You don't have to be one or the other.

I don't see why opinions and beliefs have to belong to one political group moreso than the other. I have seen family, friends and the politically fanatic get angry with one another because they share the same title but not the same political opinion. It's so DUMB. That is why I claim to be an independent and still support the variety of viewpoints without being tied down to drama and conflict. Because lets face it, any way you look at it we have too many people spending way too much valuable time trying to prove the opposite view is "evil" or "stupid" and next thing you know....nothing was accomplished.
