I always make it clear that the attempt to convince someone of my point of view is a gesture of respect.  i don't think that they are evil,
but perhaps they just haven't heard all of the things that I have heard.



Agreed, I have a respect for other's views (which is what's lacking at DU).  When my friend and I talked tonight, I did tell her things she hadn't heard (and not in the moonbatty way) and we both discussed how we think Piper is one of the cutest things ever!

I am making a different point.  having respect for one another's views is one thing.  but being willing to expend the brainpower and
time to convince someone that you are right . . . that, in and of itself, is a gesture of respect for the person that you are arguing
with.

Yes, but I respect this person very much.  I respect her right to vote as she wants.  I'm not trying to "convince" her of anything.  Just like I'm not here to convince you peeps you're wrong either.  LOL!!!

Yeah, I heard someone make a snide remark how Bristol's sex life should be no more private than Bill Clinton's..... Excuse me, but Bill Clinton was the subject of a sexual harassment suit when the Monica Lewinsky story broke. Can people really be that stupid?

That's completely wrong.  Bristol isn't running for office.  Period.  Her "sex life" is off limits.

you are still not getting it.  let me make an extreme example.  if I got into a red-faced screaming match with you, it would be a GOOD
thing in my mind, because I considered you to be worth saving from your ignorance.

that was just an example, of course. :-)

as brilliant as you are, sometimes I think that you are intentionally ignoring the point, Mia.

the accusation from the left is hypocrisy.  since we are pro-life, and since the only alternative to "****ing whenever" that they
will recognize is abstinence, the left thinks that they have Sarah Palin nailed for the only sin that they will recognize;  hypocrisy.

her daughter is pregnant.  she did not abstain.  therefore, Sarah is a hypocrite.

Mia,even though we all would love that you see things in the same way as we do we also respect and like you because you are an honest and decent person.
Politics is one thing but friends and people are what count in life.

Okay,you will vote for Obama in November..so be it,that doesn`t change anything as life and friendships go.

of course it doesn't.  but I will take it one step farther.  when she votes for The BarackStar! in november, it will mean that we have
failed her.

that sounds REALLY condescending, but Mia knows how I meant it.

her daughter is pregnant.  she did not abstain.  therefore, Sarah is a hypocrite.





Of course I'm ignoring the bigger picture.  :)

I understand what the "left" is saying and I get what the "right" is saying.

I personally feel that Bristol being pregnant has zero impact on how I feel about Sarah Palin as VP.  I dislike her*, but the fact that her daughter's pregnant has no bearing on it.  


*Yes, of course, I'm not a fan of Sarah Palin, but there's no need to go into a lengthy discussion about it.  I've stay away from the Palin threads before and I don't want this to disenvolve into an "educating" Miss Mia about Palin thread.

Yes, politics isn't everything, though it's hard to admit.  Like I cannot believe DUmmies (and they truly are) stop talking to their families because they're conservative.

You know my dad is a conservative, and he helped me put out my Obama lawn sign (it lasted two days :()  He said that he was glad I was getting involved and educating myself, and that one day I'd be a republican like him.  LOL
