Why People Vote Republican....

Maybe you don't, but I always get people asking me why I vote Republican. Well, I vote Republican because their platform overall is what I believe. Sure, there are a few social issues that I disagree with, but I discount them because I don't think the goverment should be involved in what we do personally anyway.

Anyway, I got this forwarded to me earlier this week. It's called 'Why I've Decided to Vote Democratic', and it's obviously sarcastic - but it does give you the base reasons why Democrats are a little misguided. I did delete one of reasons listed, because I think it would offend a friend or two.... Enjoy.

WHY I'VE DECIDED TO VOTE DEMOCRATIC


I'm voting Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would.

I'm voting Democrat because freedom of speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.

I'm voting Democrat because when we pull out of Iraq I trust that the bad guys will stop what they're doing because they now think we're good people.

I'm voting Democrat because I believe that people who can't tell us if it will rain on Friday CAN tell us that the polar ice caps will melt away in ten years if I don't start driving a Prius.

I'm voting Democrat because I'm not concerned about the slaughter of millions of babi es so long as we keep all death row inmates alive.

I'm voting Democrat because I believe three or four pointy headed elitist liberals need to rewrite the Constitution every few days to suit some fringe kooks who would NEVER get their agendas past the voters.

I'm voting Democrat because I believe oil companies' profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene but the government taxing the same gallon of gas at 15% isn't.
