As to “Why do you have these “friends”?”
Well they are basically good people who I have known for decades, who I enjoy talking to, who try to lead good moral lives and who volunteer in ways that improve the community we all live in.
I have been a card carrying Democrat and a card carrying member of the Republican party at different times, I am neither now. I have been an NRA member at times, I am not now. I understand that even the same person can change their opinions and positions over time.
I don't limit my “friends” to those that think exactly like me on 100% of the issues.
That is why these people are my friends.
I have many acquaintances, and family that are normal Liberal Democrats to far-left Liberal Democrats. Some are highly educated, some are not. Most are decent people...but totally misguided.
They all, if voting Democrat are dooming our country. I don't have friends that are doing that. And I have friends that are registered Dims. But they don't vote for the likes of people like Obama, Reid, Pelosi, Corsine, Bloomy, etc..etc...I'm guessing your friends do.
That is why people that vote like they do...aren't my friends.
