I'm a dork, but I really enjoyed reading this article, "Why People Vote Republican."
It's kind of long, but enjoyable.
Why can felons run for Senate, but felons cannot vote? (Stevens)
Why can a cowboy invade sovereign nations, 'in the name of Jesus;' but Clinton faced impeachment for lying about oral sex? In terms of morality, the invading sovereign nations is more offensive (to me) because it puts more people at risk and isn't a personal issue. It's a public issue that puts nations at risk. Then again, I realize that we all have our own morality thresholds. Bush lies to the entire world about public policy matters in which people die (have you read the Senates report proving this to be factual?) Clinton lies about his sex life in which a hussy gets called out and his wife is pained - but nobody dies.
What if the Obamas had paraded five children across the stage, including
a three month old infant and an unwed, pregnant teenage daughter?
What if John McCain was a former president of the Harvard Law Review?
What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating class?
What if McCain had only married once, and Obama was a divorcee?
What if Obama was the candidate who left his first wife after a severe
disfiguring car accident, when she no longer measured up to his standards?
What if Obama had met his second wife in a bar and had a long affair while
he was still married?
What if Michelle Obama was the wife who not only became addicted to pain
killers but also acquired them illegally through her charitable organization?
What if Cindy McCain graduated from Harvard?
What if Obama had been a member of the Keating Five?
(The Keating Five were five United States Senators accused of corruption
in 1989, igniting a major political scandal as part of the larger Savings
and Loan crisis of the late 1980s and early 1990s).
What if McCain was a charismatic, eloquent speaker?
What if Obama couldn't read from a teleprompter?
What if Obama was the one who had military experience that included
discipline problems and a record of crashing three planes?
What if Obama was the one who was known to display publicly, on many
occasions, a serious anger management problem?
What if Michelle Obama's family had made their money from beer distribution?
