A good story you can tell even the youngest child demonstrating the difference between a liberal Democrat and a conservative Republican.

I remember the time that Corliss, one of my daughter’s friends, told me that she wanted to be President one day. Both of her parents are liberal Democrats and were standing there with us. I asked, “Corliss, if you were President what would be the first thing you would do?”

Corliss replied, “I would give houses to all the homeless people.”

“Wow, what a worthy goal you have there, Corliss.” I told her, “You don’t have to wait until you are President to do that, you can come over to my house and clean up all the dog poop in the back yard and I will pay you $5. Then we can go over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $5 to use toward a new house.”

Corliss, who was about 4, thought that over for a second, while her mom looked at me. Finally, Corliss replied, “Why doesn’t the homeless guy come over and clean up the dog poop and you can pay him the $5?”

Welcome to the Republican Party, Corliss!
