.vote.obama.

Last Friday afternoon I received a text message on my phone. The sender was a phone number that I did not recognize. The message's signature caught my attention, so I did a reverse search on the Internet and found that it was from a cell phone in Forest Park Georgia. This message did not come from any person I knew, so I suspected that this was cell phone spam. The message was...
Sorry you didn't win
.vote.obama.

Getting a spam message from some slack jawed teenager kind of irritated me so here is how I responded....
I do not not know you, and by your choice of whom to promote, expect that you choose to ignore that you candidate stands for no more than what he will not be. Make sure that you understand the ramifications of what you wish for.

To which I received a reply that cracked me up...
Huh
.vote.obama.

Looking back I think I over reacted. Some poor kid was probably talking about the Creekside football game. A slack jawed teenager for sure, but the ".vote.obama." may just be an auto signature.
Sorry kid, I shouldn't jumped to the conclusion that you were a socialist loving bastard, just that you are ignorant. You'll come around after you pay taxes for a decade or so.
