I’m still in a Blue County —Travis,Austin TX—but it takes 5 lefties against me in a debate for them to even have a chance to break even in points.

Man, I'm glad I left that sort of life behind years ago. I cut ties with every liberal I knew years and years back. Save for members of my immediate family, I don't have a single one in my social circle.

Back when I was still having knock-down-drag-out fights with libs, I used to get ganged up on like that. It's the only way they know how to fight. Get one alone, and they get angry and petulant, then start the name calling, because they're essentially unarmed.

In time, I just gave it up. I didn't seem to be changing any of their minds, and it was tiresome.

But, about five years ago, I was talking to a bunch of my liberal relatives and something funny happened. They all started listening. I mean, really - politely listening, and with great interest.

I didn't quite know how to react to their sudden shift to civility, but I kept on talking. I was really surprised at the questions they asked of me. They weren't combative or gotcha type questions, but sincere and curious. I was stunned.

About the only thing I could make of it, was that they'd wised up to the Obama Sham-Wow scam, and were finally realizing that maybe I was onto something.

I don’t try to change their beliefs—they have to do THAT themselves.

I just LUV exposing the lefties hypocrisy...and then watch them twist and turn to justify their opinions.

I’ll live in lefty neighborhood till I die...

WE— conservatives in lefty urban America-—are the front line troops in this war with the left.
