Yeah, I got into it with a lefty yesterday at work, quite by accident. When he claimed that there was no proof that Iraq supported terrorism, I knew there was no middle ground and I needed to disengage. Still took five more minutes to slowly back away far enough that I could safely suddenly run like hell.
I want to give props to FR though -- before I decided to disengage we were fighting like jedi warriors with light sabers. Every claim he made I was able to counter. Then he'd change the subject or change tactics. Poste, Riposte. It was just like on TV!
BTDT. And if he could see what I have seen he'd never open his yap again.
