1. I was talking to some last night, in fact
They are fellow mystics. I'd just found a conservative website had taken one of my posts on mysticism here and were using it to mock "liberals" for their "outlandish beliefs". My friends were not amused. But then they are old fashioned conservatives, and don't like Bush and what he's done to the GOP. I just wish more were like them.

3. It is not your fault
Shit happens sometimes, my best friend is a freeper (an a very ignorant one).

4. I can claim good friends of just every ilk...
except that one.

Friends don't let friends vote Republican (or Torrey)

7. Depends on the type of conservative
Some do literally want to kill liberals (along with "the gays" and "abortionists").

10. My husband is a conservative
Who, after my steady drip, drip, drip of stories everyday: "Guess what so-and-so RW nutcase did/got away with/said today?", said to me the other night, "I hope the Republicans get their come-uppance this fall. They've gone completely nuts." It was music to my ears.
