58. It's just that Bush supporters are too different from me.
If someone is a Bush supporter, they likely are religious, watch only Fox News, listen to Limbaugh, oppose gay rights, support Bush's Iraq War and illegal wiretapping, think "liberal" is a dirty word, see nothing wrong with an imperial president, favor merging church and state, despise Bill Clinton, etc., etc. With so many different people to choose from as social partners, I would prefer not to spend my limited time with someone whose entire life is based on beliefs that are not just the opposite from mine, but are highly repellent to me.

I would have the same reaction if I saw a Coulter book in someone's house and they praised her when they talked about it. I'd be out the door as soon as possible.

Sorry, that's just the way I am.
