Put Your Country Above Your Party
Many of the responses I have received to my posts lately have started with the premise that I am a partisan. The supposition is that I want to bring down the Bush administration because I am a liberal Democrat.
Well, here’s the funny thing – I’ve been a life-long Republican. I just happen to care more about my country than I do about my party.
I’m not a Zell Miller like pretender, a Democrat posing as a Republican. I supported Ronald Reagan (though I understand that he had many faults). I voted for and whole-heartedly supported – and to this day continue to support – George H.W. Bush. I’m against affirmative action, I’m a fiscal hawk and I held pro-war rallies during the first Persian Gulf War.more

In case you don't read The Huffington Post
You may have missed this post by Cenk Uygur. My only comment is that I wanted to applaud.

Yes! See, THAT is the type of conservative I respect. We might have different ideas how to make America great but we could still have intelligent discourse.
Seriously, this was one of the best things I've read in a while. Thank you, Sean, for the link.
And yes, it is Adam. Now you know why I like Adam so much: he's not insane.
Well, of course you're a little insane. It comes from extended periods of time around someone that is crazy.
Sean and I are partially insane for the same reasons.
