about flashlight
I don't really consider myself liberal or conser... Okay. I'm quite liberal. But, not unreasonable.
...and yes, that's possible. It's just that life not looking like Leave it to Beaver doesn't scare me.

Plainly and simply, this group is for those of us who judge others when they use poor grammar. It happens a lot on GOLO! We can excuse the occasional typo or even the misspelling of difficult...

LOL!... I see I'm not the only one who enjoyed this sentiment. Some bloggers have only one string on their guitar and they pluck it.....over and over.

Is this the "I know you are but what am I" defense? I think Pee Wee Herman has a copyright on your brilliant rebuttal.
Let me reply more directly....
I reject the premise of your statement in that it is based upon your perception of what "conservatives" think, and not on any sort of reality.
The comparison of the two reunning mate pairs is not accurate:
Bush having served in an elected executive position while Obama has not.
Cheney having been White House Chief of Staff, House Minority Whip, and later Secretary of Defense, whereas Biden is Chair of two Committees in Congress.
So let me repeat, thinking is NOT your strong suit.
