In my office, there are two conservative republicans and one person who I consider extremely liberal. I find the two conservative republicans to be heartless in some aspects. For instance, they do not have much empathy for the people we serve, low income housing residents. Here is a typical remark, "These people are all ripping off the government." I think these co-workers are in the wrong line of work, if that is what they truly believe. However, they are very good at making sure the people that provide this housing follow all the rules and regulations.
The extreme liberal thinks that all of the countries that hate the United States are 100% right in doing so, and we deserve terrorists acts. I find these extreme views disturbing. I believe in helping the poor of this country, but I also believe that we should take a little national pride. I realize our country has made some poor decisions, but we should be proud about some of the good things that we have done, and strive to be better. I think the best thing about our country is that we are all allowed to have our views and speak our minds. I am a moderate democrat, and I love Al Franken. His book entitled "Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot" is very funny. "Lies and the Lying Liars that Tell Them" (something like that I think?) was good as well..... |
