I just got back from a trout fishing trip with some friends. Somehow Kerry came up, and I mentioned the fact that the War Remnants Museum in Saigon/Ho Chi Minh City has a photograph of John Kerry honoring him as a NORTH Vietnam war hero, and that this made Mr. Kerry a traitor to his country.
A friend of a friend who was fishing with us WENT OUT OF HIS MIND. He said it was a lie, and the the Bushes were this and that and the other thing. I offered to give him my copy of "Unfit for Command" and he said there was nothing but lies in it, even though he has never seen it.
It was pretty incredible. There are some deeply disturbed Liberals out there right now, and like all people who wear "peace" on their sleeves like "the religion of peace," I fear violence when John Kerry suffers a humiliating defeat this November.
If it's not close, they can't cheat, but I am betting that soon you won't be able to tell the difference between a Liberal and an Islamofascist.
Sorry for the vanity, but this encounter really bothered me.

They are coming to take them away HA HA.
I can't remember the rest of the song.
another thought about myself....I wonder if I sounded as nutzie about Clinton as these people do about our President.. everywhere I went back then, I got into fusses with folks wanting to defend that traitor lying coward loser...
I have run into a few. Got a neighbor like that.
Best to go around them -- way, way around.
Hate is a sight to behold, from a safe distance.
If you face this situation again, try saying, "Well, I would offer you my copy of John Kerry's book, The New Soldier,(I think that's the name of it) but he won't authorize the re-publication of it."
Let me know how that goes over. After you come out of your coma, that is.
Yes, but I am not outing Dan Rather. :^D
Thanks for the concern, though.
BUMP
VOTE!
VOTE!
VOTE!!!!!!!
I predicted over a year ago that rabid leftist reactions would become more and more violent as they fight to keep their carefully constructed fantasy worldview from falling apart.
We're seeing it big time now. You're right to fear violence from the left. Their actions are bound to keep getting worse.
I was JUST THIS MINUTE thinking about that... I've posted that before a few times when commenting about Edwards....yep..you are so right...thanks for reminding me..
Some violence after Kerry's defeat wouldn't suprise me either. Perhaps it will serve to expose the rabid Bush-haters for who they are and we can finally lock them up - Gitmo might be a good start.
Liberals are rabid and blinded to the truth by their liberalism. You CANNOT reason with a liberal. Liberalism is a disease.
Little difference between your friend of a friend and MSM. And OF COURSE it's maddening. There is no truth--remember that; it's perception.
A LOT of freepers in a lot of posts are stocking up anticipating violent rioting for a while after the election. Its possible.
There are several of this category who hang out at my after work "watering hole" (i.e., dive), several of whom actually have pretty good jobs. I have invariably found they were raised in union households, and the most unreasonable of the lot in highly religious union households. I'm fascinated by the suicidal nature (in the case of one of the denizens of my hang-out, literally so) of these people, and have always hoped to stumble across a good book explaining what it is that channels people into liberal/socialist mindset. But, it seems like I've always got better things to do.
They're ridiculously easy to defeat in a debate, and probably the best reason I was offered to stop debating one of them early this year was that he would be glad to go out to the parking lot and beat me up. I'm a little old for that sort of thing, so I just avoid political conversations with him. I did give him a copy of the forged Rathergate documents, which annoyed him something terrible.
The longest river in the world is the one called denial.
Never underestimate the danger from stupid people in large groups.
It is troubling, largely because it is so irrational, and the perps are impervious to discrepant information.
These people have made it intensely personal, so their beliefs systems have snapped shut like a box. It is closely related to clinical paranoia.
"I wonder if I sounded as nutzie about Clinton as these people do about our President."
You had good reason, they do not. One can differ on policy, but President Bush has done nothing to earn the vicious hate directed at him.
So the big question is: Did you catch any trout? If yes, what river?
You should have asked him who TeRAYza gave her tax refund to. Oh, I forgot, she won't release it. If nothing else you should have asked him to explain Kerry's stance on Iraq. Be careful though, if you make him think too hard he might have about 4 seizures and you might have to call 9-1-1.
I was driving back from Sams yesterday and this guy in a car in front of me had about 10 bumber stickers shredding Bush. Stuff like Emporer Has no Clothes, Bush Sucks, We are safer now. yeah, right etc. However, there was not 1 sticker saying who the guy was voting for. Not one Kerry or Nader sticker. I think this guy is tipical of the Dem voter this year. I don't think you can win an election with that attitude. This guy will go to the polls to vote against Bush but Joe sixpack won't. Kerry gives nobody a reason to vote FOR him. Not even this Bozo with all the stickers new why he should vote for Kerry.
