Of all the things I would call you, a "liberal Obama Democrat" is NOT one of them! It doesn't surprise me that you are a fan of John McCain's! I guess I would have been surprised if you weren't!
I've learned in my life that sometimes friends disagree, but they are still friends & they still wish the best for each other & they still love each other.
Many times in my life, I've had to agree to disagree with one friend or another. It's not the end of the world. It just proves that I am just naturally attracted to independent thinkers, which only adds to my life.
I'm so sorry that--in my humble opinion--you've made such a wrong political decision ;-) but, I still respect & admire you (for your heart, if NOT necessarily--in this case--your mind)! :-)
Newly-single GWM who is (trying to be) more than "just" gay, and white and male. Still learning & still trying to determine what makes me, me after "living" the first 3/4 or so of my life in the closet. I am discovering, little-by-little, that the answer to Cher's musical question, "Is there life after love?" is "Apparently so...". That answer, however, comes with an important codicil: it doesn't mean that it'll be easy or heartbreak-free; as the old Lynn Anderson song goes--none of us is "promised...a rose garden".
There are many little quotes, sayings, and other little bits of wisdom that have helped me to understand my life just a little better. A soupçon of which follows:
“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” --Maya Angelou
"It's not what you are that holds you back, it's what you think you're not." --Denis Waitley
To Mr. Waitley's point, I am also beginning to see that sometimes the greatest hindrance to a joy-filled life is the person living that life because we believe we don't deserve it...but we do...ALL OF US do.
