The "Elephant" in the Room

I'm the elephant in the room. I'll admit it.

Most of the people with whom I work know I lean way right. Many of the people I work with agree with me on many of my convictions and principles.

The problem is that these same people choose not to engage me in conversation on such matters, but to talk about inane topics such as sitcoms, party plans, and their kids' sports. BORING!

Thank goodness, a former colleague in the same district shot me a quick email today: "Does 'Palin' in Inuit mean, "What glass ceiling?" Thank God for her! Wish there were more like her.

What a perfect week to raise a hoopla about being a conservative in a liberal's world! With the likes of Sarah Palin, rising star in the Republican party, telling Barack Obama off in not-so-many-words...how can this not be watercooler talk? Oh, that's right, one would have to turn off the sitcom and get out of the mini-van in order to watch the hoopla during the week.
