Subject: Being a Good Democrat
At the risk of offending my Democratically inclined friends, I am only trying to help you to become a better Democrat. Virtually anyone can be a Democrat. Just simply quit thinking and vote that way. But, if you want
to be a GOOD Democrat, there are some prerequisites you must have first.
Compare the below and see how you rate.
1. You have to believe the AIDS virus is spread by lack of federal funding.
2. You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.
3. You have to believe that guns, in the hands of law-abiding Americans, are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Chinese communists.
4. You have to believe that there was no art before federal funding.
5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical, documented changes in the earth's climate, and are more affected by yuppies driving SUV's.
6. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial but being homosexual is natural.
7. You have to be against capital punishment but support abortion on demand at any point in the pregnancy.
8. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity and jobs.
9. You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but loony activists who have never been outside Seattle do.
10. You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it.
11. You have to believe the military, not corrupt politicians, start wars.
12. You have to believe the NRA is bad, because it supports certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is good, because it supports certainparts of the Constitution.
13. You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.
14. You have to believe that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinem are more important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, General Robert E Lee or Thomas Edison.
15. You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides aren't.
16. You have to believe Hillary Clinton is really a lady.
17. You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried, is because the right people haven't been in charge; big government always knows better than you.
18. You have to believe conservatives telling the truth belong in jail, but a liar, sex offender and draft dodger belongs in the White House.
19. You have to believe that homosexual parades displaying drag, transvestites and bestiality should be constitutionally protected and manger scenes at Christmas should be illegal.
20. You have to believe that illegal Democratic party funding by the Chinese is somehow in the best interest of the United States.
21. You have to believe Mr. Clinton "did not have sex with that woman" -- try telling your wife or husband.
22. You have to believe Richard Nixon obstructed justice by having an 18 minute gap in one tape of his recorded conversations, but that it was only an innocent mistake that one year's worth of Al Gore's e-mails were erased. And, wouldn't you know that these e-mail's of Al's just
happen to be the ones subpoenaed by the White House committee and a federal grand
jury in their continuing investigation of campaign finance abuses and other matters.
23. You have to believe Hillary's Rose Law Firm billing records, under subpoena, could not be found for three years, but suddenly turned up on a coffee table in the White House.
------------------
You have to be there when it's all over. Otherwise you can't say "I told you so."
Better days to be,
Ed
