I see no divisiveness in that party at all..
It's funny.. under Bush they never went that far.. remember,
'you're either with us or you're with the terrorist'..it was all passive/aggressive deniability or they'd just threatened to call us 'UN-American '.. if we didn't go along with their every whim... So atleast there's progress.. because now, I can't read
any comment section without seeing myself referred to an 'America-hating-liberal-scumbag'..
'
today I went to one of my favorite and longest clients.. she's a bible-thumping,extremely wealthy trust-fund baby.. She has a heart of gold and will help anyone,financially or other at the drop of a hat...and she had Romney/Ryan all over her yard and her shirt.. She knows I'm for Obama and we never,ever talk politics.. but somehow today we stumbled upon the economy and she decided to warn me about all the talking points Fox and the Koch Bros told her to be afraid of..
but to her credit.. she never once said the words 'obamacare,liberal,democrat,republican,Obama'... not a single time.. she refereed to the 'healthcare laws'.. and said 'we need to vote the right way so business will let their money go back to work creating jobs"..
It was pretty refreshing not to be called names.. I love her to death, but I don't agree with her at all.. and what will benefit me, will not benefit her and vice versa... but she was respectful, so I listened..
at one point we got on the part about the 'death panels'.. and she was vehemently opposed to anyone in gov't telling her what she can do with her doctor... I interjected that to be fair, all insurances had a 'board' that would decide whether your claim was approved or not.. she stopped and said,
"I didn't think about that"...I'm sure it's already out of her head by now because she probably saw her copy of Palin's book laying in the living room and 'death panels' jumped back in it's place.. but it got kinda funny when she was so adamant about no one in a gov't position even daring to think they had the right to decide which medical procedures a person could have at their doctors' office(in reference to her parents maybe being to old to get care under Obama's death panels).. and I replied
"I'm right there with you.. everyone, man, woman, child,the elderly and even teenage girls shouldn't have the gov't telling them what they can do at their doctors and with their body"..HA!
she got my inference and again, realized her hypocrisy and then we just went back to looking at her dogs... LOL.
