Plei, the echo chamber is mighty. My friend on fb is a truly excellent person. I can't imagine anyone here meeting her in person and not loving her immediately. But her political opinions seem to come from the ether. I can't reconcile them with the intelligent (truly, truly) loving woman I know.
It must be extra frustrating for someone like you (I'm not misremembering, am I?) who once upon a time identified as conservative. Of course, I think both
conservative
and
liberal
outlived their useful lives, years ago.

I was a libertarian for a while. Basically, until I came to the conclusion that big business was worse than big government, because you can't vote out big business.
IOW, until I started working for The Man.
Kat, I'm so glad your father's surgery went well. Now for all of the rest of it to sort itself out...
I'm glad the conservative people I'm FB friends with (including a relative or two, I'm sure) don't feel the need to engage when I post political stuff.
Kat- that is great news about your father's surgery!
I try not to post political stuff, but sometimes I cannot help it.
Last night I dreamt about the Harry Potter characters posting about Prop 8 on Facebook!
Kat, that's great news about your dad. Yay!
Happiest of birthdays to Aims and Scrappy! With cake and lots of extra happy and spicy.
(Is it not Aims's birthday yet? Oops.)
I'm enthusiastic, what can I say.
Happy birthday, Scrappy!!!
