Confused? I am!

I received this confusing article from my good friend and long time hunting buddy, Frank Theising. Frank is a patriot serving our country in the U.S. military. He sent me this article that I wish to share with you. Frank and I spent many wonderful days hunting where I would teach Frank how to hunt, or was it the other way around?

With the Democratic convention on TV, I get confused these days. The article is from Christopher Erpelding, living in Kodiak, Alaska.

Dear Friends,

The attached article is about a man that sounds confused. The life of a politician can be hard and confusing.

Can you guess who this is?

I want to be the next President of the United States.

I was against the first Iraq war, I am against the second Iraq war, but I voted for it. Now I'm against it but I was for it. I support the UN. I'm against terrorism and against the Iraq war. But I voted for the Iraq War. So, I voted against the first war and supported the second war, wait ...

I'm against gay marriage but for gay unions. I support gays but think the San Francisco mayor is wrong. I support gay marriages. No, wait, gay unions.

I'm Catholic. Wait, I'm Jewish. My dad was Jewish. But I was raised Catholic. What am I? I don't want to confuse people.

I am for abortions, but wait, I'm Catholic, and Catholics are pro-life. But I might consider putting pro-life judges in office, but I'm not sure. I do know I voted for a pro-life judge, but I stated that it was a mistake.

I went to Vietnam. But I was against Vietnam. I testified against fellow US troops in Vietnam, threw my medals away and led others to do the same. But I am a war hero. Against the war.

I stated I threw my medals away then I threw my ribbons away. I then revealed that I threw my ribbons away but not my medals, then lately I stated that I threw someone else's medals away and never threw anything of mine away.

I believe ribbons and medals aren't the same thing. Medals come with ribbons, so now I believe that ribbons and medals are the same thing besides the fact that ribbons are cloth and medals are metal.

I wrote a book that pictured the U.S. flag upside-down on its cover. But now I fly and campaign in a plane with a large flag right-side up on it. But sometimes, we fly upside-down for fun.

The president of the Palestinians is a hero and a statesman. The Israelis shouldn't kill Palestinian terrorists, but they should stop terrorism. The president of the Palestinians is a terrorist supporter. I support Mideast peace.

I am for the common man, unlike the current president. I am against the rich. But my family is worth 300 million dollars, has a jet and many SUVs. I am the common man.

I am against sending jobs overseas. My wife is an heiress, and the business that she is an heiress to has most of its factories offshore. I am against rewarding companies for exporting jobs as long as it is not the company that she is an heiress of.

I own $1 million in Wal-Mart stock. I believe Wal-Mart is evil by driving small business owners out of town. I am a capitalist and I own part of Wal-Mart but I am a good guy for small corporate America.

I own SUVs when I talk to my followers in Detroit, Mich. My wife owns SUVs and I don't, when I talk to tree-hugging followers. I have a campaign jet that gets 1/3 mpg, which is great fuel efficiency.

I am against making military service an issue in presidential elections. I defended a draft dodger and stated that all serve in their own capacity whether they draft dodge or not. Did I mention, I served in Vietnam and am a hero? Are you questioning my patriotism? I served in Vietnam. My opponent didn't. I have three purple hearts! I am a hero. I am qualified to run this country since I served.

I could be the next President of the United States.

Can you guess who he is? Do we want this unstable man running our country?

Remember what the Bible says: "Where confusion and strife is, there is every evil work." And: "A double minded man is unstable in all of his ways." How about: "Their spiritual minds were seared with a hot iron, because they did not want to retain God in their knowledge."

Please have a conscience and vote for God fearing men and women.
