Politics Making Strange Bedfellows

Posted by michael on from the ms.-right-now-also-desirable dept.

loid_void writes "Leave it to Reuters to report that the run-up to the U.S. presidential election is casting the spotlight on a new crop of Web sites for political-minded singles who are seeking Mr. or Ms. Right... or Left. But as such sites make small gains in the polls, another debate is brewing among singles in this politically divided nation: Is it better to find a like-minded mate or to cross party lines in the search for true love? Reached last week on his cell phone at the Republican National Convention in New York, Brian Barcaro said he does not interparty date and has no plans to start... let the debate begin!"

    So you really think your personal beliefs about abortion and gun control are determined by your party affiliation?

    Wow.

    Yeah, you wouldn't get along with a liberal at all.

  5. My interparty relationship is not working out well by zardinuk · · Score: 1, Funny

    When my girlfriend starts argueing her pro gay marriage pro animal rights viewpoints, I get the impression she is a tool for some billionaire running for president. I can't convince her that killing fetuses is evil, our dogs are happy dogs and fish tastes good to eat. She doesn't like fish. I tried to get her to take a bite of my tuna sandwich one time and I almost made her cry. She cries a lot though. Maybe a conservative girl wouldn't cry so much, and she would make me tuna fish sandwiches everyday. I wonder how well she could handle a trip around the world in a sail boat (one of my life goals) if all we ate every day was fish. This is serious food for thought.

    I can tell you this much from hard experience:

    If your hot young liberal wife starts to turn Republican with age, you're not going to get your *ahem* needs met like you did before you got married.

    Led by John Hlinko, one of the people behind the liberal group MoveOn.org (http://www.moveon.org), ActForLove's motto is "Take Action. Get Action."
