Building Bridges
#21
RE: Building Bridges
I think it's likely a safe, canned response; carefully devised by PR types, in order to address the anti-gay controversy surrounding the church they attend... without revealing any conviction regarding the issue, either way. The network probably insisted on it.

I'm certain they'd like to keep the gravy train a rollin'. So, they went with it.

Good intentions are not enough. The ideas must also work.

There are some people I can't build bridges with though. I will never tolerate intolerance or smile at fascism, racism, bigotry or exclusivness. That, for me, would be like pissing on the graves of my ancestors who took up arms to fight the above.

But that's all the more reason to connect with these people. Maybe your good example and your words will influence them to see people differently.

You really are very sweet.  I wish the world was more like you.

And if we don't think the ideas will work then I guess you just have to blow up the bridge, suppress the vote and not hold a hearing to replace a supreme court judge for more than a year.  This is how the conservatives play it.

Non-liberal's 'ideas' only work for the rich or middle class.

Oh, they work. For the ones being on the receiving end of the rigged game. Look at a productivity vs income graphs of the last three decades and you can't deny they worked as intended.

I mean, to be honest, corrupt rich cunts such as Trump wouldn't switch from a Democrat to a Republican if if it didn't favor his corrupt rich cunty self.
