| Patriotism: Joe's or John's? |
Well, I am very excited. There is now a new test to prove my patriotism. All I have to do is vote to increase my taxes. I thought there was going to be so much more required of me. However, Joe Biden, with smile on face, assures me that all I have to do is gladly and willingly step up and pay more taxes.
I must confess that I have two small problems with his announcement. First, like me, Joe makes over $250,000 per year and he already pays less tax than I do. So, I am not sure he is qualified to lead this march on patriotism. Secondly, he is not in favor of allowing people who make less money than we do to have this opportunity to prove their patriotism. Somehow that sounds like classism and it appears a bit unfair. Good for me because I want to prove my patriotism. Bad for those poor souls who won't have the opportunity to prove their patriotism in the same fashion.
On the other hand, John McCain proves his patriotism the old fashion way and has the record to prove it. I think I will give him the clear edge on that subject. So, Joe versus John on patriotism clearly goes to John. I think I'll vote NO CHANGE on that subject.
