I am not that well versed in stamps. What were the "blue and gold ones"?

What a dolt. Everyone knows you can always buy those nice little heart stamps they use for wedding invitations. Oh wait. Those probably promote marriage and besides, I think you have to pay extra for them. ; )

Funny story. It's funny that liberals are always looking for a good fight over how we shouldn't fight.

My word! That takes gall. Even if I disagreed with someone, there is no way I would ever say something like that. Personal, mean and rude. Blech.

Tell that mom the rest of us love her son and thanks for raising him right.

As I left she yelled that I was a rightwinger, I told her "MERRY CHRISTMAS".

I responded to a co-worker last year with "Happy celebration of the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ son of God." When she wished everyone Happy Holidays in the lunchroom. She got a blank look on her face and has hardly spoken to me since.

I love being an instigator.

See post #39. There is a link to the stamp and what it's all about. They are Muslim. . .

Aren't those people just unbelievable? You did good, I hope it didn't upset your day. I tend to take these things too personally and would have been a hazard driving for several hours had it happened to me.

Will do. My bet is that if moms ever collected notes they could write a book about incredibly rude statements made by individuals while standing in lines. A lot of the extremists out there act as if they will burst if they don't say something stupid. Unbelievable.

What I have never understood about anyone who is confrontational is what they hope to accomplish. Did they expect her to say, "Why, I never thought of it that way?"

I make it a point to not be confrontational because it is generally the least effective way to convince others of the "rightness" of a point of view. It can be fun, it can be cathartic, but it is never productive.

Fortunately, they haven't figured that out yet. And I suppose I'm kind of grateful for that.

LOL... I love it! Merry Christmas to you, too, maineman! ;-)

Tell her to shut up and go get laid; she obviously sorely needed it.
