No Shades of Grey Here; Republican Friends Poll

[bryant69]

For a change. Do you think that a Liberal could be friends with a Republican or a Conservative who voted for President Bush in 2000?

1. A Bob Dole Conservative, Yes.

A Bushite fascist freeper, no fucking way.

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

2. This is a lame fucking survey.

Anyone who can't separate politics and friendship isn't worth having as a friend - liberal OR conservative. It makes me sick that the question is worth asking.

3. We Apologize that this Poll Does not Meet your Current Needs.

I would agree with your analysis, but the reason I am asking is because there was a long post / discussion that happened earlier today (and previously) and I was curious to get a feel on what most DU's thought.

9. I'm with you! Ridiculous question.

10. What he/she said.

n/t

4. Depends on whether he/she supports bu$h now.

there is nothing wrong with being part of the loyal opposition. It's supporting the criminals in the White House that I have a problem with.

[Curious Dave]

5. I could never be friends

with anyone who supports a politial party full of people who would rather see me dead!

7. if you can't get along with conservatives then you probably

are not friendly to begin with and most likely dont have many friends period. Politics are like religion, its a personal, everchanging bunch of bullshit that you believe/rationalize, in the end, you can't make anyone believe what you believe and why would you want to instill your set of beliefs on anyone?

8. 'Getting along with', 'showing respect to', 'being friendly with'

are all very different things from 'being friends with'.

[MrSlayer]

6. Absolutely. Politics aren't the only thing in life.

Just as a hand or foot does not make up the sum of a man's physical body, singular beliefs do not make up the sum of a man's character.



Edit: Spelling.

11. not lame to me - don't eat, sleep, or talk with them unless researching

they have made themselves into the enemy of pretty much all that is good and decent. And they are horrible conversationalists, so it's pointless.

13. Need help finding a picture.. please

Sorry to post this here but I guess I don't have enough posts yet to start a thread. I'm trying to find a copy of a picture that was posted here the other day. It was an Iraqi woman and her son holding a picture of their dead husband/father at Abu Grahib with a soldier kneeling over the body. Can anyone link me to it? I forgot to save it. Thanks in advance

12. This reminds me of the fable

of the scorpion and the frog. If you do make friends with a conservative, you had better kill the conservativism in him. Otherwise you WILL wind up in a concentration camp.
