Do politics get in the way of your life in area's outside politics?

[The Straight Story]

I see people who won't watch movies because a star in it is a lackey for X party, they won't spend money in red states, and so on, etc.

Does politics go to such a deep level that you won't do things you may like to do if you know that company/person X does not share the same faith/party/politics as you?

1. Nopity nope....with the exception of a few overly obnoxious examples.

:hi: For example, I love Everybody Loves Raymond and thought Patricia Heaton did an admirable job...even though I abhore her politics and think she should sit down and shut up about it. :hi:

2. In some ways......

Like I get conscious of buying things from Wal-Mart for example, or say like our local car dealer is a well-known Republican and I'd never buy from him. I'd have a tough time dating a far-right Republican woman, but probably not a moderate one.

3. So you would not date Ann Coulter ;) LOL (nt)

4. I just don't think we'd get along too well :)

5. I didn't really used to think much about that, but now I do.

Probably because before Republicans were merely fiancing detestable policies, where as now they are financing FASCISM.

That makes a bit of a difference.

6. didn't used to but * has changed it all - conversations that

can not be had anymore - or if I say
welcome to * world - that just about ends anything - the conversation has to stop

one person said you mean post 911 - I stopped and did not go further
because my next comment would have been LIHOP or MIHOP

a best friend and I haven't not been talking - it is just painful
I don't wnat any * voters in my life
I am very careful to be quiet until something happens - then people know

The whole rw thing just infuriates me
