Just argued with freepers! |
|
Not much to report, but I thought I made them look foolish. At the end, they called me closed-minded (because I called them chickenhawks) and told me that, if I kept it up, I'd only be able to converse with my Bush-Bashing Buddies. When I told them that that only left me about 70% of the population (according to the latest polls), I could live with that.
Sorry to be indulgent, but it's always SUCH a rush! Debating them almost feels like cheating because they have no idea how ludicrus and easily dismissably there points are.

2. I get mad at them and can't think. |
|
But you're so right - for instance, hearing them say Bush's War is preventing the Terrorists from hurting the U.S.
The only reason we haven't been hit again is that it would provoke sympathy for us in the World. They'll do it again when it suits them geo-politically.

3. i TRIED arguing my point with them, but they dont know what the hell |
|
they're talking about and they always end the "discussion" with either "F*** You you unpatriotic yadda yadda yadda" or the tell me to "get a life" so its really a waste of ones time. We are dealing with people who only know what they have been told by right wing talk radio and television. THESE are Bush supporters....they are zombies and this is exactly what Bush wants.

were you in Crawford this week? Ed Schultz asked truckers to drive through town and honk. The people at the Peace House said the horns were honking all night long. :)

6. Tried like hell to get there |
|
But once I requested a load to the Waco area, my VERY red company kept me on the West Coast. Got my DU sticker on my left window, though

8. I started an argument online and it never got past the first sentence! |
|
I said their argument was sophistry. And they accused me of using big words to hide my wrong ideals.
Whatever.
