I don’t like to talk about political parties. It draws lines in the wrong places.
I like to talk about ideas and policies. Ideas and policies should be discussed on
their own merits apart from political parties and labels.
In less than two months, we are going to have another
election. If you watch television or
read newspapers, you can easily think that this election is and should be decided
on the basis of one issue: abortion.
I think we should take a broader look at what this election
is all about.
If you think babies are disposable like a litter of puppies
or kittens, when unborn children can be killed for any reason up until the time
they are born, then, by all means, yes, you need to vote Democratic. Republicans can’t always get the details
right, but they believe abortion cheapens human life, and they think our
society has enough of that.
In the last year, we have had 2 million people enter our
country illegally. Yes, many of them
claim to be refugees, but then they have been taught to say that, and practically
speaking, almost all illegal immigrants are here to stay. Sure, many of them are nice people. The problem is that we don’t know who’s
coming. No background checks, no medical
exams.
If you have a problem with any of this, you’re going to have
to vote Republican.
If you believe that a country has the responsibility to know
who is coming into it to live and whether they have any serious diseases or
evil intents, you’re going to have to vote Republican.
We are having the highest inflation in 40 years, due to our
government spending trillions of dollars it doesn’t have. We are also spending a trillion dollars a
year just to pay interest on our federal debt.
That is like burning a trillion dollars a year.
If you have a problem with that, you’re going to have to
vote Republican.
Our federal government is $31 trillion in debt, and that
debt is growing rapidly, and the government is not even trying to stop it.
If you have a problem with any of this, you’re going to have
to vote Republican.
Violent crime and general lawlessness is out of hand in our
country. Police are demoralized and
understaffed all across our country. Criminals
and other violent people are less worried about the repercussions of their
crimes.
If you have a problem with that, you’re going to have to
vote Republican.
The federal guidelines for sex education in our public schools
normalizes all sexual behavior and encourages your young children to question
and explore their sexual behavior and gender at the youngest ages. Schools and politicians want to facilitate
any gender transitioning and will do this without the knowledge and consent of
the student’s parents if necessary.
If you have a problem with schools sexualizing your
children, you’re going to have to vote Republican.
If you like the United States being energy independent, and
where we don’t have to buy energy from unfriendly or unreliable sources, and
heating, electricity, and gas prices being affordable, you’re going to have to
vote Republican.
If you are proud to be an American, if you think the United States
is the greatest country in the history of the world, if you believe in the American
Dream, you’re going to have to vote Republican.
If you believe that society should be color blind, that
people should be judged on the quality of their character and not the color of
their skin, then you’re going to have to vote Republican.
If you believe the best qualified people should get the job,
you going to have to vote Republican.
If you believe in God, the Ten Commandments as our rule of
life, if you believe our rights come from God, then you’re going to have to
vote Republican.
If you believe in the freedom of speech, where you are able
to express your opinions freely, where we can openly talk about touchy
subjects, where we can disagree and not be considered hateful, then you’re going
to have to vote Republican.
If you believe in the right to be armed, to protect your
life, your property, and your freedom, you’re going to have to vote Republican.
In Illinois, the state is essentially bankrupt. It is on a trajectory of exponentially
increasing debt due to the pension clause in the State Constitution. This will force every increasing tax burdens
to pay for this.
If you think this problem should be fixed, you’re going to
have to vote Republican.
If you live in Illinois, you will be asked to vote on a
Constitutional Amendment to support workers’ rights. What they’re not telling you is that this
Amendment was written primarily for government employees more than private
ones.
In Illinois, if you think politicians are enriching themselves
and using government workers to solidify their control by enriching them all at
taxpayer expense, then you’re going to have to vote Republican.
Years ago, choosing candidates to vote for was often a
difficult task. Politicians have made voting
a lot easier today.
