I like the guy. Can't help myself.

Don't let it be said that I despise all Republicans. I have a favorite Republican. One that I respect. He's my son-in-law, Bob. He's a funny Republican. Makes me laugh. He would make a good court jester. Bob has a sense of humor. A saving grace for any Republican. Most Republicans grimace rather than smile. But Bob genuinely laughs. Granted, at me. Because I'm a socialist and communist sympathizer. I bring balance and intelligence to the family. I love to engage Bob in political talk. To determine where Bob went wrong. He's really gotta be a smart guy. After all, he married my daughter. So there's hope for Bob. Though I have to admit that my daughter has Republican leanings, too. But she's not as politically avid as Bob. I thought that maybe Bob would see the light after listening to the Republican aspirants for president. That he would write them all off. And maybe not go to the polls at all come November. But turns out that Bob thinks Obama is the worst president we've ever had. And that any Republican would be better. Of course, that scares me. The very thought that a Republican is a Republican is a Republican. But I look at it another way. Bob is Bob is Bob. And I like the guy. Can't help myself. --Jim Broede
