64. What you may want vs the reality of the situation

I do have a few Republican friends. I was friends with them before they called themselves Republicans and I am friends with the person, not the espoused ideology. To me, that's what being a liberal is supposed to be about. Seems to me, if you hate them for their ideology alone, then you may as well call youself a Republican yourself, because you will be no better.

We are talking about human beings here. I'm not willing to fuck everyone over just because I'm angry. If you are, then perhaps you aren't as liberal as you think you are.
