First Trish and I get yelled at by the guy at Cup-A-Joe, then today, as I was leaving Mercy Hospital with Jessica (whose mom just had major surgery to remove a cancer from her lung) we were yelled at by this guy smoking outside the door.  Apparently he is eagle-eyed, having spotted my 3/4" by 1/2" Dean lapel pin on my coat, so he launches into this tirade as we walk by about how "you liberal yuppies running this country are the worst thing to ever happen to it with your computers and stuff."  So odd.  At first I thought he was some homeless man muttering to himself, but apparently not.  And what really kills me is this was outside a HOSPITAL!  For all he knew, we could have had someone die or be seriously hurt, but he chose that as the best time to attack two people he didn't know.

Don't get me wrong.  I have friends who are conservative.  Some that are even arch-conservative.  But at least they are civil about it and we can respect that we have different points of view even if we don't understand them.  But these hate-spouting people, they're just too much.

Oh yeah, I might be on The Today Show tomorrow morning.  They interviewed me on the street today, so we'll see.
