I wish I could be a republican for one minute.

So I could hurry up and be a Democrat again.

1. Oh, to be a blissful, ignorant, uncaring person able to rationalize

all my selfish habits because I happen to vote like the christian right. Life would be so simple if I could just convince myself that all the people who don't make as much as me are just losers and forget that my mommy and daddy paid most of my way through school.

Unfortunately, my empathy, caring, wisdom, and honesty genes were all turned on at birth, so I guess I'll have to live with the consequences.

2. I remember driving along one afternoon around 1997-98 thinking to myself

I could never be a Republican right-winger, because they always end up looking completely at odds with any kind of intelligence or logic. They always end up looking like idiots.

Left-wingers and Democrats get things wrong and are guilty of human frailties, too, but it's usally honest mistakes. Republicans just end up looking like idiots.

And here it is again, 7 or so years later, and I am once again proven right. There is always so much material for the "Top Ten Conservative Idiots" list (which I feel should more accurately be called the Top Ten Right-Wing Idiots" list).
