Here are the 10 top reasons a person votes for Democrats. If you have a friend, or friends who vote for Democrats, but can’t explain why they vote that way, pass this list on to them and they will be sure to find the reason why.
10. I vote 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.
9. I vote Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would.
8. I vote Democrat because freedom of speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.
7. I vote Democrat because I’m way too irresponsible to own a gun, and I know that my local police are all I need to protect me from murderers and thieves.
6. I vote 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.
5. I vote Democrat because I’m not concerned about the slaughter of millions of babies through abortion so long as we keep all death row inmates alive.
4. I vote Democrat because I think illegal aliens have a right to free health care, education, and Social Security benefits.
3. I vote Democrat because I believe that businesses should not be allowed to make profits for themselves. They need to break even and give the rest to the government for redistribution.
2. I vote Democrat because I believe liberal judges need to rewrite the Constitution every few days to suit some fringe kooks who would never get their agendas past the voters.
And the number one reason to vote Democrat….
I guess I think Communism worked so well in the Soviet Union.
Here are the 10 top reasons a person votes for Republicans. If you have a friend, or friends who vote for Republicans, but can’t explain why they vote that way, pass this list on to them and they will be sure to find the reason why.
10. I vote Republican because I believe it is wonderful for oil companies’ to pollute the ocean with oil that they never owned, let the government give them special exceptions from laws, and have people and tax payers pay for the environmental damage but let the companies keep the profits.
9. I vote Republican because I believe the government owe me Social Security and medicare and should protect my food, environment, and quality of drugs, but I should not have to pay for it.
8. I vote Republican because freedom of speech is fine as long the speech matches my beliefs.
7. I vote Republican because millions of people ought to have the right to carry guns to settle fights and express their anger or abuse their children and spouses any time of day.
6. I vote Republican because I believe that we should ignore the consensus results from smart and capable scientists worldwide regarding climate change and instead accept the word of non-scientists, scientists paid by businesses, and businesses themselves who have a stake in being the source of the pollution or who will make less money if we address climate change.
5. I vote Republican because I’m happy about having the government intrude in the private decisions of mothers and doctors regarding their bodies, health, and birth. I also think the government, not God, should have the right to take the life of its citizens.
4. I vote Republican because I think illegal aliens should pay taxes when they work in America, but should not get any benefits such as health care, education, and Social Security benefits.
3. I vote Republican because I believe that banks and businesses should be self regulating and make as much money as possible because bankers and Wall Street folks would never take unearned bonuses or would ever try to cheat their customers from their homes and money.
2. I vote Republican because I believe conservative judges need to retain the laws and beliefs created at a time when blacks were non-humans and women were incapable of making any reasonable decisions such as voting.
And the number one reason to vote Republican….
I guess I think Fascism worked so well in Germany or the Inquisition in Europe.
Great comeback! so now, where can we agree?
Look at number 4 – illegal aliens are not paying taxes and are getting all the benifits you listed. I think I’ll vote Republican.
“5. I vote Republican because I’m happy about having the government intrude in the private decisions of mothers and doctors regarding their bodies, health…”
“Except I support intruding when Obamacare forces them to buy health insurance.”
Um dude, illegal aliens do NOT collect social security or Medicare. At BEST they can get life saving EMERGENCY medical treatment. You don’t oppose that do you? Because you would have to be the lowest of low life scum to think that someone deserved to die because they don’t have the correct “paperwork”.
Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program gives illegals Social Security: http://www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/deferred_action.pdf
Deferred action is intended for undocumented YOUTH. It’s for those immigrants that were brought over when they were children or babies. It’s also been used for some foreign students that were impacted by Hurricane Katrina. In other words IT”S FOR SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES. You are insinuating that anyone who can manage to sneak across the border can head directly for their nearest SS Admin office and collect a check and that simply isn’t true.
“The Senate voted yesterday to allow illegal aliens to collect Social Security benefits based on past illegal employment — even if the job was obtained through forged or stolen documents.”

It still doesn’t support your argument. You said: “illegal aliens are not paying taxes and are getting all the benefits you listed.”
That senate resolution refers to illegals THAT ARE PAYING INTO SS AND MEDICARE.
I would amend my argument to say that the vast MAJORITY of illegals do not collect SS and Medicare. Yes there are exceptions but keep in mind that there are also plenty of home grown ‘mericans that are collecting SS and Medicare fraudulently.
You seem to like leaving the impression that people are falling across the border in waves and are being met with a check for federal benefits and it just ain’t true bro.
You are making a straw man argument. I did not write, “illegal aliens are not paying taxes and are getting all the benefits you listed.”
I posted:
“I vote Democrat because I think illegal aliens have a right to free health care, education, and Social Security benefits.”
I believe that is the agenda of the leadership of the Dem party.
