I received an email today insisting that I should reach out and hug everyone and then pass the email on. Nice, sweet sentiments for the day and I'd have 'good luck' if I did it, too.
Wow.
However, I thought, would I want to hug a Republican or any person from the present administration? Could I hug one after all the bad they have done for the country and world? How would I be able to discern whether or not the person was a conservative or not, as I reached out to give that hug? Cold chills and shuddering entered my body at the idea.
So, if people want to insist about hugging everyone, I would have to insist on a little surveying before I decide to hug or not.
The image from www.grad.washington.edu. would be good. A one-page questionnaire, containing at least the following:
Name
Address
Email address
Telephone number (At first glance, you don't know. You might need this information after the hug because it was so heartwarming).
Intentions (I would have to put this on the survey. Is this going to just be a hug, John McCain-style? A hug and a squeeze? A hug and with a little peck on the cheek? Etc.)?
Activities (A necessary question for those who might full of odor. Wet from sweating out a trial for leaking, taking bribes or worrying about the porn downloads on their laptops).
Aspirations (Simple question really for conservatives, meaning: are you following "the" advise, driving forklift or running for President like everyone else)?
Religion(s) (You just knew this would have to be there).
Eating Habits (I'd want to know if this hug would be a warm Louisiana chocolate flavored or a garlic filled New Jersey mafia hug, wouldn't you)?
Passions (This would be on the survey because a wouldn't want to force hug a pedophile or be hugging and suddenly a little jealous boy comes out screaming at me).
And last on the survey, I'd expect to know their Political Leaning. An answer something like if they are moderate, liberal or don't know. A Republican might try to fool or lie on this question because they have a great deal of trouble with the truth, I realize that.
I know, I know what kind of hug I would feel if I were to accept a Republican's hug this Valentine's Day: after a check around to see who's watching, a quick lifeless hug, release and a plead for my vote.
As the quote was written: Sorry Darling-I Can't Hug a Republican!
