I’m surrounded by liberals, so I tend to just smile and say “Well, we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.” When they boast about all the miracles Obama’s going to perform, I smile again and say “I hope you’re right. We’ll just have to wait and see.” (Meanwhile, I’m saving money, paying down debt, and stockpiling rice and beans, because I think we’re heading for harder times yet.)
Or, you could ask "Didn't he say he was going to do that four years ago?".
Honestly, if any of my relatives even WHISPER the name of zer0 in a laudatory manner, I will leave POST HASTE! I don't give a damn if it's family, ignorance is ignorance no matter to WHOM it's attributed.
My Dad remarried after my parents divorce. His new wife was a flaming leftist and co-opted his whole being. I lost my dad.
Fortunately she died this year in February so she couldn’t vote for her King Obama one more time and see him win.
I have to ask everyone here:
—Have you ever had friends/relatives who are very intelligent people who are leftists and then ask yourself in bewilderment: “How is it possible for people who are so intelligent not to see the folly in their value system???”
I’ve had to ponder this question many times and the only thing I can come up with is that INTELLIGENT people can also be NAIVE. That’s the only explanation I can think of. Does anyone else have an answer?
One friend is an alcoholic more or less, so even though he’s a brilliant software engineer, he sits in front of cable TV at night, probably watching Piss Matthews on MSNBC and in a state of stupor, the brainwashing has crept it.
I welcome anyone else’s point of view on this, because I’m totally confused how can intelligent people be so wrong...
