Monroe County Fair '09

Just thought I'd mention a few of the things I saw at the Monroe County Fair last night:

* A stand for the Monroe County TEA Party
* The Republican party stand with a sign saying "Say no to socialized medicine"
* A "Christians for Life" stand with models of fœtuses at various stages
* A test your Bible knowledge electronic quiz
* The American Legion giving out stationary with the Pledge of Allegiance on it. Cindy took one that said "Proud to be an American". I opted for one with all the presidents on it (it was up to date).
* Overheard a kid making a (root)beer joke with his grandmother. Her reply was, "If your parents let you do that, they must be more liberal than Obama!"

Not socialised medicine!

Did they give reasons why?

I didn't ask. I wanted to enjoy the evening.

But know that even some Democrats are against it. It's not a fringe position here.
