This absolutely disgust me - especially since my FORMER best friend just told me this week that since I’m not in love with the Chosen One that it has made her realize that I hate black people....I was floored....then I just emailed her back and told her to never, ever contact me again (after a 33-year friendship) either by email or phone as I have absolutely nothing to say to her.....I am furious!!! To think that this woman as been a republican/conservative in the 33 years I’ve known her and now because she’s drank the KoolAid then I’m a racist because I can’t stand this POS....

Sounds like someone could use some time in a re-education camp! :)

I understand your anger. Did the same thing.

Met in kindergarten. All through school best friends. After we parted to seek fortunes we stayed in touch, crisscrossing the nation at least twice a year for long weekends etc. He and his wife and me and my wife bought a house on an island to share (sold a while ago). Nearly 50 years of friendship.

Then one time in Vegas, maybe late 2002, we were watching the Bellagio fountains. They played all the good ones in a row.. Singing in the Rain, Luck Be A Lady, Con Te Partirò, Viva Las Vegas, then the Natl. Anthem. Very cool.

My pal makes a disparaging remark re the Anthem. Then I come to learn he is of the opinion 9/11 was a function of chickens returning to roosts. He’s f-ing dead to me.
