In the "Godfather" Virgil Sollozzo told Michael in the restaurant where the veal is "the best in the city": "You give me too much credit, I am the hunted one."
Well, you guys give ME too much credit. I really am, (was), asking if this is how liberals really think. You have to remember I am a product of the late fifties and sixties. When I was growing-up, Communism, (Russia) was the enemy who could start a nuclear war with us and destroy our way of life. I went to public school, but when I went to church and Sunday school, we prayed for something called the "Conversion of Russia". Didn't really know what it was, but prayed nevertheless because the priests and nuns asked us kids to.
Up until this last election I never had ANY interest in politics. (Does that make me a late-bloomer?) I knew about Republicans and Democrats, but nothing about Liberals, Conservatives, Moderates, Left-wing, Right-wing, Partisanship, Bi-partisanship, etc. I just never paid any attention to politics because it never seemed to affect MY day-to-day life. I never registered nor voted in any other election but this last one.
I did not CREATE that pps program, but it raised some interesting questions I had never thought of before. I put it on this forum because I felt I would get some solid feedback of opinions from people I respect.
Well, let me tell you what I DID learn. Some liberals are VERY sensitive about how they are portrayed and become quite vociferous about it WHETHER THEY FIT THAT STEREOTYPE OR NOT.
I still do not think Obama was the right choice for this country, but I think he and the dems are proving me correct more every day.
