Reply #137: After I returned from Vietnam, as time went on, I came to realize [View All]

that many of my "friends" were becoming greedier and greedier. Most of them dodged the draft because they had connections to do so and also to get the "good" jobs in the area.

I couldn't put my finger on it for a long time until I finally realized that they were what today is called a conservative or a conservanazi. They forget their roots, their upbringing and have no concept of "us". They can't figure out that we are all in this together.

Where I'm living now is a bible-thumping conservanazi community with lots of poor folks. They can't afford a dentist but can afford to smoke. Go figure. When I bring up the fact that Fox isn't the news, they damn near want to fight. So, I'll work a little with the Democratic Party's distric council here for a bit. However, I will tell them the party has to become what it was, not republiklan lite.

If they ain't part of the solution, then they are part of the problem.
