I am SICK of it!
Ok, so when it comes to Politics, I tend to have my beliefs and stick to them. However, I am also from a world where you are entitled to your beliefs and shouldn't be bashed for those beliefs, or made to look like an idiot. This is what I was raised to believe by REPUBLICAN parents. That's right...there are SOME Republicans that can actually think, have compassion, and aren't horrible human beings.
Time and time again, liberal friends, acquaintances, people I know, reporters, what have you, have spent hard earned money and time I am sure they don't have to bash Republicans. I will admit, some Republicans are idiots...but so are some Democrats. Especially when you look at politicians. ALL politicians lie and tell you what you want to hear to get your vote.
I have just grown so sick of allowing Liberals to have their beliefs when they shove in my face how much some of my FRIENDS obviously think I am a freaking idiot. It's called compassion, have it. Seriously.
You want to know what I REALLY think of most Liberals? Okay, here it goes...
Most Liberals are incredibly ignorant. However, there are a few reasons behind this. One, Liberals tend to believe in the idealism of Utopia and that Utopia is actually attainable. They get stuck in these beliefs because they also tend to believe anything that is told to them.
An example of this is the idea of national health care. While it looks fantastic on paper, right now, it doesn't work for us. Our country can't afford it. Yet Liberals refuse to look at that fact right now, because, well, it looks good on paper. You need to educate yourself a lot better than that.
I am not saying this ignorance or desire for Utopia as a bad thing. Quite the contrary. It is an essential part of life. It's like that song in Roger's and Hammerstein's Cinderella:
Liberals also tend to be hypocritical. There have been so many times in my life where I've known a Liberal and they will outwardly believe in something. They are passionate and 100% for it. Then something happens and all of a sudden they are 100% against it.
An example of this was a friend of mine in high school. She decided she wanted to be a vegetarian. She was so upset that animals are abused in their lives in order to be turned into food for us. She refused to eat meat because of this. I applauded her passion. Then maybe 6 months later she bashed people who believed in that while she took a bite out of a steak. It's not that I am blaming her politics on that. However, that is only one example, out of many.
To me, there is no reason to be a hypocrite. If you are a hypocrite, I will not believe anything you say. Who wants to be that person?
Anyway, the point of this blog is to say that we need each other. We need that dewey-eyed beliefs in Liberals to make things better, but we also need the street smart conservatives in order to make the Utopia that Liberals believe is possible to be more achievable by choosing the correct time for things that Liberals want, since Liberals don't really look at timing or even care about timing.
That is all I have to say.

"But the world is full of zanies and fools, who don't believe in sensible rules. And won't believe what sensible people say. And because these daft and dewy-eyed folks keep building up impossible hopes, impossible things are happening everyday."In order for things to change, we need those people who are ignorant and believe Utopia can be achieved so that better things can come.
