Victoria Jackson, apparently intent on proving that she actually is the single dumbest creature on the entire planet, admits that she didn't vote until she was in her 40s because she didn't know how.
I didn't vote for anyone. I didn't know how. I didn't know where to go. I never saw a sign that said, "Vote Here." I didn't know how to "register" or even that I had to register. I didn't know what the candidates stood for or how to find out. Word of mouth I guess, but no one I hung out with talked about politics, ever.
And to make things even funnier, she thinks she helped George W. Bush defeat Bill Clinton in the 2000 election:
Now, when I say, "I'm mad at the Christians," I include myself. I am a Christian. And, I must confess, if I am to be truthful, that...okay, I'll just put it out there...the first time I ever voted I was forty something. There I said it. I know. It's embarrassing. But I'm trying to make a point. It was the year Clinton said, "...that depends on the meaning of the word 'is'." I snapped. His adultery didn't shock me so much. I had three preachers already who had done that. It was that haughty look, lack of shame, and zero repentance combined with that asinine sentence...the meaning of the word 'is' . That is what led me to the voting booth. I know. I'm sorry. Well, I always thought politics was for the middle age people. But then, one day, I was the middle age people.So, I voted Clinton out. My vote counted. Bush won.
Uh Vicky....sweetie.....Clinton was leaving anyway. He wasn't running in the election you voted in. Al Gore was. You didn't vote Clinton out of office. But wait, she's got more stupid to bring:
In my 20's, Reagan was President. I felt secure. I didn't have to vote. The middle aged people had handled that for me. I did a handstand on the SNL Update desk to celebrate Reagan's trip to Rejeivich. He went there, ended Communism, and tore down the Berlin Wall with his charm, courage and deployment of Pershing and cruise missiles in Europe. That's my President. I am safe.
No, you are stupid. I presume she means Reykjavik, the city in Iceland where Reagan had a summit meeting with Gorbachev in 1986. Where talks collapsed and no agreement at all was made three years before the fall of communism. But what it did do was pave the way for the signing of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty in 1987. Guess what that treaty did? It took all those Pershing and cruise missiles out of Europe.
It's amusing that Reagan worshipers can't seem to get their story straight on this. The most common story is that Reagan bankrupted the Soviet Union by pushing them into an arms race they couldn't afford. Now here's Vicky Jackson claiming that he defeated the Soviet Union by signing agreements with them that eliminated their need to engage in such an arms race.

No one on Saturday Night Live talked politics? I find that very hard to believe. Maybe they all just developed a policy of not discussing politics with Jackson.

Not just this. The entire Reagan legacy is mythologized to the point where it has little resemblance to reality. He was a radical socialist by current Republican standards.

Perhaps Jackson is actually a comic genius, engaging in a multi-decade put-on that would put Andy Kaufmann to shame. I might actually find that more plausible than the idea that a grown semi-literate adult thought they were voting against Clinton in the 2000 election.

I seem to remember running across rhetoric with a similar incoherent inconsistency back in 1981...

Sergeant Hulka: Son, there ain't no draft no more.
Cruiser: There was one?

I've been voting since I turned 18. Jackson's statements are ludicrous.
Knew just where to go to register (Board of Canvassers in my city), and always voted for myself and not how family voted per se.
But then I grew up steeped in politics. You can't help that if you live in Rhode Island.

Ed states:
While I realize you attached this observation to Ms. Jackson's not knowing how to vote, I'd argue her understanding of history as expressed here is consistent with most social conservatives including Sarah Palin. While her idiocy regarding voting distinguishes her to some degree, the rest of her recital of history is par for the course amongst the Palinistas. So dumbest person on planet? Nah, merely an amusing quirk I wish more of her kind possessed where the entirety of her politics and their underlying premises are representative of many social conservatives.
Is President Clinton on video with the "is" statement that would allow her to claim she was visually repelled by his "haughtiness"? I thought that statement came through depositions that were not video-taped. Regardless, President Clinton spent a couple of hours repenting in front of a bunch of Christian ministers that was broadcast on national TV. Her claiming she was repelled by an unrepentant man rings false given I've encountered no President more repentant for a specific set of misdeeds (sex with Ms. Lewinsky and then lying about it).

Victoria Jackson states:
Reminds me of all the conservatives who criticize President Obama's defense against terrorism by also proclaiming that President Bush and VP Cheney kept us safe (as if 9/11 never happened or happened on Clinton's watch). E.g., Rudy Giuliani, Bush's last press secretary Dana Perino, Mrs. Bush, others.
Both make sense in the Palin world if the framework is that you are engaged in a metaphysical battle.

James Sweet @6,
I'll give Jackson the benefit of the doubt and say that in 2000, she knew she was voting against Gore rather than Clinton, but her memory has gotten fuzzy about ten-year-old events. To me, the slip doesn't just illustrate the vagaries of memory, but how little she can differentiate one socialist-communist-Democrat from another.

As some people already pointed out, I don't think Jackson's version of history is all that different than mainstream conservative mythology. These are the same people that believe Obama is a socialist, even though he's clearly just another corporate puppet like most of Washington. Like Ed has said, the new boss is same as the old boss.

What we have to give Reagan credit for -- and both sides forget this -- is not "standing up to the Russians," but sitting down with them and starting the process of ending the nuclear arms race. Conservatives at the time were at best apprehensive and more often outraged at this. It's much the same as Nixon normalizing relations with China -- nobody else could have gotten away with it.

I'm really starting to think there should be some kind of American history/civics test required for voting. Apparently the question "Who was the first U.S. president" would take out 90 percent of young Oklahomans out of the voter pool (now, how do we prevent them from continuing their gene pool?).

RE: Michael Health @ 10:
>>Is President Clinton on video with the "is" statement that would allow her to claim she was visually repelled by his "haughtiness"? I thought that statement came through depositions that were not video-taped.
According to my recollection, yes, her stopped clock was right on that. I can remember seeing it also. I think it was a video tape from a Grand Jury investigation over whether he had lied about current affairs, in the nuisance sexual-harassment lawsuit by Paula Jones which was instigated and funded by his political enemies. I think I saw it on "60 Minutes" - but I am sure I did see it, whether I have its provenance right or not.
Personally, given what I saw as the low, muddy road taken by his political enemies, I did not begrudge him the lawyerly gleam in his eyes as he described how he was able to mentally parse his way past an embarrassing personal question. That does not mean I condoned his over all behavior, but it bothered me more to read in "Sports Illustrated" that he cheats in golf.
Full disclosure: I am not a golfer but got dragged out on a course by a friend who needed a twosome once. I topped my drive and rolled it for about 100 yards. He hit a long drive into some trees on the right. Then he teed up another ball, and hit it out of bounds to the right. Then he teed up a third ball and hit a good drive down the middle. I took a couple more hits to get on the green, and several putts. "What did you get," he asked, with his pencil at the ready with a scorecard. "A seven," I replied. "Not bad," he said," I got a par five." Well, it annoyed me. I understand Bill Clinton keeps score the same way.

Just to note one more bit of ignorance in her idiocy - as near as I can tell, she's lived in California since the '80s. California has consistently cast its electoral votes for the Democrat since '92. Her vote didn't count for Bush - any more than my vote here in Georgia counted for Obama.

You have to actively go out of your way to not now how to vote until you're 40. If you get to 40 and don't even know how to register, then fuck you...you shouldn't be allowed to at that point because you're clearly too much of a fucking moron to be counted on to cast a decent vote.

Amusingly (considering she was a part of the anti-ACORN crowd), if she wasn't on the right side of the tracks, they could've helped her.
So not repenting (or pretending to properly or crediting Christ for your sudden change after you got caught) after getting your willy wet equals moral outrage, but the two terms that followed it of cronyism, incompetence, malevolence and theft…nothing?(and also the State when its head is a Republican)
Ah, this is a case of the no-eyed man being king in the land of the blind. That can't be right… I've asked this a bunch of times, but where was her outrage while BushCo ran the place? And by "strictly forbidden" she means "given a free pass". Politics; one of the few subjects where complete ignorance isn't a hindrance. (except for all the ones that came) Alternately, they didn't show up because they see the Teabaggers as a gathering of kooks.

(Obviously Czechoslovakia had a strong manufacturing base, but that was inherited from capitalism and so had to be reworked). Nothing to do with internal ethnic and national tensions such as between the Czechs and Slovaks or Yugoslavia? Nothing to do with long term internal conflicts in Eastern Europe such as the Titoist path vs Stalinism, or the Prague Spring and the consequences of its supression on notions of socialist unity?

We can laugh at Victoria Jackson, but does America make adequate arrangements to register voters and inform them? My own country, Britain, arranges for every household to be visited and places a legal onus on the householder to register every potential voter, which is done either by completing and returning the enclosed postage-paid form or by being interviewed by the registration officer. Householders can opt for their home to be excluded from the public version of the electoral register, which may be abused to send personalized junk mail.
A couple of weeks prior to every election all eligible voters receive a voting card telling them the date and time of the election, where to vote, and how to make alternative arrangements if they will not be able to make it to the polling station on the day.
Although the primary literature is in English, every practical effort is made to communicate with the householder and all voters in a language they understand.

#59:
America would freak if the government sent someone to register them to vote, and they'd gripe their heads off about government waste if it mailed notifications to them about upcoming elections.
As for how it gets done in America, most states used to teach Civics, aka American government. The course explains how the system works, and I can't imagine too many teachers not explaining how voting worked, locally. After all, since the early 70s, 18-year-olds have been eligible to vote, and guess what age usually take Civics. If you said 18, or almost 18, congratulations. Alas, Civics seems to be disappearing from high schools.
But this doesn't mean that election information isn't available. Every two years, we are inundated with:
* News coverage, mostly through print and TV; however, people with cable and FM radio listeners can go all day without hearing anything about politics, since so many stations "cocoon" listeners in content and ads.
* Cold solicitation at our homes: telephone, personal visits, mailings.
* Advertising, and not just billboard or other media ads. In just about every neighborhood--even the wealthiest, someone or some business has signs supporting a candidate or referendum issue. Cars everywhere sport bumper stickers, often with election dates listed. Campaigns aren't above blanketing their parking lots with flyers tucked under windshields.
* If you go to the mall, grocery store, Costco or even Wal-Mart, some interest group will have a table registering voters. Public libraries make their voting information areas prominent during elections, and most of them have the forms, too!
* Since the early 90s, drivers license agencies nationwide have asked people renewing their licenses if they want to register to vote.
* Candidates make appearances in all kinds of places; I met a city council candidate while I was sitting at a stop light. He was in the median, talking issues with people during red lights while supporters passed out his flyers and held up huge signs urging us to vote.
You'd have to be a moron or living in a cave not to know when an election was coming in the US, or to have avoided being offered a chance to register. If you weren't sure when or how to vote, you'd be the biggest dolt on the planet if it never occurred to you to ask someone--anyone--how voting worked. Somebody right in front of this twit's face knew the answer. She was just too apathetic from being braindead to ask.
