Wrapped in the Flag

I’ve always heard that there were two things that you should never bring up in a conversation if you want to make, or keep, friends. Those things have to do with religion and with political matters. Well, I’ve always felt that religion is something that only affects those who elect to be involved in it, but politics is something that affects everyone. That’s why I’m as outspoken as I am and am constantly wearing conservative political t-shirts. The constant arguing in public with people I don’t know is getting a bit old. I needed a break.

I decided I wanted to throw a big party for all of my conservative neighbors. The problem with an open-invite party is that anyone can show up. All I needed to shatter my relaxation if for some left-leaning nut job to come and get me all riled up. The way I would combat this is by stipulating on the invitations that you absolutely must wear conservative political t-shirts to get in. There’s not a hardline liberal in the world who would make that sacrifice.

The day of the party arrived, and I was genuinely nervous about who might show up. I posted these invitations randomly around town and online, so it was entirely possible that a group of random liberals might try to crash it and ruin my night. I wanted to host this party with conservative political t-shirts so that I could meet fellow conservatives in the area and share ideas. The main motivation was to lay a foundation of support, collect email addresses, and organize for rallies and the such.

Luckily, the liberals stayed home that day. Not only did the liberals stay home, but the conservatives showed up in force. I had several people call during the week to confirm their invite, but many more showed up unannounced. My wife made plenty of snacks and we certainly had plenty to drink. The party went off without a hitch. Everyone wore conservative political t-shirts, as requested, that ranged from the hilarious to the plain outrageous.

Lots of really good, constructive things happened because of that conservative political t-shirts party. I met lots of connections that I have expanded into a really solid network of support for local issues that need right-wing people rallying behind. I also met some of my very best friends that I have kept to this very day. We still convene for the t-shirts party each year, people even going so far as to fly in from all across the country. We rent a big hall, drink, and enjoy the peace that comes from being surrounded by people who won’t shout at you for your opinions.
