Amazing people on salon
What I'm stuck by is the range of acceptance on this site. The maturity and understanding of the distinction between political identity and being a good person. I wonder would you see this level of acceptance on a right wing blog? Seriously are there any thoughtful and accepting conservative (right wing today i guess) sites. I miss thoughtful dialogue with conservatives, I have found that fox news and george bush have done more to polarize this country and the level of discourse than anything in my memory (and i was in college during watergate) My parents are loving, respectful and giving individuals , who are responsible for my values and ability to analyze and my love of learning. I blame Fox news for many of their frightening views (retirement and fox is a deadly combination), but the best parts of me is a result of their parenting and support. Parenting is a difficult task (impossible to do perfectly),"bad son" look at your good attributes and thank your parents for them and accept their limitations ( part of maturity is recognizing parents are just as flawed as the rest of us)
