Will you let politics get in the way of friendships?

[Erc]

If I let it get in the way, then I wouldn't have very many friends around these parts.

I don't talk about it, they generally don't talk about it...and when politically-related matters come up in conversation, as long as conversation remains solely on policy, not politics, the conversation goes along fine.

Of course, then they begin to assume that you're a Democrat/Republican/Green/Mad-Raving-Looneyite, and that can cause problems down the line.


Eh, Route 1 isn't my favorite road, but since it runs through my town, I have to deal with it.  Not too bad in that particular stretch of it.
