So some friends posted this in a email today an article written by a Conservative in jest about "Why I am a Democrat" Well it got us to thinking and it sounds like a good project to collect some Freeper ideas on this. Here is my stab at it:
I am a Democrat because unalienable rights come from GOD and as a new age atheist I believe our rights are privileges from an all knowing Government run by Liberal Intellectuals who are smarter than the hay seeds in fly over country who still cling to their guns and religion to explain a complex world beyond their limited brains.
I am a democrat because I’m unwilling to accept that I am responsible for myself, my family, and my community.
Raising my children, their high school years in the early nineties, many parents expressed exactly as your aquaintence said.
Many parents shared that they DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT to influence their child to think any particular manner. They must be free to find and believe for themselves.
Of course it is ludricus for so many reasons forgetting that their teachers were more than happy to tell them how to think.
I am a Democrat because I likes free money.
I am a Democrat because I can speak fluent Austrian and name most of the 57 states. Oh, and because my wife is finally proud of her country, so much so that she exports the kids to Mexico for Spring Break.
He’s a democrat cause his momma was drunk for 9 months and then dropped him on his head.
I am a Democrat because the media tells me I am a homophobic racist if I wasn’t.
I am a Democrat because I had a lobotomy.
Best one yet!
I’m a Democrat, because my parents were, everyone I know is, and I don’t want to be different. Also, I don’t want to think about all that political crap. /s
I’m a demokrat because I’m stoopid, and I don’t know how to wipe my own a$$. The demokrats promiss that they will send over a gubment person to wipe my a$$ for me.
