Reply #51: Then I guess DH the Republican isn't one of those [View All]

He believes his Bible (we both do; we're Christians, after all).

He listens to Rush (he keeps his radio tuned to the same station at work all day long; at home, I put on NPR and he's cool with that, although he will try to argue with the radio from time to time), but doesn't "worship" him. That would be idolatry.

He does watch FOX News (pretty much limited to Brit Hume and O'Reilly). He cannot abide KO and even quit watching the Sunday Night Football pre-game show because KO is on it.

He says about liberals, "I don't hate liberals. They're just wrong about so many things," and then goes on to argue why he thinks so. Is that liberal bashing?

War-mongering. Not sure what that means, either. That seems bit of a loaded term. He did support the Afghan and Iraq wars initially, although he's cooled to the latter, primarily because of the ineptitude of the execution, not because it was wrong, per se. He does believe in American exceptionalism. He's certainly not a "bomb 'em all, let God sort them out" type.

He doesn't hate gays, but neither is he soon to be a candidate for a GLAAD poster. I think he would just as soon everyone keep their sexuality to themselves.

Venom spouting. Since that has a subjective meaning, I won't touch that one.

Whadd'ya think?
