Reich-wingers have a passion for this, a passion for that, a passion for the other thing. It's all good.

Lefties are "angry" and that's all bad.

:puke: passion :puke: What the hell does that really mean?

2. I live in a red state. They say "passion" a lot, rather than talk about HOW things work.
Let's all get high together on our passions; that'll solve our problems and make things work better.

3. Well, a 'passionate relationship' is usually code for
a couple that spend more time fighting with each other than not . . . maybe we could look at it the same way with the wingnuts?

kind of kicked off the relationship. Love, marriage, baby carriage?

I'm going on 28 years. And there's passion left, though not as much. Thankfully!

To clarify, he's my best friend. We travel together, we hang out together.

The best part is he's my best friend. I'm very lucky to have found him.

6. I suppose I was referring to the
way couples who fight a great deal (as much as or more than they don't fight) tend to argue that their relationship is simply very 'passionate'.

Delighted that your relationship is still going strong!

7. Your post made me edit mine.
We don't fight-much. Ha!

We are friends, maybe finally. That's nice. Took long enough!

5. When you research the word,
you find that its origin is "pain," so I'm OK with that where the birthers and GOPigs (is that redundant?) are concerned................

10. They have a passion for evil and stupidity, that's for sure.
Where was this media when we were out in the streets by the millions in protest of the war?
