Reply #10: While I don't think anyone is "shallow" [View All]

for picking the tie over the Katrina rant, I picked the rant because KO managed to put into words the outrage that many people (self included) experienced while we watched our government sit back & do nothing. I sent the link to that rant to everyone I know, even my wing-nut cousins, & while most probably aren't going to change party affiliation over it, they have at least started THINKING about what their positions are & why they hold those views. That, in my book, is a good thing. :loveya: KO for that.

Plus, I've had a person I considered to be a good friend go fundie wing-nut on me & accuse me of doing & saying things she knows are not true & never could be true. It wasn't a public bashing like KO got from John Gibson, but it still hurts nonetheless when I realize that over 20 years of being a faithful friend who was always there to help counts for absolutely nothing once the other person drowns themselves in Koolaid.
