| − | I was wondering, do most of you have no liberal friends? Several of my friends have been liberals, who I met at work (health care, then in retail), or through pasttimes (football, stand up comedy). I really appreciate their friendship, and for the most part we don't talk politics or religion(or drugs, or sex), but we can get along for the duration of the job we're doing or while watching a football gaming or taking part in the same comedy show (and my stand-up makes fun of Obama, Pelosi, and Hollywood values pretty often), or even talking afterwards. Now, that said, every one of my liberal friends has at least one friend (and often several) that I can't associate with and that fits all the stereotypes mentioned in this article. I know the type, believe me, and luckily I have enough education and experience that I can more than hold my own when they attack capitalism or religion or conservative lifestyles. But my friends also will take my side, not because they agree with me but because they respect me. I just don't think this article is true in my experience. Or maybe I don't know what a liberal is.

I don't disqualify anyone from being my friend, unless they disqualify themselves with their behavior toward me or to their fellow man.
