I like simple and quick explanations.  This video fits those parameters for me!

Any of my democrat/liberal/obama fan readers that have any comments... by all means, please do!

Why I'm Voting Democrat (i.e. Socialist)

I'm voting Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would.

I'm voting Democrat because freedom of speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.

I'm voting Democrat because when we pull out of Iraq I trust that the bad guys will stop what they're doing because they now think we're good people.

I'm voting 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.

I'm voting Democrat because I'm not concerned about the slaughter of millions of babies so long as we keep all death row inmates alive.

I'm voting Democrat because I believe that business should not be allowed to make profits for themselves. They just  need to break even and give the rest away to the government for redistribution as THEY see fit.

I'm voting Democrat because I believe three or four pointy headed elitist liberals need to rewrite the Constitution every few days to suit some fringe kooks who would NEVER get their agendas past the voters.

I'm voting Democrat because I believe that when the terrorists don't have to hide from us over there, and when they come over here I don't want to have any guns in the house to fight them off with.

I'm voting Democrat because I love the fact that I can now marry whatever I want. I've decided to marry my horse.

I'm voting 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.

Makes ya wonder why anyone would EVER vote Republican, now doesn't it?

I've seen a lot of good videos online lately, but this one was too good to not pass along.  What I love is that it isn't a paid ad - this is a soldier doing this with his own time, to send his own message out.

God Bless America

As I read the Book of Mormon I find it interesting the instances where there is a wayward child and in their lowest moment they recall "the things my father taught me in my youth."  Being a father now this stands out to me more.  I looked up "father" in the index in the Book of Mormon and found it interesting that the faith of nations depended largely on their father's.

I didn't happen to look up any references in the Bible, but I am sure that they are there as well.  It's sad to me that people take parenthood so lightly.  There are so many homes where a mother and father are not both present.  It's almost socially acceptable now for a man to leave his pregnant partner because he doesn't want to be 'tied down'.  We are creating the next generation.  Parent's need to step up to the plate so that we can make this a better place.

If you want to truly make a difference in the world, be a good parent.
