electoral college

Also known as the Electorate. A very complex way of electing the President of the United States that is mandated in the Constitution. Each state is given a number of electors or electoral votes by population—California 54 and Wyoming 3—equal to the number of electors it has in the Congress. On election day Americans actually vote for an elector to cast their vote rather than voting for the President himself, despite what the ballot says. Most states have a “winner take all” system that gives all of its electoral votes to the candidate with the most votes. However, some states have no law, and the electors may vote for the candidate they wish or their electoral votes will be awarded based on the popular vote. Six weeks after the general election and the popular vote, the chosen electors travel to their state capital to cast their vote for President; these are the actual votes cast for the President. The candidate with at least 270 electoral votes (one more vote than 50% of the total electoral votes) is the winner. The electoral college and not the popular vote, is what actually elects the President. This system was put in place by our Founding Fathers in the Constitution but resulted in two candidates—one being George W. Bush in 2000—being elected after losing the popular vote. The electoral college has come under fire a few times (usually by liberals who don’t like the Constitution), but works in general. The last time was in 2000 after George W. Bush defeated Vice President Al Gore. The system isn’t perfect but ideal in a Representative Republic like the United States. Changing it would require a Constitutional Amendment by the Congress and a majority of the fifty states.
The electoral college is the process by which we elect the President of the United States.

opportunist

Someone who takes advantage of situations and people to get what they want. They put material and superficial things above people, and their wants over the needs of others. In a way, many politicians are also opportunists because they take advantage of the socially downtrodden to shove socialism and more government down our throats.
An opportunist is a dngerous person and should never be trusted.

Walmart

The only mega-corporation that can turn surburban America into a haven for whitetrash. The people who shop there are digusting (especially in the desert southwest)and the employees are disgusting. Many of them need to shower, dont speak English, aren't helpful, aren't customer-service friendly, dont have professional skills, don't have people skills and lack an education. Many of its employees are either ex-cons who are just waiting to steal your identity, black men with dreadlocks who wear pants that are ten sizes to big that are worn below their ass as if they were falling down or illegal immigrants who cant speak a damb word of English who are rude and dont give a crap about your customer-service needs. Hell, ALL of their janitors are here illegaly anyway. You go into a department asking where a product is and their piece-of-crap employees say, "I don't know, sir" and walk away with out the 2-seconds of care in the world to find out. I shouldn't be too surpised because the employees are treating the customer the exact same way they are treated by the company. I admit that I am anti-Walmart.
Walmart is a piece-of-crap company with piece-of-crap workers and a piece-of-crap, anit-American philosophy that gives Capitalism a bad name. This company needs to be investigated by the Justice Deaprtment, the Department of Labor and the Federal Trade Commission and its CEO thrown in jail. I DESPISE everything about Walmart and hope they go out of business one of these days.

ME: "Excuse me, sir but do you carry the Panteen brand of shampoo? I am finding everything else but that."

EMPLOYEE: "I don't know, sir."

ME: "Can you find out?"

EMPLOYEE: "It's not my department."

ME: "Nevermind, jerkoff. I want to see your supervisor."

EMPLOYEE: "Whatever, homie. Piece"

work ethic

An idea foreign to Americans these days which taught that you must work hard to earn what you desire. It is something Americans, sadly, do not have anymore because the government has provided entitlements without having to work for it.
People will not have a work ethic if they are not taught the concept as a child, especially nowadays when liberals in the government discourage them from doing so by providing silly entitlements.

Boswash

The crowded region of the Eastern seabord of the U.S steretching from Boston, MA to the Washington DC Metro area. It has about 30 million people or so and is known for its traffic, high cost of living, enormous diversity, bad weather and downright bad attitude and rudeness by most of its people.
I would NEVER live in the Boswash region: the people suck and so does the traffic and weather.

momma's boy

A wimp. A sissy. A wuss. An immiture adult male who refuses to grow up by allowing his mommy to run his life. If he's married, his wife is probably a frustrated and lonely woman in constant opposition to her mother-in-law. If he's single and seeking a spouse, he will want his mommy's permission to date/marry her. There is NOTHING wrong with a man who wants his mother's approval for his woman (harmony between the mother and other woman is important), but wanting her permission is another issue. Upon his mother's death, he will emotionally withdraw and want to die with her and won't be able to function without her. A man becomes a momma's boy either by being coddled since childhood or his insecurity hasn't allowed him to mature and indivituate from her emotionally.
Being a momma's boy is probably the #1 thing that can ruin a man's relationship with the woman in his life.

police

People that wear blue or black uniforms who get paid to set people up and plant evidence on them, they actually smoke and use the dope from people they bust on the streets, are racists and beat black men half unconscience, have an addiction to doughnuts, pull motorists over on the road and unfairly give them a ticket because they haven't met their monthly quota, beat their wives and just are hypocrites and just as corrupt as the people they arrest.
The police calling themsleves "public servants" are actually a scandalous clad of douhgnut junkies.
