Sometimes you can find a shred of humanity and people can surprise you

My brother is a republican. We were having dinner recently and just talking about things in general.

He said he was at the convenience store/gas station and there was a woman "who must have had 6 kids under the age of 10" in her car.

Now...knowing his politics...I could just IMAGINE where this was going. But I kept listening.


He said she approached him and asked him for $10. She said her husband was beating her and she didn't have enough gas to make it to her mom's house.

I asked him what he did. He replied "What was I supposed to do?"



"I filled up her tank and gave her $20 and wished her Good Luck".

I told him he had the makings of a good Democrat.:D

1. Things look very different, up close and personal

Rhetoric and ideology go by the wayside in a puff of smoke.

3. Give your brother a "thank you" for me. He doesn't sound like most of

the republicans that i know...z

4. And a thank-you from me, too!

If more GOP-ers were like that, I might not have such a problem with them.

5. I did. That is how we were raised.

To help people. Even the ideological brainwashing hasn't thrown THAT trait off kilter,lol.
