has finally seen the light!! OMG! Something just happened that made my day, and I need to share it with someone who can appreciate it, so posting it here.
I have this neighbor who is a major animal nut like me and we've sorta bonded over that. I've dog-sat for her two dogs and we've both engaged each other in writing letters to stop legislation that would harm animals etc. Well, anyway, she's not particularly involved in politics (except where animals may be involved), but right after the election she revealed that she voted for the idiot and proceeded to try to tell me why he won. Well, I lost it and we almost broke up our friendship over it. Finally we emailed each other and just agreed to stop talking about politics altogether, and concentrate on our common compassion for animals but we haven't really talked much since November.
Anyway, I just now ran into her when I was out walking my dogs and we chit-chatted for a bit and then she shocked the hell out of me by saying, "oh, and by the way,... Bush sucks!" I told her I would resist the temptation to use a familiar phrase (starts with "I" and ends with "told you so."). She didn't have time to elaborate but I'm guessing this has something to do with ANWR and Social Security (she's about 60). Anyway, I have hope that the masses are finally starting to see him for what he is. This was a great way to start out my weekend and the bonus part is, I may have my friend back!
