How Mitt Romney Won My Vote

I have a very good friend who is a Democrat through and through. When I ask her how she thinks we are going to pay for all the things the Democrats promise when we keep taking more from the economy and using it to fund an ever growing Government her instant response is, "I guess you believe in Let Them Eat Cake?" Karl Marx whether he really believed what he said or not, had an amazing impact on people's minds. His ideology that you can somehow eat the Goose that Lays the Golden Eggs and continue to gather eggs still rings in the minds of the unwitting today. No nation in the history of the world has ever taxed it's way or spent it's way to prosperity and we won't be the first.

My instant response to your friend's question is, "One Cannot Have Their Cake and Eat it, too, So I Believe in Let Them Pay for the Cake They Eat."

HaHaHa. Love it. Perfect response.

Note: The author would like to thank the Psalmist, Switchfoot, and Samwise for inspiring this column.

Back in May of 1999, I made a decision to leave the Democratic Party. It was an easy decision. I had been a Democrat for 11 years. I voted for Dukakis when I was a committed leftist. But, later, when I became a pro-life conservative, there was no room for me in the party. So I became a Republican and also joined the NRA. I've been a straight shooter ever since. Excuse me if that last line sounded heterosexist. I’m a work in regress....
