balmofgileadI've been detecting lately, ever-so-slightly, that there are parts of me (er, of my brain) that lie on the conservative/Republican/not-pinko-commie side of the attitude spectrum. It's just a glimmer, not something I can quite pin down the area of, though I *do* know it's not in terms of the typical social issues that so many people associate with the Republican/Democrat//Conservative/Liberal divide nowadays (e.g. abortion, The Environment, tolerance and multiculturalism, God, yada yada yada).
It might be something about fiscal policy or government, but as I said, I can't quite put my finger on it. [Probably because I stay out of those things to a large extent.] I want to figure things out sufficiently that I can put my finger on it. Why? Well, I think it's because otherwise I'll have the tendency to simply assume ALL the exact stances and opinions of people whose liberal stances on various social issues I agree with. (Damn that's a painful sentence. Sorry.) That's...that shows a lack of intentionality. I like intentionality.
