35. Trying to help the logically impaired.
If you can't see the difference between someone who actively voted and someone who did not.....

Should your position be held equally accountable with those of Congress? Surely you had an opinion?




accountable

adj 1: liable to be called to account; "you are answerable for this debt" 2: being obliged to answer to an authority for your actions; "governments must be accountable to someone beside themselves"; "fully accountable for what they did"; "the court held the parents answerable for their minor child's acts of vandalism"; "he was answerable to no one"



Notice how it says nothing about "inactions" or "what you didn't do."
