Yeah, after the 2004 elections, I overheard one of the Girl Scout leaders in town, one who most of the other women find extremely annoying as well, denigrating the voters down in "Jesusland". I would have engaged her in a lively discussion, were it not for the fact that the girls, who had been doing a 'flag disposal' ceremony, were coming back to join us.
Good job. It takes a lot to be civil simply to set a good example.
Contrast that with liberals...I have a picture of a leftist in Oregon defecating on a burning American flag, while people laugh in the background, one of them has kids with them.
