so...

according to 90% of the posts on my flist today, i'm stupid or i suck. all righty then. i'll try to remember that.

here's a tip, just because someone doesn't share the same views that you do does not mean that they are a bad person. differences is what makes the world go 'round. if we were all the same this would be a very boring world. certainly not one i'd want to live in.

quite frankly i am offended by some of the posts i've seen from people i consider friends. if Kerry had won, i would not be calling the people who voted for him stupid. i would wonder why they voted for him since i never understood his appeal. other than him being "anyone but Bush" for a lot of people. BUT i would never have insulted my friends that voted for him.

just food for thought.

to clarify...

i just want to clarify something. while i voted for Bush, there are definitely things that he supports that i don't. his views on abortion, gay marriage, etc for instance. however, i don't believe that he will be able to affect those things. he's not the be all end all to laws that are passed in this country. that is why we have congress.

the reason i didn't vote for Kerry is because of what i heard from him. which was pretty much a whole lot of nothin'. he didn't lay out his plans for presidency, he flip flopped on issues that were brought up, and he just didn't strike me as a very positive leader of the free world. he seems weak to me and America does not need to seem weak right now. there's too much going on in the world around us for that.

i'm with denisef on this one. if you think i'm "stupid" or "moronic" or any other negative adjective you can think of because of the way i cast my vote, remove me from your friend's list now. i don't have the time nor inclination to deal with people who are completely incapable of being respectful of my views. also? i reserve the right to bitch about things that are going wrong in my country at any time. that is my right as an American. don't like it? then like i said, remove me. i won't say there won't be hard feelings because you can bet your ass there will be.
