That just lends credence to what I said, doesnt it. I admit what I said was purely speculative, but it seems, as Wojtek said, a lot of sociological and literary evidence bears it out--that many are essentially worshipful of power, and prefer to associate with what is tough and domineering. Liberal when it comes to myself, conservative when it comes to others-type stuff.
