LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Here is what Republicans believe in

Published 9:50 am Monday, August 29, 2022

A couple of weeks ago our illustrious President Joe Biden made a comment I just had to respond to.

If you disagree, please let me hear from you.

Joe Biden said to his audience, “Only Democrats know what they believe in and the Republicans have no idea what, if anything, they believe in.”

Well, I sat back and decided I would make a list of what we believe in and disapprove of.

I and other Republicans believe in: The Constitution; stopping the border crises; stopping inflation; less government control; fixing the economy; stopping riots; lowering crime; innovation; freedom of speech; less censorship; taking down multimedia oligarchy; the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness; stopping lockdowns; voter ID; shrinking the IRS; less taxes; keeping our 2nd Amendment rights; accountability of all government officials; and term limits.

I disapprove of adding 87,000 new IRS agents and giving each one a handgun and ammunition.

I disapprove of abortions unless it threatens the life of the mother, or the child would have no chance to live if allowed to mature for the full nine months.

I disapprove of the working person having to pay for college debt for others. Look at all of the private colleges and universities, they have in many cases millions of dollars in trust accounts that could be used to help students in need.

We also believe all candidates at least try to do what they promised their constituents they would do if elected.

To end on a light note, a wise man once said, “You can’t fix stupid, but you can vote them out of office.”

Remember to vote Nov. 8.
