Free stuff ~ By Victoria Jackson

After I got kicked out of Olive Garden, my mom said, "We are so tired of hearing about Obama, the Muslim, the communist, the birth … we have heard it for five years now and we are sick of it."

Me: (Five years?) "Um, yeah, me too."

I started thinking. If you are in a burning building, when do you quit screaming "FIRE!"? When everyone is safe.

That's why I must keep bothering my friends and neighbors with horrible facts. Sorry.
Victoria says it all in her conclusion: "Liberals say they care, but they keep them there. We say we care, and we want them outta there! I'd rather be a conservative and help the poor get rich!"

In this column, Victoria explores the art of persuasion, as in trying to explain to somebody why liberalism, progressivism, socialism, and communism don't work.  For an example of her "lack" of having the "gift of the art of persuasion" that she gives us, she was talking to a young woman - an obvious idiot - who voted for Obama and planned to again in 2012, and Victoria "tried to give her a crash course on capitalism / socialism / communism to no avail." But, I have to tell Victoria that it seems that she DOES have the "gift," and I believe that you will agree after you read this very persuasive column, "Free Stuff." Victoria firmly believes that we need a Republican candidate who does have the gift, "someone like Reagan, because there are a lot of dumb people out there who need a calm, coherent, persuasive, good communicator who doesn't get frustrated by idiots."

Oh, by the way, speaking of the Gipper... HAPPY 100TH BIRTHDAY, RONALD REAGAN! I know that Ronald would be proud of Victoria Jackson.

Walking the streets of San Juan for my first time, I try to think up adjectives for my postcard. It looks "beat up," poor, tired and dirty … bruised. Orwellian. What America will look like if Obama wins in 2012. I went to the Starbuck's Internet Cafe and couldn't get a connection. The barista told me, "Unfortunately, a man died today and fell into the Internet and broke it, so no one can get service. It's in the newspaper. I'm sorry." I looked at my friend Larry. After a long moment of confusion, we burst out laughing. I still don't understand that sentence.

I'm scared and saddened that there are still Americans who don't understand who is running our government and what their goals are.

I try to educate my friends and family, but my enthusiasm sometimes gets in the way. I do not have the gift of "the art of persuasion."

I got kicked out of Olive Garden this week.

I was at my friend's 80th birthday party, and I innocently invited her grand-niece to my next W.I.N. meeting. Niece said she couldn't come to my house to pray for our country because she voted for Obama and is voting for Obama in 2012. Oh. OK. I was dying of curiosity and asked her why she voted for him. Her reasons:

1)  "Change"
2)  He's ending the war, someday
3)  He loves his daughters
4)  He's a "strong" leader
5)  He gives me "free stuff"

I tried to give her a crash course on capitalism / socialism / communism to no avail. She gets "free stuff!" She doesn't care where it comes from or what the big picture is.

She said, "What's wrong with communism? Everyone should be equal." My heart rate quickened. My blood pressure shot up. Everyone is created equal, but everyone doesn't end up equal because of the choices they make. Some good, some bad. Why should I be punished for her bad choices? When she said that "Republicans only care about themselves," I almost exploded. When she said I wouldn't understand because I'm a "movie star" I almost stabbed my eyes out with my fork. I couldn't find it in myself to scream out, "My mind-numbingly boring waitress-typist-file-clerk-gym-coach jobs also supported you! Not just my TV jobs! You idiot! You should be thanking me!"

What made someone ask me to leave was when I was trying to explain abortion to this Obama-lover. I told her that Obama voted not only for "partial-birth abortion," which is cracking the skull of a baby and sucking it's brain out, but that he promoted a law that says if a baby accidentally survives an abortion it should be killed. She said, "Where did you hear that?"

Me: "It's public record. The Internet."

Her: (condescending) "Oh, come on now – you believe the Internet?! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

I then pointed to a stranger at the next table and said, "Freedom? I should have the freedom to kill her?" I was trying to explain that a baby has the same rights as the stranger sitting next to me … but I guess it all went wrong.

I do not have the gift of "the art of persuasion." Let's hope we can find a Republican candidate who does, someone like Reagan, because there are a lot of dumb people out there who need a calm, coherent, persuasive, good communicator who doesn't get frustrated by idiots.
