Subject: 23 Steps to Becoming a good Democrat


Virtually anyone can be a Democrat. Just simply quit thinking (about it) and  vote that way. If you want to be a GOOD Democrat, however, there are some
prerequisites you must have first. Compare them below and see how you  rate...

1. You have to believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of Federal  funding. 

2. You have to believe that the same school system that can't teach 3rd  graders how to read is somehow the best qualified to teach those same kids  all about sex. 

3. You have to believe that guns, in the hands of law-abiding Americans, are  more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology, in the hands of  Chinese communists. 

4. You have to believe that there was no art before Federal funding. 

5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by  cyclical, documented changes in the earth's climate, and more affected by  Americans driving SUVs'! 

6. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial but being homosexual  is natural. 

7. You have to be against capital punishment but support abortion on demand.

8. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments  create prosperity. 

9. You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but loony  activists from Seattle do. 

10. You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually  doing something to earn it. 

11. You have to believe the U.S. military, not evil, tyrannical regimes,  start wars. 

12. You have to believe the NRA is bad, because it supports certain parts of  the Constitution, while the ACLU is good, because it supports certain parts
of the constitution. 

13. You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high. 

14. You have to believe that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinem are more important to American history than George Washington, Abraham Lincoln,  Thomas Jefferson, General Robert E. Lee or Thomas Edison. 

15. You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial  quotas and set-asides are not. 

16. You have to believe Hillary Clinton is all about "progress" and not  power. She just wants to help us out of the archaic system of governing that  we've been subjected to since our founding.
 
17. You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked  anywhere it's been tried, is because the right people haven't been in  charge.
 
18. You have to believe Republicans telling the truth belong in jail, but a  cheat, liar and sex offender belonged in the White House and you would vote  him back in there in a New York minute (if you could).
 
19. You have to believe that homosexual parades displaying drag,  transvestites and beastiality should be constitutionally protected and that  crosses on public stationary and manger scenes at Christmas should be  illegal.
 
20. You have to believe that illegal Democrat Party funding by the Chinese  is somehow in the best interest of the United States.
 
21. You have to believe that the vociferous minorities who protest against  prayer and saluting the flag in school, the 10 commandments in court, have  far more rights than the majority who believe in God and country and want  these values to be instilled in our young children.
 
 22. You have to believe that gay marriage is natural and that trying to  protect traditional marriage is a political statement made by right-wing  Christians.

23. You have to believe that AIDS is the greatest epidemic of the 21st  century.



If you are locked in solidly to most of these beliefs - you're gonna be a  big asset to John Kerry.
