OMG. So strange to see a comment about my little home town. I still have family there. Most are R wingers to different degrees. My immediate family was mainly democratic leaning. I'm a proud bleeding heart liberal and was raised that way. Mostly got it from 8 years of catholic school... before everything got so political back in the 60's. Anyway, proud that you took a stand.
