Seriously? Tesbagger (former) friend on FB attack my son's class for voting for Obama.

Last edited Sat Nov 17, 2012, 07:05 PM - Edit history (1)

Last week, my son's first grade class at his PRIVATE catholic school held a mock election where Obama won 24 votes to Romney's 2. The teacher just recently put a poster with the results in the hallway bulletin board and I thought it was so nice that I took a picture and posted it onto my Facebook page. Unfortunately, some of the teabaggers on my list are still pretty sore over election Night, because I got got replies such as "Californians.." and "Even children like to get stuff for free".

I know it's hard to lose an election. I've been there. But if you're at the point where you insults kids for the way they vote, you really need to assess how old you are compared to the way you're acting.

Same last election, but then he is in Utah.

I told him I was very proud of him for standing his ground.

"Even children like to get stuff for free".


Yeah ... Like an education. Oh wait, where'd you go to school again?

And BTW, EVERYTHING children get is pretty much free, as their parent(s) pay for stuff ... F'ing moochers. I say let the parasites feud for themselves just like the rest of the maker class! Oh, wait again.

My daughters' entire elementary school (including both my girls) voted more for Obama then Romney. If someone attacked my kids over that I would really not speak to them any more.

Desperate people do dumb things. When kids act more mature then you do, you really need to reassess your life in general. I'm sorry that happened to you.
