Awful

Writer Can’t Believe She’s Dating A Conservative: “What If I Have Little Republican Babies?”


Guys, have you ever wondered about doing something like, really crazy?

For me, it would be cave diving, but for Huffington Post writer Tamara Shayne Kagel, it’s dating a Republican! Much to her chagrin, she has already knocked that off the bucket list she never intended to write, as we learn in her Monday column, “I’ve Never Dated Anyone Without Dating Their Politics, Too.” Earlier today, I noted that headlines are often exaggerations of a story, but in this case, the title isn’t detailed enough, as the piece is mainly about the author’s disbelief that she is actually in a relationship with a right-leaning man and that conservatives can be (*gasp*) intelligent sometimes.

As far as first world problems go, this tops the list:

“As a lifelong Democrat, I never thought I would be in this place. I never thought I would have to confront this dreaded unforeseen fear — the terror that is, for me, dating a Republican.”

Kagel, whose HuffPost profile reveals she resides in sunny Los Angeles, says she doesn’t even know very many Republicans, and the conservatives she does know “got made fun [sic] behind their backs, be it children or adults.” As a lifelong Californian who (unfortunately) spent the first half of my childhood in Los Angeles, I agree that conservatives are few and far between in the Golden State, but Kagel apparently hasn’t spent enough time outside her ZOMG SoCal bubble to know that she resides in the same state that once passed Proposition 8. Did all the liberals you know do that? Doubt it. Nevertheless, the Northwestern University graduate says there were a few GOP folks at her institution of higher education and expressed astonishment that they were smart enough to get into the same school she did:

“I know there were some Republicans at my college because there was a ‘College Republicans’ group on campus, but this was the Bushy era and the conservatives who were smart enough to get into my university were too smart to be vocal defenders of the Dick Cheney puppet show that was the aughts.”

Imagine that? Conservatives not only aren’t toothless simpletons who breed with their relatives, but have the brains to study among the likes of you. To be fair though, you praise their culinary skills, and that’s quite generous of someone who appears to think conservatives aren’t people but rather mutant pandas who should all move to a secluded island and away from valuable members of society:

“[F]or now, there are a lot of crazy extremist cooks running the Republican party and when you get into Santorum territory and Palin country, I want the freedom to openly mock and deride in a forum where I don’t have to worry about offending someone. Is that so wrong?”

If you can’t even define them, or correctly spell Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh’s names, then yeah. It is wrong. But back to my explanation: The main message of this writer’s piece is that she’s floored she has fallen for someone on the right — and also that he’s not a stupid idiot like the rest of his party:

“So how did I get to here? How did I come to date a man who told me he ‘liked a lot of Mitt Romney’s ideas’ and that he thought John Kerry wasn’t really a war hero and that cap and trade is a terrible system?…I get mad at him just thinking about our past political discussions. I can’t date a Republican! What was I thinking? What if I have little Republican babies?”

Don’t worry, you can put them up for adoption if they’re not “little social justice fighters playing pin your favorite president on the blue donkey.”

One of the commentators suggested Kagel “hang in there” and “aspire to be with someone who has an open mind,” and I can only hope this was partly directed at the writer, who it’s safe to say is not as accepting as she’d like to think she is. This nearly 1,400 word post also seems to disregard the fact that the writer is not, in fact, among the first to date outside party lines. She references Mary Matalin and James Carville’s famous marriage, but says she simply couldn’t take all the onscreen bickering matches, as if every single media dispute extends beyond the TV screen.

With all of this in mind, the final line in her self-congratulatory post is perhaps the most telling of her views:

“Now, if I could only get [my boyfriend] to start watching Bill Maher with me…”

Why. doesn’t. this. surprise. me?

    Stop being so awful. 

    For example, stop blaming a teenager for his own murder.  Stop scheming to prevent citizens from voting.  Don’t put the “small guvermint” (literally) inside a woman’s vagina. 

    Stop lying all the time about everything under the sun.

    You’re absurd, dude.  Who’s “blaming a teenager for his own murder”?   Quite the contrary — without actually having the facts of the case, Zimmerman has been convicted in the media.  If it turns out Zimmerman was the aggressor and killed this person without just cause, let him pay the heavy price for it.  That’s what investigations are for.  If it turns out that Martin doubled-back on Zimmerman and pursued HIM and went for Zimmerman’s gun in a scuffle, that’s a whole new kettle of fish.  Let the investigation takes its course.

    Only a far-lefty would make an argument that a picture-ID — something you need in this country to do almost anything important that requires identification — is somehow racist.  It’s the most pathetic argument ever made. Think of how many things you need ID for in this country.  But to vote?  How could we possibly ask people to identify themselves when voting.  What a travesty!  Newsflash, dude:  The only reason people don’t want picture-IDs for voting is because it will limit fraud, period.

    No problem,lady.
    Liberals are children, operating fulltime on their feelings, ready to burst out crying or to shriek maniacally with laughter at any moment.

    As most children grow older, they grow up and see the world clearly, and what they see is that the Earth does not revolve around them and their friends.

    So most drop their self-centeredness and begin to become conservative.

    The writer need not worry. She may grow up and learn something by hanging around with her conservative boyfriend.

  • Henry Wood

    This is the lying part.  This is one reason why you’re so repellant.

    What you guys have done since this Martin story hit the press, is to do every single thing you could to smear the victim.  I’ve seen you creeps, now describing him as a “thug,” and you’re accepting the killer’s story word for word even though he has every reason to lie.

    Zimmerman shot a teenager.  That warrants a real investigation.  If the media hadn’t gotten involved, there would have been no investigation at all.  The media isn’t to blame for the Standford PD failing to do the investigation.

    We have no problem with voter fraud.  Even a republican investigation showed that the incidence of voter fraud is tiny.  In many of the states passing these laws, we’re talking about 1 or two cases in ten years.  All together, in this study (again done by a republican lawyers organization), we’re talking about less than 200 cases of fraud in the whole country in a ten year period.  Count them yourself.

    http://www.rnla.org/votefraud.asp

    So your solution to this non-problem is to make it more difficult for MILLIONS of people to vote next year.  Now people have to clear an extra bar in order to vote.  You can say whatever you want about the importance of ID, but millions of poor people, young people, and older people do not have the ID you are requiring.

    The reason you are pushing this is because you’re afraid of the American voter, and you should be.

    Because you’re reprehensible people.

    This is sort of surprising… I was a year ahead of Tamara at Northwestern. I am surprised that she wasn’t paying attention to the fact that there were Republicans there, many who probably got higher SAT scores than her… God forbid that we be opposed to her ongoing war against Bush.

    The problem with her is that she left one liberal bastion and then moved to Southern California. She suffers from classic liberal vanity in that she refuses to admit that Republicans acknowledge there are serious problems one which we both agree. It is our approach that differentiates us.

    The liberal view is to tax and throw money at the problem.

    The conservative view is to empower people to make their own choices.

    I’m not shocked by the drivel in her article. That was basically what Northwestern was for four years.

    The mentality of Tamara Kagel is truly disgusting in this day and age. The idea that one can only be with, or be around other people who’s political views(something irrelevant to many people’s lives) are the same as theirs is inherently un-American. So as a life long Democrat her thoughts an opinions were indoctrinated in her at birth, and have dictated her social interactions since. And the fact that she was raised in an environment where people of different view points were mocked and ridiculed adds to the sickening mindset of some Americans. Its this type of fascist mentality we as a country have to move past. This isn’t Nazi Germany, this isn’t Stalinist Russia. We live in a country where you are free to agree, disagree, and think the way you want. People like her are digressive, and only perpetuate a superficial divide. She will surely brainwash her children to be void of self thought, and adopt the same mindset and intolerance that her parents decided for her. I am proud of the diverse opinions and backgrounds of my peers, and that we live in a country founded on the once preposterous notion of having the ability to think for ourselves and say what we believe without threat of persecution.

    The term “liberal” is one that changes over time. Many of the themes evident in your link can now pertain to modern conservatism. Liberalism originally referred to the rejection of mercantilism, having very minimal government, the advocacy of natural rights, and the rejection of absolutism which you clearly support. This is the foundation of western society, and has split into various view points since. Just because something has the same name as a word used to describe a movement hundreds of years ago, that doesn’t mean its the same. Did you even read the page you are linking us to, or have an education for that matter? Not to offend but this is basic history after all.

    Water pressure… um once again, read any of the energy acts that mandate water use, shower heads, sink mandates at the federal and state levels in terms of water pressure and use. All of the toilets, mandated flush rules that end up with crappy toilets that don’t work.

    The sort of carpet. Yea, hate to break it to you, but once again, that also is a real issue because of chemical changes that led to certain types of rug companies to go out of business, even though they aren’t problematic to human beings.

    Gotta love bleeding heart liberals like yourself who have no logic or reason.

    “On birth control, I’m talking about forcing everyone else to pay for it
    in higher premiums and your liberal fantasy world of FREE BIRTH CONTROL.”

    Didn’t you know that policies that cover birth control cost LESS than those that exclude it?  Yup.  Because covering birth control is cheaper than covering pregnancy.  That’s why you didn’t hear any insurance company complaining.  Also, didn’t you know that insurance is something people PAY FOR and therefore is not FREE?  Paying for something means it isn’t free, cleetus.

    The mandate is a Romneycare tax that you only pay if you don’t have insurance AND your income is well above the poverty level.  If you’re making lots of money, you’re going to want insurance coverage, if you have a brain in your head.  People who don’t have insurance are “free riders.”  They still get treated in the ER, but everyone else pays.  Didn’t you say you were against that?

    No one is checking your light bulbs.  Not now or ever.  Manufacturers have to produce more efficient  products, but the FBI won’t be hunting you down for your light bulb.  That’s hysteria.  Same deal with water pressure.  Show me one case where someone is arrested because their shower was too wasteful.

    Edison?  Are you still using a Victrola? 

    It doesn’t matter whether you declare that you’re a “social librul”  You’re still voting for the all abortion all the time party, and you parroted their lying talking points about birth control just now.  I call BS.

    “You are aware that they give away IDs for free if you are poor. All you have to do is walk downtown and you’re allowed to have an ID. ”

    More BS.  Many smaller towns don’t have a DMV or any other place you could get this done.  In Texas, it was shown that some people would have to drive >100 miles.

    For those of us living in larger cities, the DMV isn’t just down the street.  If you don’t have a license, you also don’t have a car.  So you’re taking the bus, if your city even has a functioning bus system.

    And if you’re older and can’t drive because your vision sucks now and your legs aren’t up for a long walk, you’re definitely needing someone else to give you a ride to get this ID.  And mind you these older people have been voting their whole lives with no problem.

    And all of this extra BS to “prevent fraud” which I already proved is NOT AN ISSUE using data from a republiklan group.

    I thought we wanted citizens to be able to vote. I guess some people want to make it as hard as possible because they are scared they might lose unless lots of people are prevented from voting.

    1) If we left things up to you, there would have been no investigation. 

    This term “lynch mob” has a history.  Trayvon Martin was already lynched.  No one wants Zim lynched.  We want him charged and tried.

    2) I want all eligible people to be able to vote.  No one wants ineligible people to vote.  You just want to prevent millions of people from voting because you fear Americans with ballots.

    3) Your big government ultrasounds are unnecessary.  If a woman is pregnant, she knows what that means.  She doesn’t need some fat slobbering pig like yourself to explain that to her.

    Can I ask a simple question?  How is ID going to prevent voter fraud?  I register to vote using my birth certificate or social security or whatever they require.  I go to vote and my name is on the register.  So, how is the fact that I carry ID going to help derail any fraud?  The fraud occurs when people register.  But then, the republicans have a solution to keep that from happening as well.  They give you 24 hours in Florida to get that voter registration in.

    First of all, it was your dearly beloved George W Bush who outlawed the lightbulbs.  Call Georgie about it.  He lives in Crawford, texas.

    As to the government making you buy something – no, you are damn right. You shouldn’t have to be asked to buy anything.  You should have to die instead of having a hospital to take care of you.  Now- that subject is closed.  If you don’t want to be insured, don’t go to the hospital.  Because I think the US Supreme Court would have no other choice but to say that hospitals dont’ have to take care of those who chose not to be insured.

    I don’t want Rush Limbaugh on my PUBLIC AIRWAVES, but apparently he has a right to be there…at least until the last advertiser is gone and he has finished bashing all the young law students he can bash. 

    Yes, Republicans like you don’t want to help anyone get birth control – even to shrink tumors, and you don’t want abortion, but you are unwilling to give any welfare assistance to the poor women who have these kids you were so determined to “save from abortion”.  Chances are that the majority will also end up in the prisons you have to pay for too.

    So, what is the purpose of the ID?  Do you really think someone will be impersonating a voter who has already registered by showing identification and any documents required that shows citizenship? 

    When you register, your name is put on a registration at your precinct. I can’t understand why you would think some one would actually go to your precinct and impersonate you so they could vote.

    But I will tell you what this would do to some people. My little aunt is 101 years old. She no longer drives, but she has voted since 1932. For the past 67 years, she has voted at the same place. now, you are actually suggesting that she needs an ID?

    Once upon a time, Jerry Falwell said he didn’t want everyone to be able to vote.  Just republicans.

    How un-American of him!

    Actually, in the case of Bush – I don’t think any of our votes mattered.  The only ones that seemed to have any say so  were those republicans on the US Supreme Court.

    You are a damn dumb reprehensible – obviously you have no mind of your own.  Gullible.

    Theignoranceofliberals -you are the stupid one.
    No, you don’t want all eligible people to vote.  That is the purpose of checking ID and “accepting gun permits but not student ID cards”.

    You are so damn gullible that you haven’t even thought about the fact that people have to prove they are citizens when they register to vote.  My 101 year old aunt has been voting since 1932 and in the same place for 67 years.  And now you think she has to bring photo ID with her?

    What a bitch.,

    Apparently he did, because there is a dead guy.
    I don’t care if he is an Alien critter.  He shot a defenseless teenager.

    I’m just wondering why republicans want to make this political?

    If you were an intelligent person, which your post clearly shows you are not, you would already know that the blue states support the fricking red states.

    I raised my son to think for himself and be independent.  He even liked Ron Paul but he will be voting for Barack Obama.

    Where did you get your figures?  I would be interested to know how you came up with 80% of the population as conservatives.  You wouldn’t be listening to that lying FOX again, would you?  You need to fact check everything they say.

    My parents taught their children to think for themselves.  They were democrats.  They ended up with 3 democrats and 2 republicans although one is going to be voting for Obama in Nov,.

    Apparently she followed the teachings of Christ instead of just quoting the Bible.

    We live in a country where we are free to agree, disagree – an interesting comment you made, especially in light of the republicans inability to ever compromise in congress.

    This person in this red state doesn’t take your socialism. He gets by with his own pay and makes it on his own. I can’t help what other people in my state want or need. I can only tell you to keep your blue money. I don’t want it or need it. You liberals can go back to your infanticide now.

    What’s sad is you thinking someone is a religious fantic for thinking it’s wrong to murder a baby.

    But you’re ok with the constant lies of you liberals?

    ps, NO WAY the first part of your statement is true.  That just proves my first statement. LIBERALS LIE!

    Try actually READING my comment.  I broke it down for you.  You’re just blinded by your liberal rage and didn’t see it.

    You prove over and over with every statement you make that you have no concept of what is truth and what are the lies you’ve been fed.  It’s sad actuallyi.

    actually yeah, it’s been a growing issue since ever.  voting fraud undermines the republic’s moral fabric more than anything else i can think of.

    Hmmmm….tell me….which religious right fanatic is fighting for the right to shove probes up women’s vaginas?  Not sure if I heard that one out our secret conspiracy meetings yet.

    Or possibly because conservative men stand to pee…and we don’t refer to our dick as a “mangina” like liberal “men”.

    They also have the highest number of diabetes cases – nothing but fat people living in those red states.  I know they are also racists, but they should listen to the First Lady talk about food choices.  With all the grease on that Southern food, it is a wonder that there aren’t more heart attacks too – oh, there are?  Of course.  See.  Those republicans need to get off their asses and exercise and learn the type of foods they need to eat and how to prepare them instead of whinning.

    I think it is just like a republican to not agree with information I gave on my family.  It definitely shows why there is such gridlock in congress.  If a democrat says the sky is “up”, you can be sure a fricking republican will disagree and say the sky is “down”.

    Well, your ignorance is showing then.  There are laws in various states, but the Governor of Virginia just signed the bill and a whole host of other “white Republican state legislators ” are trying to do the same in other states.

    I hope you caught the ironic tone of her article.  It is, however, and embarrassing time to date a Republican.

    Clearly, this isn’t Communist Russia.  I know this, because educated Lithuanians aren’t being sent to a forced labor camp were they are being worked to death, much like my great-grandfather…sore subject…but I digress.  Did you not grasp the humor in Tamara’s piece?  Did you not understand its farcical nature?  I found it reminiscent of Pope or Swift.  Thank God (that should please you Republicans) we live in a beautiful country where our opinions can be expressed in an open forum without fear of punishment.  Don’t take it so seriously, or you will find yourself with the same “disgusting mentality”  you believe Tamara to be guilty of.

    Unless she is trying to satirize a narrow-minded partisan hack then my point still stands. Whether or not her feelings and lifelong thought process is supposed to be funny or not doesn’t take away from that. It might be funny to people who share such a hateful world view, but to everyone else it is disturbing. The rest of your rant is irrelevant. Your blind accusations are silly and do nothing to refute what I said. I neither support the repub party nor do I have a preference towards any deity or religious establishment. You just prove yourself to be the same kind of fascist hack as the one you are defending. Have fun picking on them kids on the playground because mommy said their parent’s opinions are evil. When you’re done take a ride with mom to the local party establishment so you can plot against those dirty scum. Don’t forget to make your bigotry funny thogh because then it okay and shall not be criticized.

    wow- how tolerant of you. You’re family is so lucky that you continue to give them your precious, precious time, no matter how stupid they are.

    I want to be part of your family. Will you adopt me?
