Roy your post reminds me of the tune by Twisted Sister. "we're not going to take it" lmao

what do you think?

if its one of moderate difference i enjoy debate and conversation. but those with extremists veiws I havta take a pass ...I have enough extreme views of my own

Sure

I listen to Dee Snyder every Saturday night on my radio here. His latest quote that I heard was, "Whose your daddy that looks like your mommy?"

People who have strongly opposing political views probably aren't going to be attracted to each other anyway.

Unless they are basing their attraction solely on physical lust and infatuation.

Unfortunately, I believe that far too many people do indeed base their relationships solely on the latter.

No, unless we are talking
not pro-choice and
not a supporter of legalized medical marijuana

Then we might have to agree to disagree.

Honestly, I think it does but I think if he were intelligent and we could agree to disagree and communicate more about what we do agree on it might be possible. But honestly I have been turned off by people who have contacted me and after all this country has been through and Bush has a 3% approval rating that anyone could still say on their profile that they support the president.

I don't care as long as they arent right wing christian Demogogues like Jerry Fallwell.

It will for me as I am somewhat politically minded

not in an everyday sense, no. however, there are certain extreme cases where exceptions must be made. personally, i'm non-religious and my political views don't fit in with that of most americans. however i cannot stand zeal in any form, extremism and someone attempting to throw their beliefs down my throat are the quickest possible way a person can make me completely dislike them.

there's my two cents.

I think it's important to know the social and political
viewpoint of a potential partner. Some couples may be
mismatched. If one of you is indifferent to political
issues and the other is very passionate on this topic,
you may face a very difficult journey together. A warning
sign is if you disagree intensely and argue a lot.

I think in our everyday world that we live in today political veiws are as changig as the freakin clouds in the skies. The politicians change their veiws to fit the poles and to contradict what the other guys are saying to get some "air time". One day their for something the next day they have flipped flopped to the "hot new product". Politicians are liars and thieves and I dont care what side your veiws lean towards. When it comes down to the nitty gritty of a relationship I find that unless the two people are on opposite ends of life then they really dont have political problems in the relationship. If you want to start talking symantics we can but honestly deep down we all feel pretty damn close to the same things. No one likes to kill off human beings, kill the planet, take all the money, believe in everybody carrying uzi's, just to give a couple of examples. What it comes down to then is a name, what is your political affiliation? well im a.... oh shit then you must be a good guy or an asshole. All over a name , that quite frankly doesnt mean the same thing it did even 15 years ago. Get over ourselves with this political shit cause really it doesnt freakin matter anymore, Im a member of the human party, come aboard have a beer sit down and shut the fuck up!





of course as always I could be wrong, who knows these things

I like diversity and all the colours. My partner doesn't have to share my religious or political views ... he just needs to respect them as mine.

I see no reason to waste my time and effort trying to support a flawed political system that just simply does not work.

it is notthe political view per say i care about

its their attude about their politicalview that matters

if they cant understand and deal with a differnce of opinion
and preach about it all the time and it is an issue for them

then

cheers wave walk-away airplane-taking-off

I'm a moderate, or at least I consider myself such.


Picture this. It's a political cartoon I draw to explain my philosophy to any potential partner. If they can't agree or start to argue, then it's definately a deal-breaker.

Donkey on left, eating $$$$.

Elephant on right, eating Bill of Rights.

Uncle Sam in center, with four thousand dollar shovel in hand, gazing forelornely at big steaming poo pile in front of him, scratching head, going, "It all comes out the same."

They all do the same ka-ka, they just have different ways of stroking the public.

Thats funny, I think idiots like you are the problem

I think like has been said here, that having a difference in views about political issues or anything else honestly, is not a problem in and of itself, lots of couples have wonderful relationships without having the same views on lots of issues, even big ones. I want a man who is intelligent enough to have an opinion and to speak it clearly, even if that opinion is different then mine I will respect him for having it and speaking it. The problem would only be if he expected me to feel the same as him on all things or argued with me over my beliefs and opinions...we could have an intelligent debate, agree to disagree, and kiss and make up, but if in the end he can't agree to disagree, then the relationship would just end up being annoying and frustrating.
