2. Could it be that neither truly believes in anything, that their rants are |
|
just fodder for the fire, that they think it's all just a game, and that we're just rubes?
Just asking!

whichever way the wind is blowing.

9. They respect each other's view . |
|
They don't have to be linked minds to be married....some do but I think the give one another space and independence.
Years ago, a Catholic won't marry a Protestant....that has changed.

10. She treats him like crap--watched K Street, it was clear. |
|
Whenever he was talking, she'd interrupt him...basically, he seemed whipped by her "beauty" and "smarts".
So that's how they do that. I'm sure there's a great deal of love and respect there...James seems to be completely able to sit back and let her be her.
I couldn't do it.

13. Have you seen them? Not exactly beauties. |
|
I think it was a matter of, "Hell, we aren't going to find anyone else, are we?"
And do you know how irritating it is to be with someone who is all politics all the time, when you yourself aren't? At least they have something to talk about - even if they don't agree.

My fiance is a staunch republican. We just agree that it's best (most of the time) if we don't address our politics. If we do discuss them, we just make sure we don't get out of hand and discuss them calmly. It's really not that hard. I find it hard to judge people just because I disagree with them politically. If you give them time, they'll give you much better reasons to dislike them. lol
It's the extremists that I have no use for, but that's not limited to politics. People that live, breathe, eat and shit their cause (whatever it is) just aren't that much fun to be around.

17. for me it would be a real show stopper because I see politics as |

involving fundamental differences in values that would make it impossible to have a close relationshp.

32. not everyone wants a close relationship |
|
Some people need distance in a relationship. So if there are large areas that they don't have to share because they don't have the same values, it works for them.
The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists and other subversives. We intend to clean them out, even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country. --John Mitchell, US Attorney General 1969-72

Have you listened to the woman? I cannot understand how he long since hasn't smothered her with a pillow! Yeesh, she's only one step away from the Toxic Toothpick.

Get real. They're both so far to their respective sides I think they actually meet on the other side. Maybe that's how they do it.

21. I don't think he is nearly as abrasive and extreme as she is, but maybe |
|
its because I disagree with her so violently. She's always pointing out how MEAN the democrats are- which is really absurd for a republican to say. Objectively, they are some of the meanest and nastiest people on earth- when it comes to campaigning in particular.

22. He has a sense of humor |
|
I've never seen the trace of one in her. I think that's why I get a kick of him and can't stand her. Besides the obvious that is.

26. Sexual tension fueling a love/hate relationship |
|
Lots of passion involved. Usually, those end up being hate/hate relationships, but for some people, they work.
