Graciousness: NOT a G.O.P. value
When I watched Bill Maher interviewed on Larry King earlier tonight, one thing he said that stuck out in my mind was how ungracious so many Republicans seem to be after the election. For some reason, they're not as busy celebrating as we thought they'd be--instead, they seem intent on emphasizing to liberals how they don't "get it." I think this made such a strong impression on me because I read two letters in THE SUN-SENTINEL (my local paper) that show that, instead of just feeling good about winning, the Republicans have to shove how RIGHT they think they are in our faces any time they get the chance.
The first letter is something else, is it not? I could practically taste the bile coming out of this gentleman's ears. I've always gotten annoyed when a right-winger couldn't make his or her case without almost immediately lapsing into a personal attack. I see this deplorable behavior won't be going away anytime soon.
Here's the second letter. Gee, this sure is a nice, mature way for "winners" to act, isn't it?
