John Warner is one of them, plain and simple. Speaking of "them". It is with a heavy heart I awoke this morning. My best friend in the world, best man at my wedding, a guy I have known since 1978, last night revealed that he and his wife are "them". It was striking because of the venom they spewed about Corporations, "Domestic Spying", (I almost choked on that one) and the war. These are good, decent people seduced by the Seattle PI and CNN. I knew better than to push it, but it really bothers me that CNN and the NYT have come between us..
I visited my cousin, who is in GErmany , this month. I got the same response , this venom spewing anti corporation, anti American, anti Bush stuff. She is a very educated person but they get their news from the same MSM here.
I left her place the next day and she still didn't get it...that just maybe I don't want her anger and vitriol.
Yes, it is very sad. I lost another very close friend to "them"..knew her for over 20 years.
You have my sympathy. One of my very best friends is one of "them". Great guy in all other respects.
When our one and only daughter moved to NYC, from the deep south, over 3 years ago I was afraid she would meet and possibly marry one of "them", since "they" are so numerous.
She met and began to date this guy and overheard one of his friends ask "is she one of "us?", meaning conservatives. The conservatives are like a secret society in NYC. She is and her boyfriend, now fiance', are one of "us". They plan to marry in May '05. Her Mom and I feel so lucky she fell in love with a conservative, and a super wonderful guy also.
