68. I understand what you're saying, saracat. |

To me, "willfully uninformed" in this day and age translates as "stupid."
To keep yourself ignorant when our nation is in the throes of what could be its death march, is really stupid or really tragic.
I'm glad I'm married and paying attention. When I was single, I was ignorant of everything for a long time. I hated politics. But it gets to a point where you can't ignore everything going on around you. That time is now.
I could never consent to date a Republican. To anyone who points fingers at us and says "That's really shallow," there is absolutely no way I could sacrifice everything I believe for a little physical pleasure with someone. There would be absolutely nothing for me to talk to the person about in the meantime.
My husband has been wonderful as I've gone off and volunteered for Dean in Iowa, marched in Washington, worked at local events getting out the vote. You think a Republican would support me when I do that stuff? Hell, no.
I spit on them all. FSC
