[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Republican charter family at HRCLIS. I'm pretty sure we're the only ones. Sorry. This area is not open-minded to non-liberal viewpoints IMO. There may be others, but we're all in the closet. I smile politely when when bold progressives unabashedly provide a left-leaning view and I don't respond. You'll be doing the same. We'll be moving to VA when the youngest finishes K.[/quote]

As a Unitarian lesbian in a multi-racial family, I would welcome you to our wonderful school.   Part of being liberal, IMO, includes being open to all people and respecting their viewpoints, even if they differ.   Hope you find a welcoming place. [/quote]

That is awesome!  I am a "soul Republican" but unfortunately don't feel I can be open about it around my more liberal friends.  Nice to hear someone who is truly welcoming of others' viewpoints/different ways of thinking.

I kind of understand what OP is saying...it's almost like you have to have a secret handshake to find out if someone else is conservative, at least in the social/work/school circles I'm in.[/quote]

I get so sick of Republicans thinking that everyone is supposed to "respect" their "different ways of thinking."

If your way of thinking involves voting for people who would pass laws that restrict my rights, then I absolutely do NOT have to respect or tolerate your views. I have to fight them with every last fiber of my being.[/quote]
