Liberal Friends?
Well, that explains it right there.
I do know how you feel. We get in occasional dust-ups here at my office. I am usually the one to cut it short.
Normally we start off mildly, then disagree, then move to anger. There is always a bit of sarcasm on my part.
I stop because I can see they are going to lose, and it will cause weeks of icey realtions. I just want to wound them, I don't want to kill them.
The only time I felt the total isolation that you do is after the 2004 election. They had prepared a victory party for Kerry, just the day before. I had told them a couple of days before that they were deluded, and I didn't want to be here for the funeral atmosphere once they realized the truth.
It was so hard not to gloat. I managed to keep quiet all day. They were all, literally, crying. No one spoke to me all day.
The following day they claimed that my confidence had to have come from the fact that I knew Bush would "steal another one". They weren't joking.
Ah, I was laughing so hard and even jumped up and down a few times, each and everytime I was out of earshot.
The world is good. There is no sweeter place to be, than in the belly of the liberal beast (California) when Republicans win.
I know. But what is a girl to do living in Massachusetts. Recently divorced and taking care of a young 7 year-old son. Believe me, I'd like nothing more than to move to Texas where my Liberal brother just moved to because of better income and an incredible mansion. Pray and thing of me. Thanks so much!
It was so sweet. I started to mention it to the office moonbat and he just said Shut up,Ich, just shut up. He was moping for a long time. Hate to say it though, just today he called Mr. Bush an idiot for the Merkel Massage, and I had to agree that was pretty stupid.
