We can talk about cancers, love-lifes, jobs, religion, families, but not about politics. We gloss over our politics as soon as we come to disagreement & move onto other things...like the weather, but I'm always left wondering how in the world we will ever overcome the very deep divide among us. I can't imagine that it will ever go away...or not get deeper and wider as a country...or even dangerous. It's not as though we can go around insulting & saying "your politics stink!" & the sad thing is that our politics reflect our isms which make them even more deeply personal.<BR/><BR/>Has the country ever been so divided, since the mid-1800s? Yes, there were the Civil Rights issues and Viet Nam, but both political parties must have been on both sides. Today we're split right down the middle.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand, maybe it is the small-talk that will keep us united as a country.<BR/><BR/>I am almost fearful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18171692.post-66180855852235149332007-08-28T19:46:00.000-04:002007-08-28T19:46:00.000-04:00I can't disagree with a word you've said!
