Politikin' In Texas

Posted by: irisb

My good friend pfunk says Vote for Kinky Friedman on his latest blog entry. I might have to agree with him. But that's not the point of this entry. It merely reminded me of a recent conversation I had with someone who is anti-kinky friedman, and really upset me by literally trying to convince me that he was a bad choice for governor. Now, I understand that people are entitled to their own opinion, but I am also entitled to my own opinion, so dammit, let me have mine and leave me alone!

It's such a pet peeve of mine to have people try to sway me to their side! And no, I NEVER try to sway people to my side, because I am adult enough and mature enough to know that democracy works, and if we couldn't think for ourselves and form our own opinions, we would all become robots. And so even though I might vehemently disagree with their point of view, I respect it, and I won't get into it with them...unlike this guy who terrorized me the other day!

I mean, what do people like that think they are going to accomplish? Do they think they are going to actually change my mind?

Sorry to rant. Perhaps I will have something of more value to contribute later. By the way, Kinky is having a fundraising concert tonight at Poor David's Pub.

And he has his own blog: http://www.kinkyfriedman.com/blog.html
