I'm the self-proclaimed "Queen of the Internet." I am a huge fan of facebook. But sometimes all this social networking can work against me.
Like today, when the Southern Boy asked to be my friend. At first, I was excited, and realized I need to remove the link to this blog ASAP (and gently remind readers to refrain from mentioning it on my wall). Before I accepted him, I decided to take a little tour through his profile.
That's when I saw it. Right there under his name, birthday, hometown, and religion.
Political Views: Republican
And not just that, his "About Me" section reads: "I will bleed on the flag to keep the stripes red."
As the one liberal author of this blog, I am used to living in "a house divided." But, contrary to what Tucker said, this is not like a Cougar being married to a Husky.
So now, I'm torn. It's not a TOTAL dealbreaker, I will go out with him a second time. Maybe we could have a really romantic healthcare debate. Maybe.
Not sure how Dr. Neil let this one slip through. But thanks, Mark Zuckerberg, for keeping me in the know.

James Carville and Mary Matalin have a very happy relationship :)
ReplyDeleteRepublican = Total Dealbreaker. I can relate. Laughed out loud at the "romantic healthcare debate." Why is it okay for tall girs to demand tall guys and artists to demand people with appreciation for and understanding of the arts, but not okay for a liberal girl to demand a liberal guy? People always tell me I'm being closed minded. I remind them that it's cheerios for some, fruitloops for another. Fruitloops being the republicans of course :)
ReplyDeletewow if i was not married, this guy sounds perfect for me. bleed on the flag? yes please!
