Joe gets up at 6 a.m. and fills his coffeepot with water to prepare
his morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some
tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards. With
his first swallow of water, he takes his daily medication. His
medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought
to ensure their safety and that they work as advertised. All but $10 of
his medications are paid for by his employer's medical plan because some
liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance
- now Joe gets it too. He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and
eggs. Joe's bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought
for laws to regulate the meat packing industry. In the morning shower,
Joe reaches for his shampoo. His bottle is properly labeled with each
ingredient and its amount in the total contents because some crybaby
liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and
how much it contained.
Joe dresses, walks outside and
takes a deep breath. The air he breathes is clean because some
environmentalist wacko liberal fought for the laws to stop industries
from polluting our air. He walks to the subway station for his
government-subsidized ride to work. It saves him considerable money in
parking and transportation fees because some fancy-pants liberal fought
for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the
opportunity to be a contributor.
Joe begins his work day.
He has a good job with excellent pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid
holidays and vacation because some lazy liberal union members fought
and died for these working standards. Joe's employer pays these
standards because Joe's employer doesn't want his employees to call the
union. If Joe is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed, he'll get a
worker compensation or unemployment check because some stupid liberal
didn't think he should lose his home because of his temporary
misfortune.
It's noontime and Joe needs to make a bank
deposit so he can pay some bills. Joe's deposit is federally insured by
the FDIC because some godless liberal wanted to protect Joe's money from
unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the Great
Depression. Joe has to pay his Fannie Mae-underwritten mortgage and his
below-market federal student loan because some elitist liberal decided
that Joe and the government would be better off if he was educated and
earned more money over his lifetime. Joe is home from work.
He
plans to visit his father this evening at his farm home in the country.
He gets in his car for the drive. His car is among the safest in the
world because some America-hating liberal fought for car safety
standards. He arrives at his boyhood home. His was the third generation
to live in the house financed by Farmers' Home Administration because
bankers didn't want to make rural loans. The house didn't have
electricity until some big-government liberal stuck his nose where it
didn't belong and demanded rural electrification.
He is
happy to see his father, who is now retired. His father lives on Social
Security and a union pension because some wine-drinking, cheese-eating
liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Joe wouldn't have to.
Joe
gets back in his car for the ride home, and turns on a radio talk show.
The radio host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are
good. He doesn't mention that the beloved Republicans have fought
against every protection and benefit Joe enjoys throughout his day. Joe
agrees: "We don't need those big-government liberals ruining our lives!
After all, I'm a self-made man who believes everyone should take care of
themselves, just like I have."
