Am I horrible for this?
Advertisements [?]
Anybody who knows me knows how much I can't stand the politics of the right wing. I enjoy hearing right-wing talk show hosts getting angry, because bad news for them is good news for progressives most of the time. But I'm now finding myself getting a little sadistic when it comes to this. For example, my support for groups like the ACLU is based on progressive principles and stopping the right wing. I never got excited about the Pledge issue and thought that covering up the crosses on the seal was silly. But now, I'm finding myself getting this strange pleasure when these issues come up. I know how upset the religious right would be is somebody like Michael Newdow won a case. Even though I'm not crazy about what he's doing, I would get a sadistic pleasure if he won because of how upset the right-wing would be. What's gotten into me?
