See, sometimes the ideology gets silly.
I mean, if my daughter wants to marry a Republican, and he’s otherwise a good guy, and they’re in love, well, let’s raise
a glass to the happy couple!
Now, I’m strongly committed to having and
defending principles. But, really….half of Republicans, and a third of
Democrats, are willing to say right out loud they’d be “displeased” if a child
married someone from the other camp?
Are they really saying stuff like “Gee whiz,
Marcie, Jonathan’s an alright guy, I guess, but, but….he’s a Democrat! We just have
to put our foot down here and say no….”
I suggest to them: get real. Get all worked up about some real
stuff, like dangerous economic inequality and global climate change and
congressional dysfunction and too many guns….
You know what I’m saying.
