Get “right,” or get “left.” Behind!
Every time I get a chance, I find out what someone’s political stance’s are. Not to argue, or simply tell them they are wrong. But to find out why they think they are right, and then being very subtle and inconspicuous, I show them they are wrong. This is what we all should be doing.
I spent the last 5 days in New Orleans, LA. Which happens to be one of the greatest, craziest and most wonderful cities in America. While there I had the pleasure of meeting an extremely intelligent, articulate, stunningly beautiful friend of a friend who just so happened to be there at the same time as us. Somewhat reminiscent of Actress Eliza Dushku, OH YEA! The conversation over “Hand grenade” drinks (which are like melted jolly ranchers that will leave you on your ass) somehow lead to me asking where she stood. A Democrat! A beautiful Democrat! And to be honest, I almost didn’t care because I was dazzled. Now, I couldn’t delve any deeper into her beliefs in that social setting, so I digressed. But there was a conservative in her. I could sense it, and I wanted to bring it out, and I hope to be able to continue the short lived conversation at a better time. So now after rambling, my point is that even in the wrong social settings I try to reach people in the right way. Doesn’t always work, but I try. And that is what we all need to be doing. Figuring out when and how to convert the intelligent people we know and meet, and how to educate the not so…. Without making them feel like we are talking down to them.
As far as the libs out there, I’m afraid it’s much more difficult to reach them. Blinded by false promises and a phony ideology I’m afraid that what they need is an epiphany. Something to stand out like a beacon of light that helps them realize they have been duped. Wishful thinking.
Now the “far left libs,” out there! They need to stop lying to themselves. Stop pretending that their political beliefs are based on true human compassion. Stop telling themselves at night as they look in the mirror that “they are trying to save the planet,” or even better, “I’m a really good person, look at how I care about people.” You care about your fellow countrymen? Sure they do, just ask the teachers in New York that won’t take a pay freeze for two stinking years in order to save 11,000 jobs, IN THEIR OWN FIELD! It’s time for them to stop lying about who they are, and time to find out who they are. Its time to get “right,” or get “left,” behind that is.

I couldn’t agree more Justin. If you just leave ‘politics’ out of it and speak in general terms, people agree with you without even realizing they’re admitting they’re conservative, at least fiscally. After speaking with my friend’s (who told me literally she voted for Obama because McCain only liked rich people-yes people really say that) husband, who is intelligent but always considered himself a Democrat, he was stating things that were very conservative views about lack of handouts and even a flat tax rate. We never mentioned anything to him, but after leaving dinner my husband asked ‘so do you wanna tell him he’s a Republican or should I?’ and I was thinking the same thing. But he’ll never admit to it, regardless of the views we know he has. Strange, don’t you think!
It is a strange and common occurence, I agree. It happens all the time, where I meet someone, they talk in circles and end up agreeing with me w/out admitting it, and still leave a Democrat or liberal! It is almost a diagnosable syndrome! lol! But this one was different. All it took for me to know I can bring her over was how she said “I’m a Democrat.” LOL! I invited her to write on here. I’m sure even if she is stubborn she has alot to offer. As I am sure you do as well. Still waiting for a post from you!
Are you saying in any way that you can not be friends with a democrat J.G.?
Not at all Pete. I have many people in my life that are nearest and dearest to me that I do not agree with. It was a mere joke.
