HAHAHA !!!
Nice blog YGB. I'll follow this one.
Could you post why you hate people in red states? I don't get liberals sometimes. You seem well educated, so if you'd oblige me, tell me in a rational way why you hate Bush supporters. Don't just say "they're idiots" which is what I seem to get from most Leftists I talk to. Why do you disagree with their ideals? Please? I'd really like to know what makes the Bush-Haters tick.
I'm sure what you'd like me to say is that I dislike people in red states because they drive pick-up trucks stacked with guns and Bibles and smoke Marlboro reds on the way home from their sisters' trailer. Honestly, that seems to be the perception shared by many liberals here in the northeast. I shouldn't say that I dislike conservatives, more so that I do not understand them. To some degree then, it is a fear of the unknown, and I will admit that. Personally, I have many problems with the Bush administration, none of which you've yet to hear, I'm sure. For one, I disagree with the manner in which we essentially circumvented the United Nations in going to war with Iraq, and essentially left that institution impotent in our wake. Secondly, although I consider myself a Christian, I believe passionately in the separation of church and state. I fear that there is a large conservative base that wishes to erode this provision.
Regarding the president himself, I recall something my father taught me growing up. He owns his own business, relatively small, but as a child I was convinced he ran the whole world out of the office downstairs. Once, I asked him how he managed to do so many things, to be in so many places at once, and yet to lead with such success. He told me "Well, obviously I can't do it alone. Smart men surround themselves with smart people." I belive that is the mark of a great leader. Therefore, I hold President Bush accountable for the apparent lapse of judgement in chosing an unscrupulous Secretary of Defense and an irresponisble Attorney General (only two among those I disagree with). People always poke fun at the man because of his draw and his mispronunciation of words, but those things do not mark the intelligence of a man. An effective leader must know how to deligate judiciously, and at the very least, to surround him/herself with sound advisors.
In response to the conservative ideolody, I guess that it can best be summed up by my preference for the first and tenth amendments (free speech and power to the states) and my general disagreement with the second (right to bare arms).
