typical kerry supporter

My name is Mary Katherine, and I reside in the state of Ohio. I am a registered Republican. I grew up in a small town with very strict parents, attend church every Sunday, and have generally tried to live a good and decent life. I have been married for 15 years, have 3 children, and I am a stay at home mother. I am personally opposed to abortion, I believe in small government, and I cheered when welfare was overhauled. I am personally opposed to gay marriage, and I deeply believe this country needs to do more about the divorce rate in this country. My father was a steel worker who didn't miss a day of work in 35 years. My mother was a housewife. I still visit them regularly even though they live 5 hours away from me.
I think if you met me on the street or at the supermarket we would probably like each other.
However, everyone on this board hates my guts. I voted for John Kerry, so, therefore, according to you, I am a pig with no values.
I come here, desperately trying to understand why that is.
If you haven't stopped reading by now, maybe I could explain the reasons for my vote.
I am a fiscal conservative. I find W's reckless spending troubling.
I believe in religious freedom in this country. So therefore, just because I personally oppose abortion, how can I expect every American who does not share my faith to abide by that as well?
I believe in the Constitution. Therefore, even though I oppose gay marriage, if the constitution affords gay Americans certain rights, who am I to deny them?
Finally, I do not believe the war in Iraq was executed in the appropriate way. I do not support it in its current form.
So there it is. You all hate me for only one reason - the vote I placed on November 2nd. My only hope is that someday, somehow, you could all have a little less hate for those who don't share your beliefs. Thank you for reading this.
You think voting for an even BIGGER TAX AND SPENDER would help?
Your post 'smells' funny- I dont believe someone who was a conservative and against W for not being conservative enough could also be stupid enough to vote for Kerry.
Yep. They're my cousins who wrote the short bus to school.
"the trolls are thick today!"
I know, is there something in the air/water today.
In 1998 John Kerry along with the Democrat Party declared that the truth is not important but that elected Democrats are, therefor Bill Clinton does not need to obey the rules. At that point a became a Republican.
Well we see a few hundred people spewing this crap all week long. Nothing new in your frist day vanity post. Not much of anything in your post. Just a waste of bandwidth.
What a hate-filled statement for you to make! Have you read the Bible lately?
"If I was not clear, this has nothing to do with me"
HAHAHAHAHAHA
What a typical Dem response!! It's not me it's ALL OF YOU!!
I'm sorry, but you are an extremely intolerant, prejudiced individual. While I don't hate you (I still think you are just woefully uninformed) you are beginning to annoy me.
and for the record, I have many family and friends who are Democrats. I pick on them too.
I CHOSE A CONSPICUOUSLY CATHOLIC-SOUNDING, MIDDLE AMERICAN SCREEN NAME, BECAUSE I KNEW THAT IT WOULD PULL THE WOOL OVER YOUR EYES! AFTER ALL, U ARE ALL PATHETICALLY MALEDUCATED RIGHT WING SIMPLETONS! NOW I WILL ENJOIN YOU ALL TO READ MY ASININE, UTTERLY INCONSEQUENTIAL DIATRIBE, SINE YOU HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO WITH YOUR TIME THAN TO READ MY POINTLESS DRIVEL! THANK YOU FOR HUMORING ME! I APPRECIATE IT...
(More needlessly capitalized letters and repetitive exclamation marks.)
Let me get this straight... you voted for a Democrat to limit spending?
Are you sure you are 35? I could swear you were born yesterday.
You voted for Kerry and say that?
have I called any of you names? are we in 2nd grade? are you all proud of the way you carry on?
In other words, you flame-bait - and then whine about getting flamed.
We value honest liberals here. They are always welcome to post. You, however, are not honest.
Nothing better to do, I assume!
The hate is coming from your side not ours deary.
You think yourself clever, but you are so transparent. We can see right through you, regardless of what you have said to try and cover up your true self.
I do not hate you, however I do believe you are a damn fool.
Nothing like someone starting a flame war and then complaining about the heat.
Hey lady, get a thicker skin. You come over here telling us we are all full of hate and were supposed to say "oh, thank-you, we are soooo in the wrong. How did we ever survive society before you came along"?
Get a grip and get the panties out of a twist. Have a drink and send the kids to the baby sitter. If you're freaking out here, you must be a real basket case at home.
