I honestly don't know what to say...

I think it's a waste of breath to categorize someone based on what they listen to. I have an incredibly wide selection of music. One of the members on this site has to put up with it all the time. If your friend doesn't know enough about you to know that you don't support Obama, and then throw you in with the hippies/libs/Obama supporters just because a certain tune sounds good to you, then he's obviously the one with the problem. You don't have to prove anything to anyone. People who truly know you, should know what you are and what you stand for.

Loan $20 to a friend and never see them again, well, you got off cheap as the saying goes.
My neighbor's wife and I are almost polar opposites in regards to politics. They have a key to my house, I share the fish I catch with them, they share their garden surplus.
Politics be damned, true friends can still be friends.

Guess I just don't get it. I thought that's what friends are for. I have a buddy who admitted to me that he often watches the cooking channel. So now I constantly bust his chops about being gay. Also, giving each other the middle finger or calling each other an assortment of colorful names is pretty common place. Heck, if i found out he listened to any "non-conservative" music I would probably make fun of him too.

Of course, I would never call him a liberal or an Obama supporter..... them's fightin' words.

Doesn't really matter what kind of music you listen to, but your money supports what those people support. I TRY to think about that when I spend my money, but at the same time I am not going to live my life worrying about what will piss people off.

I'm glad you told him how you feel but I think losing a great friend you grew up with because he is pissed about you hanging out with hippies instead of in the mountains with your friend is a bit extreme.

I would at least talk to him and tell him to get over the kind of music you are in to and that he should know what your values are. But if I saw my best friend that I grew up with doing that stuff I would definitely say something to him.

remember:

Ask him if he ever had a terminally ill dog, if he would...

a) Throw it down a hole and shoot it in the face 100 times.

or

b) Take it to a vet.

Not sure exactly what you're getting at but I'll give that a shot.
Well update, since our last little tiff I told him to go watch "Shut Up And Sing", a documentary about the whole fallout from Natalie from the Dixie Chicks after she said what she said about Bush... funny how freedom swings both ways but people get so bent out of shape because someone has a freaking opinion. Ready... I'm going to get on national TV and say something along the same lines as the Dixie Chicks, do you think I'll get banned from radio stations?
"I'm ashamed that our President is from America." (Natalie said she was "ashamed that the president [Bush] was from Texas." I say I'm ashamed that our president [Obama} is from America (kind of)).

Honest to God I can't see the allure of the Grateful Dead ... it has to be all the drugs.


So as for Ann, that's two things I strongly disagree on (the first is Chris Christie).
