The Party of NO (27)

Democrats have been painting Republicans as the "Party of No" since PRESBO took office.

I don't want to defend Republicans. They've got enough party faithful and money to take care of themselves.

I would, however, like to consider for a moment who really is the "Party of No."

Consider that there is only one party who answers to all of the following questions with NO.

Can you defend yourself with a gun?

Can you prepare for your financial future (retirement)?

Can you decide whether you want health insurance and, if you choose yes, earn and save the appropriate amounts to afford it?

Can you get your own mortgage without government help?

Can you purchase a vehicle that is appropriate for your circumstances with respect to fuel economy and ability?

Can you be responsible for yourself?

I'm not saying Republicans are perfect, but the game is rigged, and we are all but forced to choose for one of the two major parties. For now, for me, Republicans are the lesser of two evils.
