A Call To The Kuwait Blogging Community

Bloggers, journalists, writers, political activists, there is a limit to what we can do as individuals - but collectively we can enlighten others who plan to vote.

Even if you are "not into politics" you have to realize one thing: everything in Kuwait is political, everything orbits around it, it influences your quality of life on a daily basis: the Kafkaesque bureaucracy, the lack of business opportunities, your diminishing finances, censorship of books and films, the rise in crime, the environmental pollution ETC - its all tied to how you live and the future of your kids.

Now many Arabic-language blogs and some English-language blogs are already excelling at the election coverage with its smorgasbord of polemic side dishes, but many of you out there still have not taken a dip into the election lake. I urge the Kuwaiti Blogosphere - at least the ones who haven't touched on the upcoming elections to at least post one story about the upcoming elections, it could be a candidate profile, a television spot, an a campaign rally still, a humorous spoof...you decide.

Do your thing. The results might surprise you.

Note: You are welcome to link your posts under this thread.
