If you want to get into how each political side portrays the marriages of the other side, that something else.
The Basis of my OP... And more Specifically the Individuals.
peace...
I was thinking a bit more about this topic, and specifically about whether some marriages are a marriage born out of political alliance, and something hit me.
So what?
So what if political considerations factor into the decision. The person you marry is one of the biggest and most important decisions you will make in your life. I'm married, I know you are, would you be willing to say you never examined your goals and your future wife's goals to see if they were compatible before you got married?
I could give examples from my own life of girls I could have married but didn't, as their goals and mine didn't match up at all. Is it so wrong to think rationally about marriage?
I didn't Marry my Wife because I Thought she could get me somewhere... Nor did she...
That's a Poltical Animal thing...
I have been told, as I am Sure many of use on Political Boards have, that I should've gotten into Politics...
**** that.
Almost ALL People who are in Politics don't give ANY Consideration to those that should Matter the Most.
I would NEVER Put my Wife through the Process and now that we have Children...
As much as I am Entertained by Poltics... Those who are Actual Players in it, Disgust me More than not.
And Ultimately, this is Entertainment for me and has been since I was VERY Young...
I Volunteered for (41) in High School... Wasn't Old enough to Vote and my Parents Voted Against him, so I wasn't going to Rally's with them.
Something about the Game Interests me and always has.
I was a in front of a TV during Watergate, as many in my Age Group were...
Nam was Shitting the Bed and the Country was in a Bad Way...
Carter and the Iran Hostage Situation brought Talk of Nuclear War with the Middle East...
We were Listening... At least I was.
Just as I am Certain that Kids were Listening when the TV was Arguing about Blow Jobs being Sex in the Late 90's and Parents doing the same.
I don't Like Reality Shows or much of what's on TV, but I am Always Entertained by Politics.
By Guessing it...
Observing the Sides in Situations, Similar and New.
Watching the Drama...
Researching the Details...
Anyway.
peace..
