I am sick of my repug friend using the word "liberal" like it's a dirty fucking word. I'm done. As much as she and I agree on very many things, I just can't handle it anymore.
This is a war about political affiliations. She believes in national health care; she is pro-choice; doesn't give a good flying fuck about gay marriage, but she still belives that Bush is right in the "war on terra."
I can never in my life remember our country being so polarized. "You're either with us or against us," seems to be the theme of the day for both parties.
Well, I'm with the Democrats, which means that I must hate republicans, because they hate us. Even the moderate repugs hate us. This dumb fucking woman actually agrees with what Rove said. Civil war anyone? It sure it is starting to feel that way with me. Thank you, George W. Fucking BushCo for tearing our country apart.
There is one point that I agree with her on: Both parties are so concentrated on calling each other out over what someone said that nothing is getting done. The great majority of the American public does not give a good flying fuck about what Rove said; about what Dubin said -- they don't even know what they said. But they do care about health care, social security, the war (invasion).
How the hell do we get on with the business of our country -- the things that most matter with Americans. Neither party is addressing these issues at that time, IMHO
