I haven't kept up with this blog within the last year or so, although I do plan to start posting a bit more during the next few years, but I will take a moment to remind everyone to vote on this very important Election Day. Locally, there are generally both Republicans and Democrats who are capable of doing a good job. However, in general, both for Gubernatorial elections and U.S. Congress, I HIGHLY recommend voting Republican.
If you think that Joe Biden and the Democrats have done a great job during the last two years while in control of the House, Senate, and Presidency, then by all means, vote Democrat. If you think the economy is in better shape, our standing in the world has improved, or any number of important things are better off than they were two years ago, go blue. If you believe that voting for a Republican is bad because some Republicans questioned oddities about the last election (and some even suggested that Joe Biden didn't really win, which the majority of Republicans do not believe to be the case), and that is a threat to Democracy (unlike when Democrats previously suggested that Donald Trump was an illegitimate President, Stacey Abrams was actually elected Governor of Georgia, etc.), then by all means, pull that lever for the Donkey.
However, if you believe that things have gotten worse during the last two years, that inflation is running rampant, that we are in a recession, that we are clueless on foreign policy, and that those in power are lying to us and attempting to have a different set of rules for themselves than for those they oppose politically, then vote Republican. Are you angry about how the way in which the very legitimate Hunter Biden story was blocked right before the last Presidential election? Are you tired of being called a bigot because you don't think it's a great idea for children to get life-altering "gender-affirming" medical care? Are you tired of being told that you are a terrible person if you believe that people should be able to choose whether or not they wear a mask or get a Covid vaccine? Does it bother you when you are shut down for speaking truth that goes against the Leftist narrative? Do you disagree that sensible voting laws equate to "Jim Crow on steroids"? Do you think that President Trump's policies were generally pretty good even if the man himself is flawed? If so, vote red. You can remain friends with people who vote the other way, even if many of them no longer want to be friends with you. It's morally right to be against the murder of babies. It's not racist to be in favor of stronger borders. It's important to uphold the Second Amendment. Pull that lever for the Elephant. The Elephant stands for freedom.
I could write an entire book on the lies that Democrats have been telling over the last several years and how far left most of them have gone. Maybe I will one day. For now, I just encourage you to get out there and vote. I am hoping for a red storm. I am looking for a crimson tide. And I'm not talking about college sports either. ROLL TIDE!
