OK, OK, I’ll give you my opinion straight and serious; this is what I am doing: Cancel friendships with all known liberals. Period. End of discussion.
Yes, I did that. No phone calls, texts, emails, invites, nothing. I will not in any way participate with any Obama Voter that voted to do me harm. That is the way I look at it and it is the way I will act. I will refrain from any activities that in a direct or indirect way support, help, or sustain liberalism. Of course, I cannot possibly cut out all liberals as who knows what made my socks or gasoline, but anything I can identify and cut out I am.
For that invite to a liberal’s house: “No, thank you. I cannot possibly be friends with someone that votes to harm me. Voting Obama wasn’t funny, and it is going to have serious and harmful consequences to you and me both. Grow up and stop rebelling against your parents. Life isn’t a game.” I said that to more than one person lately. Friends? Screw them as they screwed me. With “friends” like that I don’t need enemies.
These friends go back 40 years, and believe it or not they were Reagan Democrats once and explained it to me (now they deny it: one of them has Convenient Memory Syndrome), but then Beastwoman and Slick jerked the government-check chain (one of them was working contract for Fedgov at the time), putting them in danger of losing their house, and ever since they've been wild-eyed Republican-haters. Republicans threatened them with destitution and homelessness -- it was in all the newspapers (they read the Atlanta Urinal-Constipation), It's a Fact!! So when I tell them what really happened, it's all just a bunch of lies that I've sponged off that lying, malevolent Rush Limbaugh. And it's All Bush's Fault.
So that part of the relationship -- acknowledging their reality -- has become pretty rocky, and one of them likes to play Set a Hook and Twist It to boot. But they're old, old friends and mean well otherwise.
At least they've figured out that Cynthia Tucker, the newspaper's editor, is a black racist. That's something.
