My uber-conservative friend that wrote in Ron Paul and thinks Alan Keyes is a genius [View All]

[happychatter]

...he hasn't been a Republican since the invasion of Iraq and when people were discussing the election last month said "I wouldn't vote for either one of "them worms.""

Last night we were chatting in the rain after a meeting together. I told him I had a ten dollar bill in my wallet... that I would set that ten dollar bill aside for him, and if Habeus Corpus is not restored, if Guantanamo is not closed, and our civil liberties in better shape within a year... I would give him that ten dollars.

He said "I wouldn't take that bet. The odds are fifty fifty."

He has been watching in the last couple of weeks... and is frankly, impressed.

I think we all are.

50/50 is a big step UP, from being the foaming at the mouth wingnut he was in the 90s.

I know, I know... "Happy, this is your FRIEND?"

yup
