What if your Soulmate was a Freeper?

[Jack_Dawson]

Poll question: What if your Soulmate was a Freeper?

In other words, you totally connected on every level, physical attraction, values, kids or no kids, but this...person...loved the Shrub?

Reminds me of the "Curb Your Enthusiasm" finale.

[matcom]

1. they would NOT be MY soul mate

[mouse7]

12. Agreed.

I don't even understand how freepers function. Their minds areso alien to me that I couldn't communicate with them.

For example, how Carville and Matalin don't kill each other is beyond me.

[ronnykmarshall]

22. I'll second that.

The first thing my mom asked me when I met Michael was "He's a democrat, isn't he?".

[VOX]

33. Exactly. There's no footing when your SO/spouse thinks your "evil"

How in the hell can you have a stable relationship if your partner or spouse is a right-winger? You would have *no* respect for them, and they would be hating you for whatever the transgression-du-jour was for liberals.

Besides, it's more fun to bag on the right wing together -- my wife and I do it all the time! :toast:

46. what matcom said n/t

[camero]

2. Sorry

Sex trumps politics. :)

[neverborn]

7. Wasn't a question of just sex...

Wasn't a one-night-stand or anything... he said Soulmate. Big difference.

[camero]

16. IIRC, one of the options was

Great sex? Who cares?

[neverborn]

3. How would this person.,.

be your soulmate and agree with you on "values?"

FReepers are inherently opposed to the values I stand for.

[Deja Q]

4. If he could have a big one without BEING a big one...

I'd be tolerant, and I'm sure you won't mind if I refrain from any sad puns? :D

[stldemocrat]

Boyfriend

Unfortunately my boyfriend is a hardcore repuke. He works for a drug company and makes a lot of money, which probably explains why. What can you do?

[liberalhistorian]

26. What does he have to

say aboutYOUR politics? Do you guys get in a lot of arguments?

[stldemocrat]

29. Not really.

I just don't take anything he says on the subject very seriously. I guess I'm used to it, my dad is a republican too. My mom just has to keep him in line.

[mot78]

5. Great sex!

I consider myself pretty political, but it's just politics. I have quite a few friends who are rw-ers.

[Dr Fate]

6. I've seen some hot Republican girls...

But a Freeper "Soulmate?"

No way Ho-say.

[AntiCoup2K4]

8. Actually, she was.

Well, maybe not a Freeper, but definitely a Republican. But when it came down to it, we believed the same things 90% of the time. She was just too damned stubborn about the other 10%, such as failing to see the evil of the Bush Criminal Empire.

We're no longer together, but politics had nothing to do with it :evilfrown:

[stldemocrat]

11. I am...

just astounded that there are any women who are repugs. It seems like you would have to hate yourself.

[liberalhistorian]

25. I know, as a gal myself I've never

been able to figure it out and it drives me absolutely freaking CRAZY! It's like Jews being for Hitler or blacks being for George Wallace or David Duke.

I could NEVER date a Freeper or anyone who was for Shrub in the slightest, NEVER!!!!!

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

9. There's no way I could connect on the values level with a freeper

so moot question

[xultar]

10. Couldn't happen different species completely, they are amoebas

couldn't happen...

[Bundbuster]

13. That's a contradiction in terms

"SOULmate" and freeper. They have no souls and they'll freeze yours if allowed close.

[Blue-Jay]

14. That would mean that I had no soul.

I have some conservative friends (not Freepers, conservatives). I genuinely like them, but that's because I only see them in small doses. I couldn't go home to one. Impossible.


PS - I like how the spell check wants to change "Freepers" to "Creepers". :D

[liberalhistorian]

27. Jeepers, Creepers,

Please don't feed the Freepers!:evilgrin:

[NightTrain]

38. Thankfully, we don't have that problem. Right, Lisa?

:loveya:

[liberalhistorian]

42. No, Dean,

we certainly do NOT have that problem, lol!:loveya:

[boobooday]

15. I divorced him

A long, long time ago. He wasn't my soul mate BECAUSE he was a FREEPER.

[tedoll78]

17. I'm with Larry David on this one..

If you're a Republican, you don't get to experience the joy of sex with me.

Now, if all Dems were to do that.. wow..

[sablescort]

18. The wife's a freeper....

even though I'm a Kerry-ite, I don't care about the politics in the bed as long as the slam-bam, thank you ma'am is great.....

After all she oftnetimes end up sleeping on the sofa than on our bed.

[tigereye]

20. wouldn't be a soul mate without similar politics and views

although I did have a Rep bf in high school - he wanted to work for the CIA and everything. But he took too many drugs ( and was a little kinky too, at least for high school)that he couldn't get in. Probably for the best. So. Don't know if he's still a Rep or not.

[mkultra]

19. this is a silly premise

Its like saying what if it could be day time and night time at once.

[Zorra]

21. Could not be my soulmate.

Loving Shrub is a sure sign that he would be way too far down on the awareness scale to be even remotely compatible with me, no matter what he looked like. We could not possibly share the same values based on this alone.

[cmf]

23. No way.

It's just not possible. A Freeper's ideals are so diametric to mine that there is no way it would work.

[SarahB]

24. I could never get past this

I don't believe in soulmates anyway, so it doesn't matter. I think it's a dangerous way to think.

[SendTheGOPPacking]

28. Wouldn't happen. I can't connect on that level with a freeper.

[djeseru]

30. Never had a lot a patience

for the right-leaning agenda - never would have fit in to begin with!

[buddhamama]

31. no way

there's no way a soul mate of mine could love the Shrub.
we couldn't connect, just the opposite total disconnect.

[geniph]

32. How could that be?

How could one have a soul-mate who was a soulless sheep?

[blondeatlast]

34. Repugs always seemed to be attracted to me (I'm far from the

hippie chick type). I dated dozens of them--ONCE.

Happily married to a thoughtful left of center type now.

Nothing is worth that hell. NOTHING. Not great sex (never had it with them anyway), not money, not even otherwise an exceptional personality.

[liberalhistorian]

41. You make a good point

about repukes and sex, why is it that repuke men just aren't that great in bed at all (and I know that from experience, lol!)? I NEVER had great or even good sex with repuke men.

Wouldn't know about repuke women, though, maybe some of you guys who've had the misfortune to be with repuke gals could enlighten us?

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

36. Can anyone explain James Carville and Mary Matalin?

I mean, outside of a BDSM kinda thing?

:shrug:

[blondeatlast]

39. That can't possibly even explain it. It's unnatural, I swear. nt

[blondeatlast]

37. What a great thread to bring out the Friday night freeper lurkers

into the open!

It'll be interesting to watch this develop...

[Lizz612]

40. I couldn't do it

Not because they're a freeper, but because politics is just too important to me. I talk about it, I go to protests, I volunteer for campaigns, I am idealistic. Someone above said "Its just politics." Thats what I thought before I went to a conservative Catholic school for two years. I realized it wasn't just politics for me, its part of my mindset, part of the way I think and react. I'm not sure I would get past the first few dates, much less to the point where I could consider them my 'soul mate.'

[MAlibdem]

43. if they shared my values

they wouldn't love shrub.

w/e, if she was hot, id just badger her and keep her inside all day on election day with sex...and sneak out at some point to vote and hold signs...hmmm, that'd be hard.

[ButterflyBlood]

44. Then they wouldn't be my soulmate

this is basically an oxymoronic question.

[bucknaked]

45. My ex was a freeper-type all that time...

8 years, and that wasn't even what led to our relationship's demise. That's fine though. I don't let politics absorb my life to the point of eliminating good sex. :p

I'm just kidding. Actually though, my current girlfriend likes the worse music, and it's harder to deal with than my ex's politics.

[THUNDER HANDS]

47. I'd have to say a person's personal politics matter little to me

If she'd be willing to accept me as a liberal I'd be willing to accept her as a conservative.

[Katha]

48. I could date a Freeper, possibly

but never marry one or have a serious relationship with one.

Luckily, my boyfriend is extremely liberal (almost anarchaically so!) and can't stand Dubya. I think I'll keep him. :)
