Maryland you say? He is a racist!!!!! I know it. I am accused of being one because I do not support Obama, he must be one because he did not vote for Michael Steele when he ran for Govenor. He voted for the White Guy! RACIST!
For the love of Mike, whats with these people that meet strangers and in 5 minutes get to talking politics???
Never in my life have I ever given a damn about politics meeting someone new or even among my good friends.
Usually one meets a stranger and the talk is what their name is and where they come from, state or city. Depending on the place one meets then conversation is about the place itself, grocery store prices or if in town the sights to see or perhaps find friends or family in common.
The world is indeed a small place, why take the chance of arguing politics with a stranger for no darn reason when the next day you may find yourself facing that same stranger on a job interview, a new boss, or as a new family member at family reunion.
Civility must be maintained, unless you want to meet your sons betrothed and parents and find you had insulted them in the past., or they had jacked you up.
GET REAL, close friends and coworkers can SOMETIMES talk politics and religion, but there is the in your face strangers that are much like the street Evangelists that we tend to ignore, were they to get in our face we would have them arrested.
Worse scenario the person you jacked up is the head at the loan department at your local bank, your child's teacher, or someone in the medical office of your doctor, records do get lost you know.
Manners and deportment go a long way, running about starting arguments with strangers just comes back you in one way or the other.
Is it any wonder the LIBS if they do this cannot find a job, get welfare with out a long wait, or a doctors appointment easily ? Say need work done on your car and you just insulted or demeaned the wife of the owner of the garage, expect a double bill for repairs.
