How Germany changed me from a Republican to a Democrat

March 19, 2010

Before I moved to Germany in May 2002, I was a lifelong Republican.  I came from a family of political conservatives.  I participated in Young Republican activities in high school and college.  As soon as I turned 18, I registered as a member of the Republican Party of Virginia.  I voted for Bob Dole over [...]

Your ‘Do You Want the Terrorists to Win’ Score: 100% You are a terrorist-loving, Bush-bashing, “blame America first”-crowd traitor. You are in league with evil-doers who hate our freedoms.

Bush is so full of it

He needs to wipe the smug grin off his face. I’m not in the mood for a further rant (my back problems make this difficult anyway). I’m still having trouble reading. Oh, my care package to US troops in Kuwait arrived and they liked it a lot. I need to write back to the guys, [...]
