I'm here in WA, and all and all, it's been pretty good. Confusing, but pretty good. Things with Nanu are getting pretty serious: my parents like him, his parents like me, he's talking again about moving to ND, things are...getting serious

Have you read "what's the matter with Kansas?" - It does a really good job of explaining why people vote republician even though it is against their best interests...

[antigone_reborn]

Yeah, I read it. Although their explanation: that it has to do with the morals thing, doesn't make sense, as neither my father or my bf is against abortion (or at least not to the point where they are willing to legislate against it.).

Doug, from Fine Dry Wit, says
"Has it occured to you yet, Antigone, that YOU are wrong, and your dad and this Nanu guy are right? Your inability to understand doesn't mean they are wrong-actually, all it means is that you can't understand their reasoning, their motivations. still not in love with you>

Re: "Still not in love with you"

It has, actually. And after looking at it again, the only conclusion I can come to is that we have way different motivations in our lives.

My dad and Nanu are thinking family and selves. I'm thinking humanity and future.

What I can't understand is why they are so eager to not look out for others.

I'm assuming this is from Doug.

Do not put links to sexist, racist, lying bloggers on my livejournal.

(Cut you off: yes, you can be sexist and racist even if you're a female and a minority, and yes, she is lying, that is a disreputable source).
