Monday

when you get something good from a Democrat,
and never got anything good from a Republican,
you'd still vote against your own best interests...

and then, when the Republicans do what they've
always done -- take from the poor and give to
the rich...

why you'd complain abut what you voted for.

I know we already know the answer, but it
still bothers me.
