Vote Early And Vote Often
I voted last week. This time I marked the sample ballot so I'd know later what I'd voted for - mostly because the slew of idiotic CA Propositions just won't stick in my brain until the results are known.
Now that I've voted, though, I still have to endure the constant barrage of negative campaign ads ("If It's Brown, Flush It!"). I have to carry around the TV remote so I can kill the sound when the commercials get shrill. So the other day I got this idea...
TVs all have child filtering or whatever they call it - Parental Control? It wouldn't be hard to require political ads to have a code so TVs could filter them out on command. This should be required on all political ads. Legislatures always exempt themselves and the rest of their skanky class (you'll note that the Do Not Call List specifically exempts political calls spam), but if there's enough of a popular outcry, maybe it could get forced through.
Blessed political silence. I can only dream ...
