I'm At A Point Where I Feel Bad For My Repug Friends.....

yes I have Repug friends.

Many of which send me those pass on e-mails that are RW drivel and lies. I used to respond to them providing them data and Snopes reviews to refute - but that didn't stop them. Now I just totally ignore whatever they send me and feel sorry for them.

These are smart - college educated people. A couple of them are CEO's of companies, accountants, businessmen - yet they continue to embarrass themselves by sending this crap around to everyone on their e-mail listing. One would think that they are smart enough to verify what they are sending out before they hit send - but they don't. Instead they pass on this crap and in my mind they make themselves looking totally silly. Really - I'm embarrassed for them and feel bad that they are totally oblivious to the fact the others - like myself - laugh at them and make fun of them because of their blindedness to the facts.

I wonder if somehow we could run some sort of embarrassment campaign and knock some sense into these people. Make them feel uncomfortable that others perceive them as less of a person because they are so biased that they lose all common sense and sense of reality.

They would be mortified if they realized their employees perceive them as less a person. They are sending these things on to their friends like me - and not all of their friends are like minded and as biased as they are.

1. They'll wake up a bit if there's a major landslide in November

Let's do all we can to make that happen

Ohh there will be, only it will be a landslide in our favor. Then we get to watch you whine and cry about how we stole the election, and all the crap you said from 2001 through 2009, and all of a sudden dissent will be patriotic again.

 
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

No what you have are people who feel sorry for you and pity you.

Obama is way ahead of you, global1.  Attackwatch.com has been around for a long time.
Make others perceive us as less than persons?  Do you mean subhumans, you nazi?
Global1 is willing to stoop mighty low to stifle expression that he disagrees with.

What golbal1 isn't saying is that his Republican friends refute his "debunking", send his idiotic responses all over the internet, and millions of people can laugh at him in 2 places. Email and DU.

No, what they have is grandfathered in friends. The ones that seemed normal twenty years ago and were fun and part of the group, but are not anymore. You really can't not invite these people but you don't get their invites out first or put any pressure on them to come to gatherings. When they don't come, everyone talks about how weird they have become.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

If you really are their friends why are you calling them names?

Wait, a liberal actually knows people who would call him/her/it/Pat a friend? They must feel sorry for her/him/it/Pat.

Loathing is closer to the feeling, for me, anyways.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.
