I just returned from a Tom Coburn Town Hall Meeting this morning.
While waiting to get in line a woman carrying a 'Public Option' sign up and down the line stopped, looked me directly in the face and said 'You're A Racist'. She didn't know me from Adam. In addition she and her cohorts let someone cut in line.
WC yes, but perhaps not Churchill; methinks that was WC Fields.
off to Google now to confirm ...
This is their last kamikaze ditch into the side of our battleships (although they know the war is over and they have lost but this is to go out in a blaze of glory).
This tact/approach is emanating RIGHT FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.
This is their talking point. Its probably in an e mail somewhere. We are ALL "Racists" now for opposing social Health Care. LUDICROUS! They had ABC News run with this vomit just today, (Rush Limbaugh is exposing it now), they are putting it in print, getting it out there as talking points, whisper campaigns, seminar callers, and it is showing up in the form of that idiot who said such a thing to you.
That sign better be at the next protest...
Using the leftists’ sacred cow (abortion) against them
drives ‘em absolutely batsht.
d@mn I hate being wrong!!!
Sir Winston Churchill delivered the line. Several sites indicate that the unfortunate recipient was Lady Astor.
You’re right. Old age and “Sometimers” disease has struck.
That same thing happened to me!!!
I was wearing a white conical hat and flowing robes at the time. Were you?
Quick response on your part.
Negative Chief. YOU are correct. It was CHURCHILL, not FIELDS.
that’s why you were chief of the boat ;-p
I knew this would happen. If one does not support our dear leader one MUST be a racist.
Well, you probably are a racist under definition 3.
Ra-cist. A conservative who is winning an argument with a liberal.
You should have looked her straight in the eye and said, “You’re a freeloader.”
What I would have said to her cant be repeated on this forum.
My response would have started with F and ended with U.
By the way, that was Winston speaking to Lady Astor I believe.
In another exchange with Churchill Astor once said to him, “Winston, if you were my husband, I’d poison your tea!” Churchill immediately replied back, “Lady Jane, if you were my wife, I would drink it!”
I like it. The other I always like to use ( cause these folks are usually really stooopit) is “Yeah what racist am I?” And they get this funny look on their face and sputter and stammer. It is great
It is attributed to Churchill to Lady Astor
I would recommend the following reply:
“Madam, please. Litigious slander is so unbecoming to civil discourse. May I have your name and your lawyer’s name and address?”
These people have no idea how thin their bullsh*t is starting to wear with the vast majority of the public.
