My pet peeve: mistreatment of the flag in any way. I cannot stand to see it being displayed improperly; if you own a flag and plan on displaying it, I believe that you should know the proper etiquette. For instance, one of our fraternities flies it own flag higher than the flag, which is attached to the wall. Big no-no.
Ok, getting off the soapbox.
I respect anyone with well thought out and INFORMED opinions. Don't tell me you're a democrat because your daddy told you to vote like he did and expect my admiration. I'll blow you off and not even waste my time telling you I don't agree with you.

WOOHOOO!!! I am LOVING some MTSUGURL! I couldn't have said it better myself -- thank you for a THOUGHTFUL reply!!
One thing I am going to add is this tax cut that was finally approved -- WHY IN THE HELL did the democraps get it in there that people who DO NOT pay taxes should still get a refund?? I mean, if I walk up to the returns line at Wal-Mart and there are 10 people ahead of me with shirts that they bought and are now returning, should I really expect to walk up there with NO shirt to return and say "I would still like some money back" --
I love Dole too
I think that she represents herself, her party, women, and politicians in a respectful way and I will be proud to support her if and when she runs for President.
As for W - he is an amazing man that has been criticized for things that *shouldn't* matter (like the references to Curious George) -- when instead, he should be recognized for making MY world a better, safer place to live. I will certainly be on his campaign!
