This has been around before but worth posting again because it is so true and it really bothers the libs.
#10. I v**e Democrat because I love the fact that I can now marry wh**ever I want. I've decided to marry my German shepherd.
#9. I v**e Democrat because I believe oil companies' profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene, but the government taxing the same gallon at 15% isn't.
#8. I v**e Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would.
#7. I v**e Democrat because Freedom of Speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.
#6. I v**e 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. I am also thankful that we have a 911 service that gets police to your home in order to identify your body after a home invasion.
#5. I v**e Democrat because I'm not concerned about millions of babies being aborted so long as we keep all death row inmates alive and comfy.
#4. I v**e Democrat because I think i*****l a***ns have a right to free health care, education, and Social Security benefits, and we should take away Social Security from those who paid into it.
#3. I v**e Democrat because I believe that businesses should not be allowed to make profits for themselves. They need to break even and give the rest away to the government for redistribution as the Democrat Party sees fit.
#2. I v**e Democrat because I believe liberal judges need to rewrite the Constitution every few days to suit fringe kooks who would never get their agendas past the v**ers.
... And, the #1 reason
I v**e Democrat is because I think it's better to pay $billions$ for oil to people who h**e us, but not drill our own because it might upset some endangered beetle, gopher, or fish here in America. We don't care about the beetles, gophers, or fish in those other
countries.
The best description of Obamacare so far: Remember when Nancy Pelosi said: "We have to pass it, to find out what's in it."
A physician called into a radio show and said: "That's the definition of a stool sample."

This is old hat. It's attributing a thought to someone you don't like, then chastising him for 'thinking' it. It's amusing. It's harmless. It's wrong. It's dishonest.
For example,
"And, the #1 reason
I v**e Democrat is because I think it's better to pay $billions$ for oil to people who h**e us, but not drill our own because it might upset some endangered beetle, gopher, or fish here in America. We don't care about the beetles, gophers, or fish in those other countries."
is silly, dishonest, and inaccurate. The reasons there is resistance to new drilling are numerous and, in my experence, have nothing to do with gophers, beetles, or fish. There is the earthquake issue in fracking, and tap water you can't drink but you can set aflame, and the risk to the water supply caused by pumping millions and millions of toxic brew possibly into aquifers.
There is also the trensportation of oil issue, train fires burning for days in the countryside and in towns, unsafe and poorly designed railraod tank cars, pipeline failures assaulting the envoirnment and towns.
And there is the dreaded climate warming issue which thoughtful and informed people recognize, and the fact that we don't need more oil, we need less.
In other words, this piece misstates the issues, then laughs at them irresponsibly, denying their importance, encouraging ignorance and inaction.
Who could possible be in favor of that?
[Furthermore, posting past pieces just because they're 'making the rounds,' will get you compared to bcheary, which is reason enough to desist.]
