Thats people for you. Its sad she has been like this. If you are really that bothered about her friendship drop her a private message and tell her how dissapointed you are she is behaving this way and can you not put your differences aside. Sounds like she has found something to occupy her mind and to hell with the others. I hope things work out ok in the end. Myself, I wouldnt bother with her again.  |

...first, you have to learn to accept the fact that you really don't have ANY say in the matter as to who is available to vote for. The political parties and big business make those decisions. The only reason that the vote is still offered is to delude the populace into BELIEVING they have some say in how they will be cheated out of house, home and occupation.  |

It could be worse; she could have been a fan of Rick Perry.  |

I just don't get it. I totally respected her opinion based on the fact that she'd done her homework and this is what she wanted. I say one little thing and she acts like I'm an anti-American... Jeez! It's the small mindedness of it all. Yes MomaBug, I suppose it is better I learned after 4 years and not 20. |

some people just have this way of wanting their opinions and thoughts to be the only important ones, and no one else's counts or matters. Sounds like she's zipped herself pretty tightly with her opinions and if you don't agree you are out of her singleminded loop. I don't discuss politics with anyone. I have my viewpoints and I respect other people's viewpoints. I think it's silly that you aren't allowed to dislike a candidate without losing friends...on the other hand, what kind of friend can be lost so easily?  |

I guess the good thing is that we weren't really close bussom pals or anything. She worked for me as a store a ssociate a few years ago, I then hired her to do some work for me when I was doing the freelance paralegal thing, and we sort of stayed in touch over the last few years. I choose my close friends very carefully. I have two. My best friend Sarah is extremely conservsative, and my best friend Jennifer is the total opposite. I fall somewhere in the mid-left.  We get along swimingly. |

Mrs. K...Yeah she was just an aquaintence from her point of view and from your side a friend. That's the big difference right there! What probably happened is she ran out of erb to smoke, and your post set her off onto a rant, and you became her whipping post because you were only her aquaintence on FB, and not truly a real friendin her mind. Just one guys openion. Don't let her spoil yer mood, you have too many real-friends here on USM to worry about her or her openion. A political difference is really a crazy thing to seperate from a friend for,...but was she really? GOD BLESS YOU and have a Happy New Year!...Corolator  |

Honestly, there aren't any more obnoxious political supporters than ronbots. He doesn't have a snowballs chance of winning, but they still insist on supporting him to an extreme. He's the republican party version of Dennis Kucinich. Kucinich is as extreme left as Paul is to the extreme right, and neither has a chance winning the mainstream, but their ego's tells them otherwise.  |

Everyone is diffeent in some way and nobody agrees 100% of the time any. If they split then the universe will replace them with a new friend.  |
| Date: 1/26/2012 12:15:00 PM From Authorid: 65690 It's best not to get involved in religious or political discussions with friends unless they're on the same page as yourself. It's hard to keep a friendship going when one or the other takes a strong position on the other side of one's beliefs. We tend to make friends with people who reflect our own beliefs and values. So maybe it was inevitable that this would happen. This is not always the case, but mostly is. Let her go and don't worry any more about her rejection of your friendship. It is how it is. |

I would never disfriend someone over politics. Being a conservative is my choice, and I argue my points when I feel I should. Sometimes the arguments become heated, but I have never cut a friendship because of it. I will say though that Ron Paul supporters (some) are a different breed. I think it may come from the fact that he is disregarded or downright laughed of by both parties to a degree, as well as the press. Supporting an "oddball" can make you sensitive I guess. I must say that some of Paul's beliefs are very true and hold water. It is the 20% or so that throws me off.  |

I have to add this. I have had a liberal friend disown me because of my political views. Was a friend for 25 years, and he could not handle the fact that I am not an Obama man. |

I ended one friendship over this election. It wasn't even about the election in itself, but it pushed it over the edge. She was complaining so much that Clinton lost; I mean she was posting on facebook every 10 minutes about how mad/sad/disappointed she was. I finally got tired of it and I ended up deleting her because it was irritating that all she could do was complain. I have friends who are Clinton supporters, friends who are Trump supporters, and etc and as long as they are respectful there are no problems.  |
