Iw walked into a bar awhile ago, and on my third beer became engaged in conversation with a man of my own middle age who insisted I jostle with him on the subject of borders and the entry of "foreigners" into this country of ours. My usual first response to dialogues of this type is "well it's all George Bush's fault" which held little weight with the conversation wince the man quickly agreed, qualifying his agreement by disavowing all republicans and democrats, and quickly including Bill Clinton in the forum of despised ones at fault. I then resorted to the Jesus cliche, that Iwhile not an overt Christian, I believed in the principals of Jesus who loved and accepted all... the Mary's the young, poor, etc. This was not enough to stop the gentleman who suggested that I would give away my family's security and culture by acceptance of all. I thought and then said I have no family except that of the all, the one. He rattled on about "he who wins the vote owns the country<" and I couldn't help but get a jab in r3egarding the last "election" theft where fundamentalist christians "won"the election. To which he agreed, comparing them to Taliban, to which I agree. Was quite nice, that conversation.
