I left the Democrat party back in the 1980’s for three reasons: 1–I thought they were more interested in deception than debate.  2–I witnessed corruption in the labor union that destroyed the Rath Packing Company costing me and my father our jobs (and his pension).  3–I found that the Republican party positions lined up better with the Bible. All three of these problems have only gotten worse since then, so with the election approaching I thought it would be a good time to share with you my 10 reasons why no one (especially Christians) should have anything to do with the 2018 democrat party.

Before I start, let me just say that I am not talking here about my hard-working, God-fearing, patriotic, slightly liberal friends and family members.  I am talking about what has become of your political party.  My hope is that you will take a closer look and come to the same conclusion I did.

10–Extreme positions  Did you know that Wednesday is “national pronoun day”? And in parts of New York, government employees can be fined for using the “wrong” pronoun to describe some one? Did you know in California they are passing laws that allow persecution of Christians and attempt to control what a pastor can and cannot preach about?  The democrat party is becoming dangerous as their leaders fail to denounce violence and actually encourage the harassment of those with opposing views.  They have a stated goal of impeaching Trump – not sure how or why. They want to roll back the tax cuts that have created a great economy. They favor socialized medicine, want to abolish ICE, and applaud Cuomo for saying that “America was never that great.”  Most Americans do not agree with any of this.

9–No Fun  Democrats are quickly sucking the fun out of life and politics. They reek havoc everywhere they go and have created a politically correct society of “false outrage.” Life has become a contest to see what liberal can be the most offended, and a race to see how fast the media can turn that offense into a reason to attack conservatives and all they stand for.  It doesn’t have to be like this, it’s exhausting.

8–The Constitution  If you have a problem with this document you have no business being in American politics.  Every civil servant takes an oath to preserve and defend it and nearly all democrats (and some republicans) now ignore that oath. It is very revealing that power obsessed liberals can’t stand our founding document since one of it’s functions is to hinder the power obsessed. A judge that warns that the people are giving judges more power than the constitution allows is a good judge (Scalia).  A president that complains that the constitution hinders his ability to get things done is a bad president (Obama).

7–Capitalism  Democrats feel the need to constantly bash the system that makes America great!  It’s like they don’t understand that it is capitalism that provides all the money they need for the crazy, unnecessary liberal programs that they want us to pay for. If a person works hard and becomes wealthy, democrats have to realize 2 things: The first is that it is none of your business! And secondly, Them getting wealthy does not mean that some one else then needs to be poor. It’s like they see the world as a big pie and if rich people take a piece others will starve.  No!  Capitalism creates more pies!

6–Abortion  We can argue amongst ourselves all day (and we do) about when life begins, but as far as I am concerned there are only two questions to be asked.  First, when do you think that God says that is a baby?  And secondly, what does it say about us that we continue to allow this?

Now, before I get to part two, I want to mention something from the news this week that exposes liberal abuse. Kanye West has been pummeled all week by all the lefty networks simply because he is asking the black community to take a serious look at Donald Trump and his policies. Why is that?  Because the Democrat party can’t afford to lose any black voters, and Kanye West is now becoming a serious threat to them.  Now he was a hero to them when he criticized George Bush but that was before.  Democrats don’t care about what is best for the black community, they only care about getting back into power!  The truth is that Kanye West has done more for minorities in the last few months than Obama did in his 8 years as president.
