Maybe I'm just getting old or maybe I'm just getting really tired of the politics of late...
When I talk to anyone these days about what's going in D.C. I feel almost morally bound to identify myself as either Republican or Democrat (since the rest of the parties carry very little clout right now) and, increasingly, I'm becoming uncomfortable with either label. I always liked most of what the Libertarians believe in but even then there are limits to my adherence. I've searched in vain for the perfect label that tells the world the depth and scope of my political, moral and ethical beliefs. Centrist? Now that's interesting but not very descriptive. Hawk, dove? Nope, doesn't work for me.
How about "Citizen of the Still Greatest Country on the Face of the Earth in Spite of Its Problems"? (Drum roll, please.) Yeah, I like that!
So maybe I should re-title this piece "I Know I Am But What Are You"?
