Non-Partisan Observations (We can all Agree on)

It's a strange and wonderful age we live in. Growing up, I thought that if you were a Christian, you voted a certain way and that was it. Except for the South, for some reason. I really don't remember why. Now, however, you can follow Christ and vote (dare I say it?) for the party of your choice (I couldn't say it).

This can cause many red-faced arguments and frequent cases of spirited arm waving* during times of fellowship**. That being the case, I came up with some great common ground topics for the sake of health and harmony. Feel free to steal them as needed.

1.George W. Bush is younger than his father.
Am I wrong?
2.Celebrities have a lot of money.
3. One bratwurst is plenty for one person per serving.
If you disagree, your eyes are bigger than your stomach and you will soon be proven wrong. Don't test wisdom and experience.
4.The environment has a lot of green in it.
5.Canned soup somehow tastes much better when cooked on a stove top than in a microwave. How is that possible? It's a mystery for the ages.
6. Batman would totally win against Superman in a fight.
I had to sneak that one in there.
7.Having just six items in a list looks evil. Seven looks much better.
That was a close one.

* Why do we do that, anyway? Do we think that will help us make our point? Are we waving magical "I will convince you" wands? Another mystery for the ages.
** "Fellowship" is Christianeze for "pizza party".
