I cannot believe that I am dating a Southern Conservative Gal!

[SF Bay Area Dem]

She is a nut-job when it comes to politics and conservatism but oh so fun to be around the rest of the time (when she is not flipping out about politics and *!)... I cannot believe I fly 3,000 miles on the red eye flights to see her but hey! If she moves to the Bay Area I will definitely convince her to change her politics!

[LiberalVoice]

1. I cant believe it either

:P

[buff2]

19. You can tell a person's character

by the political views they have. Conservatives are a non-caring cold hearted money grubbing breed of people.Look at the horrible views bu$h has....he hates the elderly and the poor,his actions prove it. Anyone who approves of his way of thinking is no better than he is. Dump the bitch.

[Warpy]

2. Good people get to be wrong

and there's no way we can control how they think. Doing things by example and gently challenging the worst of their funny equations is about all we can do if we want to keep them as friends.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

3. Is she pro-choice? For women's rights?

if she isn't, then she is a self-hating conservative. Very sad...

[SF Bay Area Dem]

7. Kathy --- I just asked her... she is...

She is not afraid to have an open mind. It is a good start and there is hope!

[Kathy in Cambridge]

10. Yes! That's great she is open-minded

there may be hope! :-)

[Randi_Listener]

14. Lose that worthless shitbag.

She isn't worth a squirt of piss with her politics.

[In Truth We Trust]

4. don't count on it. I don't mean to be cynical but I wouldn't bet the bank

and eventually she'll wear thin on you. Try asking her to do the red eye for a change.

[LibertyorDeath]

5. Please elaborate "oh so fun"

Details we want the details. :)

[karlrschneider]

6. 3000 miles? She has to be in Maine, Florida or Hawaii.......

Or Puerto Rico? That's 'southern'...

:evilgrin:

[SF Bay Area Dem]

9. No... she is in Atlanta... And I was wrong on the miles...

It is only 2,496 miles (or thereabouts) from San Francisco International...

[Randi_Listener]

8. Long Distance Relationship with a fucking degenerate?!?!

This is doomed to fail. Bank on it.

[FlemingsGhost]

11. Can't be too fond of her, you already have plans to change her.

Why do you think that is?

Or should I ask the smaller head?

[SF Bay Area Dem]

12. LOL!

Too funny!

[Randi_Listener]

27. The stupid fucking asshole you date can't stand up straight

Dump that worthless gutter whore.

[seabeyond]

13. a decade down the road

17. I want to relate something that may, hopefully, cure you of this

infatuation with the Southern Fundie Gal. I was traveling to South Carolina on business with a business partner from Switzerland to look at a potential acquisition. His first name was Heinz as in the ketchup. My first name is Jay which is easy but my last name is a tongue twister.When we went to register at the front desk at the hotel we were staying, the girl at the desk asked my friend what his name was. He said Heinz----. She asked him to spell the name and it was an easy task. When my turn came, I told her my full name and she looked it up in her reservations and couldn't find it.So she asked me if that was my real name. I told her, no, my real name is Winston Churchill. She asked me to spell that name so she could look it up! And that made my day.

18. Ah love is grand.

However (brace yourself), her conservatism may translate into aspects of her personality and views you may find grating down the road. I hate to throw cold water on you. I just have this altruistic wish that you do not get hurt.

[Mojambo]

23. Some lyrics for ya.

From the Foremen, "My Conservative Girlfriend"

She's a real Type A
And she's over-insured
Her favorite castaway
Is Thurston Howell, the third
She doesn't like big government so it's no surprise
I can be her lover long as I downsize

My conservative girlfriend
Got a tiny little heart full of passion
My conservative girlfriend
Every Friday we go liberal bashin'

She got the Supreme Court
Tattooed on her rump
Beside an autographed port-
Trait of Donald Trump
And from the day I checked her out from front to back
I knew her private sector could take up the slack

My conservative girlfriend
Got a tiny little heart full of passion
My conservative girlfriend
Every Sunday we go Medicare slashin'

(spoken)
Oh, baby, I close my eyes and I can see you ordering breakfast.
You're having the spotted owl omelet...
Whites only.
Come on, baby,
Raise my interest rate, bust my union, light my library fire...

(sung)
She only deals in quality narcotics and guns
Got a Mexican wallet made from real Mexicans

My conservative girlfriend
Got a tiny little heart full of passion
My conservative girlfriend
Her white collar and her red neck are clashin'
My conservative girlfriend
Think she's lookin' for a good tongue lashin'
My conservative girlfriend
Every summer we go wilderness trashin'

25. When you say "gal" I have no idea if she is 16 or 50

How old is she? What is her background concerning politics? Is she political?

[MissMarple]

26. And you are going to raise formidable young women with this person?

Hummm...??? We need good progressive southern women, not conservative sexy templates for ...whoever. Get a grip, for heaven's sake!!!

[Moms Baby Democrat]

28. dun dun dun

Another one bites the dust.....

[GalleryGod]

29. If She Moves to the Bay Area-won't she be A Committee of One.

Post her picture! I cannot believe you'd put yourself through that?

[tjwmason]

30. If you get on well

Then screw politics, there is more to life; if, however, her rants infavour of Bush drive you mad, perhaps it's time to reconsider.

I have conservative friends, socialist friends, apolitical friends; it makes no difference per se.
