One of the things that got me to move left was realizing my family was going to war for real for months in the middle of hostile territory. Realizing I was advocating tax breaks for companies that sent my communities jobs overseas. Advocating laws to restrict the rights of homosexuals that have done nothing to me and my family. Advocating removing help for families that have suffered economic toil. In other words I had become a monster and it took getting older to realize that.
When I look upon the faces of many tea party fools I see my younger face.

More name calling! Why are they "fools" exactly? Is it because their opinion differs from your own! Yep!
BTW, it sounds like you were a very weak republican if you bailed out because of personal reasons. How selfish to think only of yourself and abandon ship to all those you were once with. I'm glad I never served next to you in a foxhole! You're the type that runs towards the enemy with a white flag when you think the battle's been won in their favor. The word "cowardice" comes to mind.
But I for some reason don't believe that you have ever been a conservative. You're just too liberal to have ever been a real conservative. Nobody goes that extreme unless a coconut falls off a tree and hits them in the head!
