I loathe some people...
I was talking to someone while buying moisturizer, and while she was ringing me up, she noticed my Kerry button, and said that she was still undecided. Since I was in no mood to get into a discussion with someone when I was semi-late for an interview, I just asked why she was undecided...

This was her reply:

"I don't like Bush or anything he has done, but I think we might want to keep him until we finish the war".

I rolled my eyes, grabbed my bag, and walked away...

1. You could have said
if he's left in, we won't "finish" the war...We'll just be fighting new ones along with this one...

5. I should have,
But after overhearing some teeneybopper saying she liked Bush because he was "cuter", I just wanted to get out of the store. I am also tempted to return the unopened moisturizer so little Miss BushBot won't get the comission. I certanly paid enough for it.

This is a very liberal area, but sometimes you are just caught off guard. I was also late for an appointment, so this time I thought it was better to leave it alone.

3. I have a stupid friend who mail-in voted for * for the same reason
If he wins, when her now 14 year old son gets drafted I'm going to remind her of it.

6. Teddy Roosevelt's daughter, Alice, used to have a seat cushion
embroidered with the following: "If you haven't got anything nice to say about anybody, come sit next to me."

Seems like too much anguish over a little moisturizer, no?
