LP, I've said it once and I will say it again....

I am a Republican, so long as the party stands for what I believe in. If tomorrow the Republicans decided to do a 180 and completely change what the party is about, I would no longer be a Republican.....so...yes, in a way. I have my beliefs and convictions, and then I do my research and figure out who I will support/vote for (when the time comes) based on who I want to represent me. I don't just go out and say, "I'm a *fill in political party name* because I am!". I base my decisions on fact and research, not what looks good or is popular with my friends.. That being said....
I support our President. If I could have voted in the last election, I would have voted for President Bush. He is a man of character, conviction, truth, honor, morals....everything I would look for in a leader of a country. He believes in what I believe in, and stands up to his word. He is very direct and to the point when he says he's going to do something.

So....in short, yes I am.

On another note, just because you are going to school to be EDUCATED doesn't mean that everything they teach you is correct and/or right. School gives you the building blocks for you to make decisions and choices based in fact and logic...any opinion/belief someone has should not be brought up in a classroom, unless it's meant for discussion and debate and isnt' being taught as truth. Just because an opinion came from an adult doesn't make it the God's honest truth.

Ok...I'm done ranting....wow...
