Are you a Democrat?

Last night while watching a family movie, someone on the movie asked someone else, "Are you a democrat?" My boys were asking me what that meant. I was a senior in high school when a teacher asked the class that. I had NO idea what he was talking about. He told me there was no doubt in his mind what I was, but he would give us a quiz and let us decide based on the issues. That was what I did. I found a website that was D vs R. For family night, each boy got a piece of paper and pencil. Then I said, "write a one if you believe this (democratic view) and 2 if you believe this (republican view)." The whole time Carson was saying, "That is so stupid. Who would ever believe that! What! Women can kill babies in their bellies! Some lazy guy could live just like me if I work my butt off! Why should the government get to set prices, why not let people pay what they think is fair!" It was sooooooo funny. At one point I looked at Chet and said, "He is so a little Kimber!" We are both pretty hard core Republicans. Carson had 10/13 points of view Rep. Carter 9/13. Caden 11/13. Cael 9/13. I guess when you grow up with 2 pretty hard core Rep, you are destined to create some pretty hard core Rep boys. It was funny to hear their point of views on things. They were baffled that others live a certain way, very different from us. What I thought was very interesting too, I heard a couple of articles of faith repeated. As they thought about putting a 1 or 2, they would recite an article of faith and that gave them their answer. I sure do love seeing my boys grow and learn. We want to start teaching them the "issues" of the elections, both national and local.
