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.

well...since you are so incapable of being considerate of my views, i don't feel the need to have you on my friend's list any longer. i don't need someone there who thinks i'm offensive and ignorant because of the way i voted.

so consider yourself defriended.

Just so you know, it's not because of the way you voted. It's because I assume you voted that way because your opinions on social matters, religiously based and biased, outweigh your concern with the envronment, womens rights, gay rights, intelligence, health care, education, and a variety of other things more important than legislating religious beliefs.

If I am wrong in assuming you voted that way for those reasons, then your vote was, uninformed, you really didn't deserve to vote in the first place, and you disgust me completely.


This isn't about living in a la-de-da situation where you respect everyone because everyone deserves to be repsected and everyone has opinions as important and valid as everyone else. Just because you think pi should be 3 doesn't make it 3. Just because you think something doesn't make it okay, and no one has to repect what you think, just your right to think it.

Bye.

you are quite the piece of work. my vote was neither based on my religious leanings nor because i was uninformed. they were based on things i heard from both candidates. just goes to show that you know nothing about the person that i am.

have a nice life, kelly.

I didn't base my vote on religious beliefs or ignorance either. Because you think something doesn't make it true. I have my reasons for supporting the war, and others of Bush's policies. If you honestly believe that that makes me ignorant and wrong, simply because you say so, you have just a little bit too high opinion of an opinion of yourself.

I don't know you very well, but you've always seemed to be a compasionate and intelligent person. Right now? You sound like an arrogant, snobbish, deluded little girl. grow up.

Defriended as well. I'm sure you won't lose any sleep.

Sorry, Christy. Screen this if you'd like.
