Are you assuming that the mother and father stay married and/or agree on everything? What planet is that? What if the mother and father belong to differing parties -- then who decides which way the triplet babies vote? What if the babies would prefer to exercise their right NOT to vote... and then they grow up being pissed off that they were used as a pawn by their deluded parent for political purposes that the baby would have opposed? Would orphanages get to vote for all the orphans in their care?
As the AEP says, one person, one vote. If you've got a fucking problem with that, too fucking bad. If there's a problem deciding who will represent the children, the legal system can make that decision. Jesus Christ, can't you see the big picture rather than bring up every stupid piddly point you're so famous for?

The legal system is overburdened as it is with nonsense cases.

Okay, so the legal system can take on the task of handling all voting disputes in families, and if children don't like the way their parents are voting for them, they can run away from home. This just keeps getting better and better in Bizarro Bob's Mad Mad World of Complete Chaos and Nonsense.

Look Boob, you're the one proposing communism with your BS proxy system.

That reminds me. When did your parents allow you to vote?

Fuck you. A parent gets more than one vote, twat?
Unfortunately, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. What do you even mean, a parent gets more than one vote. The second, third, fourth or whatever the number of children he has, are being represented by those votes, as goddamn well they should, you fucking Socialist!
Fuck you Bob. Octomom gets nine votes, the fat ignorant slob? People get extra votes because they consume more resources after fucking their filthy asses off? Up yours.

Fuck you Boob. Since you've visited my threads in the Lounge, I'm entitled to do the same here and let me remind you dolt, I created this thread so why don't you go back to another forum where you came from, loser?

Okay, maybe I was too harsh. But sometimes I can't help but wonder how deep/extreme it goes!

You would be 'fat' too if you had 8 children. She's not even fat.
