This is a Street Prophets open thread. Feel free to come on in and discuss the day at hand, or offer thoughts, or just hang.
Tonight I am thinking about people who are relatives and/or friends I have on Facebook. Below the orange thingy, you will see some comments from those who are proud to be Republicans:
Is Nancy Pelosi in middle school or just half a nutjob?
If you voted for our current president in 2008 to prove you weren’t a racist, please vote for someone else in 2012 to prove you’re not an idiot.
I will not be forced to learn a foreign language to accomodate (sic) illegals in my country.
The country has a serious deficit problem because of the democrats and their reckless spending over the last 60 years starting with FDR.
When you democrats stop your vote producing welfare state, and your public employee unions stop their greed, maybe we will get back on track, until then, not a chance.
Sigh….
I have liberal, Democratic friends; as well (thankfully!) But my thoughts are on those who are not. I post all sorts of facts concerning the economy, education, global warming, health care, etc. and it doesn’t seem to make a dent in these people’s skulls. They just knee-jerk reply. I don’t think they even read things I’ve posted.
I won’t give up! If I can even reach just one of these yahoos, I will consider it a success.
How about you all? Anyone of you working to convert the masses of conservative idiots? (Yes, they may be family and/or friends, but they are still idiots!)
I had a cheeseburger for supper with a Straub’s. What was/is for dinner at your place? Come on in and let’s chat!
