The challenge of family spats over politics is common enough to warrant
an appearance in "Dear Prudence," a manners and morality advice column
at Slate.com
"My family members are staunch Democrats and love to bad-mouth
Republicans every time the conversation turns to politics. This is
heartbreaking, because I myself am a secret Republican. My mom already
knows that I'm in love with a Republican, and she won't stop condemning
him behind his back for his beliefs, calling him names like 'right-wing
whack job' and 'little lord Republiroy,' " wrote one teenager this week.
"Dear Republican," came the reply from columnist Emily Yoffe. "Start
with your mother and tell her you thought one essential precept of the
Democratic Party's principles is that all people deserve to be treated
with respect, whatever their race, creed, or stature. Explain that if
your family thinks its political views give them a claim to moral
superiority, they undercut it every time one of them ridicules your
boyfriend for his beliefs. Let her know her insults aren't changing your
feelings for him - or your own beliefs - they're only causing a breach
between the two of you."
--
It is simply breathtaking to watch the glee and abandon with which
the liberal media and the Angry Left have been attempting to turn
our military victory in Iraq into a second Vietnam quagmire. Too bad
for them, it's failing. |

Like most Repugs you are Ignorant and can't see the impending disaster
staring you in the face. Probably believe in the invisible sky pixie
too, the true mark of an ignoramus! |

the high cost of the war is lie? or are you suggesting that we have
been engaging in 5 years of continuous victory? |

of course, you're the one who posted the other day elsewhere re "the
fact that I don't buy your numbers for a minute" in reply to my post
of the well established and often referenced facts that the US owns 3%
of the world's oil and uses 25% of the world's oil consumption. so we
already know
1) that your concept of truth vs lie is simply a function of whether
something lines up with your partisan preconceived fantasies and not
any external reality,
2) that you won't check to see if you're wrong (for obvious reasons);
and
3) that you think "the fact" of your belief or not is as important as
any actual fact which is external to your skull. |
