Making Conservatives
So we're watching the local evening news tonight before trick or treating.
I'm not really paying attention, but my 3 1/2 year old old sees a Lois Murphy (D) ad attacking incumbent Jim Gerlach.
She says "Daddy, Lois Murphy has a dirty little secret."
"What?"
"She has a dirty secret. What is it?"
I have no idea what she's talking about.
But now I do.
I found the NRCC ad on YouTube.
"Veronica, I found out what Lois Murphy's dirty little secret is."
"What is it?"
"She wants to raise daddy's taxes."
"....."
"Raise daddy's taxes."
"What are taxes?"
"If she gets her way, we'll have less money. Less for clothes, less for toys, less for stuff."
*an astonished sigh*
Another conservative cemented.
I'm working on teaching her that "Republicans cut taxes and kill terrorists."
She's not homeschooled (no plans to), but you can see why liberals hate homeschooling.

Oh, Alex ... I love you. Really, I mean it in a sort of platonic non-threatening sort of way. Ahem ... yes. Anyways, I've conditioned my kids to call a spade a spade when I ask them to eat their veggies. When they balk, I inquire 'What are you? Some sort of commie!?' They reply, 'No, youre a dummy-democrat-head!'
Ahhh, the spite is tangible.
