lose justification to complain about them.

I voted for Bush. Twice, though not in the 2000 primary (he ran unopposed in 04). I complain about things he does.

I voted for McCain. I have more than once, though never in a primary.

Often times voting is about the lesser of two (or more) evils. That was certainly the case with McCain. Often times people promise certain things during a campaign and reneg on those promises. I will complain about those things.
