I read in today's paper what a woman wrote explaining why she's a Democrat. Let me tell you why I'm not. I'm a Republican because:
1. I believe in a sovereign God who sometimes gives us what we deserve.
Fine, this is America, believe what you want. I believe in Santa Claus. Just keep church and state separate.
2. I believe Muslims are our enemies.
Including the babies bombed in their cradles with your tax money? Does your sovereign God approve?
3. I believe in life. A baby is not just a fetus, but a living being no matter where it resides.
Apparently not. See above.
4. I believe there is a good reason for the death penalty.
More Death, eh?
5. I believe in fiscal responsibility, for the government and for us.
So why did you vote for Bush?
6. I believe the government is way too big and rife with greed and corruption.
See # 5.
7. I believe in the truth. People believe lies because it's much easier than finding the truth.
Like WMD's and Nigerian uranium?
I believe in personal responsibility. That includes spanking your children.
Extend them my sympathy.
I believe American women should raise their own children and American men should be men enough to pay for children they've produced.
And is this some sort of value recent developed by the Republican Party?
I believe a man and woman make marriage. Period.
Then marry one, and mind your own business.
I believe in America first and foremost and we ought to take care of our own people, our own land, and illegal aliens should go home.
So why did you support the Iraq War? And unless you are Native American, everyone was an immigrant at one time.
I believe in guns and knowing how to use them properly.
Like Cheney?
I believe war is a fact of life and we should always win.
Like Nam, Korea, the Civil War, Iraq, and next ...
I believe in lower taxes. I know how to spend money better than Congress any day
But Bush believes in national debt.
I believe in voter ID.
As long as they are card carrying Republicans.
I believe there is a moderate and a socialist in this election.
Rather than a fascist?
I agree with a two-party system, but Obama isn't a messiah or a democrat.
He's a Muslim socialist.
Well at least you're consistent.
