The term "closeted republican" seems redundant to me. Link

There I was 19 years old and a father.  I had a high school education and now 3 mouths to feed.  I was poor.   Let’s be honest though, I chose to be poor.  You see at 19 these are the kinds of choices you make.  You look in the mirror after rubbing one out and say, “Donviti, you want to be poor.  Being poor are fun.  Being poor are fine and dandy.”  So to provide for my wife and child I decided to enter a life of servitude. 

 

I joined the navy.  The recruiters told me how much money I would be making.  Holy shit! Are you kidding me? I thought to myself this is awesome!  I am going to get paid almost $16k a year!  Unreal!  AWESOME.  Don’t forget about 3 squares a day, great healthcare and a clothing allowance.

I have to give Joanne Christian some credit for meeting with me last week. I’m a Democratic blogger who has made no bones out of the fact that Republicans start off with a serious handicap with me based entirely on the fact that they are members of an organization that has turned this country into something monstrous and unrecognizable.

She was willing to try to make up some of that ground by meeting with me, and why not? I’m just the kind of Democrat that she is going to have to win over in order to have a shot of becoming a State Senator.

Did she do it? No. She was nice enough but I’ll be voting in favor of Bruce Ennis and against Joanne Christian on November 3rd. Here is why.

When historians catalogue the myriad of sins that Bush inflicted on this country, the politicization and outright GOP-ification of our once great military will be high on the list. Sad…
