Listen, I have no problem if you feel that your political views most closely align with the republican party. I really don't care what party you ascribe to (they all have issues in my opinion but it's better to vote for something than for nothing). But what gets me is when masses of Mormons swear their life to the republican party when it seems they have never formed a critical thought in their lives. Many people - especially those who have never lived in or been to a place where their opinion is not the prevailing one. OR when it is apparent from the things that come out of their mouths that they have NEVER met a poor person. The things people say about people (our brothers and sisters might I add) living in poverty or struggling with illnesses or with life experiences that are different from their own is honestly disgusting.
I could rant about this for a very long time, but I have to go write a blog post on my class blog. I'm sure it will be riveting.
