Birth of a Conservative

Have I told you how smart my boy is?  My mini-Darc?  Surely I have by now!  I know I mentioned his comment about adding unnecessary words in sentences.  Know what he said yesterday?

He was watching some show on TV, a kid show but I don’t know which one.  Anyway, the characters were doing something, a piñata I think.  One of them broke it, and the other characters scattered to grab the prizes.  My son, the capitalist, commented, “Why should the rest of them get anything?  They didn’t do anything to deserve all that stuff.” 

Now, he’s never been to a piñata party so he doesn’t understand how it’s played – one day he will understand so I’m not worried about that.  The thing that pleased me so much was the fact that he grasped the concept of a hand-out and it offended him.  In his mind, the one that broke the piñata should have gotten the prizes because he’d done the work to earn them, and the other characters had no right to just run up and take everything from him.  It offended his sensibilities that others simply took what they hadn’t earned.  For a kid who’s never had to earn much of anything, this amazes me.  The most he’s ever had to earn was a new game for the game system, and he had to earn it by trying new foods, not by cleaning his room or anything like that.  Hopefully, in a dozen years or so this will translate into him not calling home every month from college asking for more money, but simply to say hi. 

One of the things that pleases me most about this is that we don’t sit around talking politics all the time in our home for him to pick up on this kind of thing.  It’s just his nature.

Conservative and Liberal

Here’s a tease to inspire you to click the link below.  It’s an insightful little list to help clarify the differences between parties. 

Conservatives and liberals approach almost every issue with completely different philosophies, underlying assumptions, and methods. That’s why it’s so hard to find genuine compromise between conservatism and liberalism — because not only are liberals almost always wrong, their solutions almost always make things worse.
With that in mind, let me take a few moments to explain some of the key differences between liberals and conservative to you.

Bob Parks on Racism

I’ve been following Bob Parks over at Black & Right for a while now, and I love what this man has to say.  I wish I lived in MA so I could vote for him.  Here’s an excerpt from one of his articles, and I strongly recommend you hop over to read it in its entirety.  Why America Will Be Racist On 11/4

“What the Reuters story leaves out is the deliberate revision of history perpetrated by Democrats to their present day political advantage. Blacks proudly (and inaccurately) link Republicans to the Ku Klux Klan, and many of the ugly chapters of our history where they were oppressed and terrorized legally.

I say deliberately, and again provide as proof the Democrat Party’s own website that conveniently omits almost 100 years of their complicity in murderous racism in America. They, to this day, claim to be the champion of civil rights, repeating this lie to children in schools and black activists, while they lie to an entire people about their history.”

Zo Knows!

Zo has a LOT to say before the election!  This man GETS it!  And he is able to SAY it like it needs to be said.  He pulls no punches, and man, if he was running for office, he’d have my vote in a heartbeat.  Go ZO!
