Conservative thread: We're still smiling!

[onelilspark]

fascists!

The horror!!!!!!!

I know right!

My boyfriend is org from there. We were walking around a Target and he lets out with, "I love Target." Which is an usually bold statement for him, so I started teasing him a bit and he goes, "but you don't understand, we don't have Targets in Vermont."

Me: "Oh don't be silly, I'm sure you just had to drive a bit to get to one."

Him: "Seriously. None."

Me:

We have a super center here in my college town- and TWO back in my hometown. Target refuses to put in a store where I live so I have to drive thirty minutes to go to one.

I've been meaning to show you guys this for like forever- this is my MySpace background (no one can see my actual profile, it's on private)-

And this is at the very top of my profile-

Like I said, no one can see this on my actual profile because it's set to private and I have to approve my friends before adding them. I just thought I'd share with you guys- I am a sick twisted WDW freak (listeners of Glenn's show will get the whole sick twisted freak thing...), quite obviously.

So what else is up cons??

That is really cool!!

Did you know there's no Target's in Vermont??

No Targets in VT? That's just sick and wrong on so many levels!!!!

Soarin', I'm pretty sure you're on my myspace friends list. I could see it if I wanted.

We 'just' got a Target here a few months ago....still trying to get used it.

Ironically enough, I live in the very middle of a large city - where are all the Targets and Walmarts? In the 'burbs - at least 30 minutes away. Go figure. I do love the little neighborhood Walmart just down the road from work but dread going to the humongo supercenter Walmart just down the other road from work - blek! Just give me a computer - I can do plenty of wonderful shopping then.

Thank you . I really appreciate that. I'm sure that dh wouldn't mind watching the kiddos for a couple of hours, so that I can head to the library. At least, I hope he won't mind.

As hard as undergrad was, grad school was a different kind of hard because I was so distracted by my full-time job and life in general. I hope you can cut yourself some slack - and not just in school. One thing in grad school was learning and using the word 'no.' I love that word - 'will you help with our children's program at church?' NO 'are you free to babysit?' NO 'can you serve on this committee?' NO, NO, and once again, NO.

Unfortunately, I let too many people know that I had graduated so I've gotten sucked into some things over the past few years but I do say that lovely word more often than I used to.

to all of those beginning their semesters - it's a rough go but well worth the trouble. You'll be so glad you pulled through.

Has anyone here ever notice just how hateful that other bunch is? Just wondering.

I am??? I'll have to look and see..... I've gotten so many new friends over the past few weeks I can't keep track.

Ohhhh yeahhhh.... found ya!!!!

Soooo after Two and a Half Men I turned on The Bachelor. Such a bad idea. I'm so going to be sucked in for the season

 

[Decorated_Dust]

Haha...I went to a school that was so conservative that I was liberal!!

Wow, it's hard to imagine. My school is pretty liberal for a Christian school, but it's still pretty Republican. I've heard of some doozies, though.

 

[Decorated_Dust]

I know! I went from HS where I was normally the lone dissenting voice on the conservative side, to college where I was the lone dissenting voice on the liberal side and I was just like wait a minute...what's wrong with this picture. But I went to a very conservative school. While we agreed on economic issues for the most part, it was the social issues. I found that I was much more likely to be accepting of others and the people I was discussing things with couldn't even see the other side. It was very interesting to say the least.

I thank the Lord every day that I'm not that Conservative. I know several people who are, and it's like talking to a brick wall.

WOW. These are amazing! Too bad I don't use Myspace anymore. I would be stealing these from you.

You don't?? Darn.... I love MySpace. Facebook too, but I use MySpace more.

 

[onelilspark]

Have both MySpace & Facebook, but rarely use MySpace. I get too many creepers. I mean seriously, it says "In a Relationship" you ain't gettin any. So I've just given up on that. I don't get the creepers on Facebook, so I stick with that. I have friends on MySpace though that don't have Facebook, so I keep it around. E-mail is totally over-rated

Yeah, I know what you mean. Though I've never had any creepers on MySpace of FB bother me....

Don't know if you guys want it or not, but I have the link to the blog where I'll be posting all my CP stuff for you all to read. PM me for the link (I'm not posting on the boards... if I know you really well on here, you get the link).

 

[MeghansMommy]

LOVE Target!

Me too.

I would most likely use high school students or folks in a public college. My college leans Republican, so I might not get an accurate sample. Then again, if I do both PBA and another public college, that would balance out.

I am hoping to do a statistical thing, because that's what I need to make for my assessment class.

I'd love to read it. Can't wait for you to get started.

AMEN!!!

Target is my happy place.

Me too.

Really? I hadn't noticed....

Ahem...
I'm a fiscal and social conservative. Want to know my position on something just ask. And I think you'll find that I'm not a brick wall...I listen.

Yeah, I'm a Facebook person myself. Ya'll want to be friends?

I was talking about those who don't listen and will not understand, hear, or tolerate the other point of view. Sarah Palin's as conservative as you can be and I love her. I guess I just chose my words poorly. My bad.

I'm a social and fiscal conservative as well.

 

[Soarin08]

I do!!!!

 

[Decorated_Dust]

I do!!!!

Yay!!! I'll send you a PM with my info. If anyone else wants to be friend on Facebook, send me a PM. I'm always looking for a few good men (or women).

That works!! And while I'm at it, I'll send you the link to the CP blog I've set up.
