5. Actually it was a comment I made just today
Edited on Wed Sep-09-09 05:56 PM by notadmblnd
in my local paper when a poster referred to his drug addicted, pedophile gawd rush limpballs. I asked what it was Rush did to earn and keep their following;

Share his Oxycontin stash or go to South America with a suitcase full of Viagra and bring back little brown skinned boys for them to bugger?

6. I don't argue with them,some are my very dear friends. We just
agree to disagree and move on.

We all have the same problems and joys and we proceed together through life.

9. me too for the most part
I throw some religion at them (Jesus was a liberal) at times, but otherwise, I live and let live.
I have no tolerance for bigotry or homophobia, but other then that, I can get along fine with most.
Oh yeah, I really hate cruelity and stupidity, but I find much of that in our own party as well.

11. I had to do that with my neighbors
even say the words agree to disagree, but it has left us with little to talk about. Sometimes its almost funny how we pass and talk about the weather, our gardens and grandkids.

And since both our grandkids live out of state...we mostly have fluff or long garden conversations!!

7. I have an alcoholic neo-con jewish friend
once during an anti-minority rant I replied, "Yeah. And the jews kill God. We should open up a concentration camp and kill all the jews!" He replied, "Fuck YES!" then paused and said "wait a minute." Then laughed the way drunk neo-cons laugh when they realize how full of shit they are.

8. "I agree with that! (pointing to sign). Just where are the weapons?"
Edited on Wed Sep-09-09 06:03 PM by KansDem
I attended a rally the Saturday before last and waded through the anti-Obama/anti-health care demonstrators on my way to the other side, and encountered someone with a sign that read, "Stop wasting my money!"

He had no clue as to what I was referring...

19. not so much a rebuttal or "in my face" ,but read a few of em a Hitler quote
about morality and Christianity and got em to agree that this sounded like a good quotation before telling em who said it. Conversely have also read em "anti-Christian" quotes by Jefferson, Washington, etc that they thought sounded unpatriotic, anti-American etc before telling em the source of the quotes. Mostly they just grumbled and changed the subject or walked away.

20. I think mine was
a little borrowed from here and my post about racism/Obama disagreeing...

I said you know what's worse than being accused of racism, the actual ACT of racism. Maybe next time a republican official sends an email with watermelons on the White House lawn the tea baggers can protest that. Or maybe the only thing that gets them angry enough to protest is taxes?

23. To a Republican endodontist (root canal dentist) who works in the same office
as my husband, when he was blowing off about "socialized medicine" and the "rationing" that will most certainly come, I asked, "did you become an endodontist to help people, or just to make money?" He never answered me, just walked nervously away, Just for background, I'm an RN who spent all of her nursing career working in a not for profit teaching hospital in Kansas City MO. I am not Mrs. Nice Guy any more.
