Why there's chocolate ice cream

Do you know why there's chocolate ice cream? It's because some people don't like vanilla! Thay might seem obvious, but it's a lesson that the leaders of the Republican Party have apparently never learned. People who don't like vanilla ice cream don't want "Vanilla Bean" or "French Vanilla" or "Vanilla Lite"; if they want ice cream all, what they want is something completely different: maybe chocolate or maybe not, but definitely NOT any kind of vanilla. The same thing applies to politics too: When people are upset with, or distrustful of, or even outright scared of the Democrat party and are voicing their feelings openly and.......

I like chocolate. I also like vanilla. Many people like both chocolate and vanilla.

Therefore, this analogy, that political choices are like ice cream choices, is a bunch of cow manure.

There are other, more effective, ways of making the same point about the GOP making a significant mistake in fielding candidates and creating policy.

Keep ice cream in its exalted position, not down in the gutter with politics.

Isn’t vanilla frequently used as a flavoring in chocolate?

I thought you used it as a flavoring in almost everything.

My college roommate worked in an ice cream manufacturing plant. He told me that whenever a fly flew into a batch of vanilla, they picked out the pieces of the fly — wings, legs, head, etc.; but, because they could never find all the pieces, they changed the batch of vanilla to chocolate. His advice: always choose vanilla.

Those types of Republicans are trying to fool the MSM into thinking they aren’t really bad guys at all - just a different shade of welfare capitalist than the Democrats offer. It isn’t going to work, becasue the MSM will bring its full guns to bear on the rightmost candidate in any race, even if the candidate is pretending to be only a little more right than the Democrat. Might as well go all in and propose eliminating HHS entirely - the Republican is going to get the same treatment, regardless.

Kind of an urban legend.

If other flavors of Ice cream taste funny, they don't throw it out, they make it into chocolate.

No...NOT Vanilla Fudge Ice Cream.

I’m talking about Fudge but instead of chocolate...Vanilla.

Also...as for the age thing...don’t really care. I’m happy and have all my family and friends and still drink wine, walk four on the treamdill, workout daily, enjoy my yard, birds, husband and family still have my health number one and I thank God for that and...love my country. Am a proud Catholic, Proud Conservative, A proud wife, mother and grandmother and am blessed more than I probably deserve. :)
