Something insightful for election day

When I get stressed out and tired I tend to say, incredibly...ah....insightful little tidbits. Nathan was off on Friday and he and I were out running errands and talking about some political websites that were focusing so much on taxes and tax breaks. And while tax breaks are great, I honestly don't mind paying taxes. I expressed this to Nathan by saying,

"Really without taxes we would be driving on gravel roads, putting out fires with garden hoses, and we would have to shoot to kill......you know, because there would be no cops."

Direct quote Teresa-ism. I bet you just felt yourself drop a few IQ points.

I think that's very smart. I know it's not popular to say, but we get off so easy on taxes here in MO and I'm sure that's always a good thing.

Mrs. B,

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but I don't agree. I think that their are much bigger issues at hand.

Pamela,
You may use it for your myspace quote.
