Prices for whiny white-guilt liberals should be triple.

Or tell him/her that you are holding the item they want for a minority buyer.

I have had to say this on more than one occasion. Now I find myself installing rugs, changing light fixtures, and painting rooms myself. The next job is fixing the Ball and flapper in two toilets.

Also I have become my own geek squad for my electronics.

And that’s for all contractors, even those without bumper stickers (sigh).

make money and keep yer opinion to yourself.

They have a right to their opinion but, you have moral imperative as well....

That is to sell your products and make money.

It’s business, not politics.

There's a lot of “gettinevenism” in this conundrum. Folks have been at the pointy end of the stick for a long time, and the urge to rip somebody off in return is a very difficult temptation to resist.

Put some “Tea Party” stickers on whatever it is that you sell, and charge them extra for it.

Take their money, then make a donation in their name to your favorite conservative candidate. Watch heads explode!

Just conduct the transaction ethically — that’s the best revenge. To hell with his political beliefs — if you refuse to sell him the product, he’ll just obtain it elsewhere.

A libtard’s money is just as good as anyone else’s.

That really tells a lot about the individual.

One said “Obama Biden 2012”, the other said “Palin, Bachman both no brainers.”

That's far different. I go out of my way to avoid giving business to idiots like that. Posting political bumper stickers on their service vehicle -- in this divided society -- speaks volumes about their lack of good judgment. And those aren't the kind of people I'd want working on MY house.

Years ago we used to sell what the Wife called my art work. (I will just say I have a certain technical expertise when it comes to working with wood, but am not a artist for sure) Most items were Native American related. It always amazed me that some people would look, look, criticize, criticize, walk off, then later come back and buy several pieces. I got tired of arguing with them the pieces were not laser cut, but were cut by hand on a lowly scroll saw. Craft shows were profitable, but to attend required considerable travel, labor and expense. My sisters kept after me to try eBay and other auction sites. I finally did so and sales took off like I could never have conceived. Living in a small retirement community all shipping was done by USPS and shipping costs averaged 600-700 dollars a month. Here are just a few examples: Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Take their money and then send them a thank you note. Tell them that you appreciate their business and as a result, you were able to make donations to Pro-Life causes and Republican causes and that you were able to credit their using your business on the donation.

.Any suggestions?

Tell him you've just done your budget for next year and found out that you fall under Obama's definition of rich and that you have to cut costs.

Also luckily you've been able to find someone who will do it for half of what he quoted. Also mention that your only concern was that the other guy had a strong Spanish accent and was rather vague about his employment status. When you mentioned this to the other guy he re-assured you that the INS under Obama was now only interested in criminal illegal aliens and that you had nothing to worry about.

Where there is a willing buyer and a willing seller, no one is getting ripped off.

Tell him you have decided to make a donation in the amount of his estimate to Mrs. Palin for her work against people like him instead of getting the work done.

As for working for libs, the first rule of contracting is you don’t have to like someone to take thier money. This contractor would be glad to take your’s even if he knew you were a freeper
