I was snarky with a repuke today.
Today I was in line to pick up a Rx for my husband today. The woman behind me and I struck up a discussion about the high cost of medicine in this country. I told her that my husband's Rx was $600 for 10 syringes and his co-pay is $200. I said I don't know how people with no insurance can afford it. Her answer to me was, "That's why we have to get Obama out of office. What is he thinking making people who can't afford a roof over their heads buy insurance." There were so many things I wanted to tell her but instead this is how I replied. "I don't know. Maybe he should ask Romney how he did it in Mass."
She stopped talking to me.

7. That's a great response! What amazes me is the stupidity of Republicans. Are they born that way?nt
Poor stupid Sarah.

32. You said it. I know of a Republican couple - people who said the poor need to pull themselves up by
their bootstraps like they did, and that welfare "queens" were bleeding our country dry. (Of course, never mind that they started their business with the money their parents handed them for free).
Anyway, they had this home decorating business which was doing well decorating homes in Palm Beach, FL (a rather wealthy area). They drooled over the mega-rich and their homes and incessantly spoke about what wonderful people these were.
So one fine day, their college-age daughter became a drug addict (she was emotionally f'd up - I don't doubt by them). Over a number of years she was arrested, bailed out, ended up homeless and living with drug addicts, and they paid for her to attend countless, very expensive, chichi drug programs. These were church-goers who went to an evangelical mega-church in Ft. Lauderdale, and they were embarrassed by their daughter's doings.
The money they had stashed away began to dwindle on drug programs for their daughter, trying to get her clean so they could be upstanding citizens once again.
Then the husband developed a chronic illness. The wife had to handle the business by herself, keep an eye on her husband's situation, take care of the daughter's problems, and they had a second, younger daughter who was still in elementary school to keep an eye out for.
Soon, the wife developed an anxiety problem, the funds they had stashed had disappeared, they lost their business, they lost their palatial home, and the church members were providing an occasional casserole to them so they could eat.
They're now living in a trailer in Rhode Island or Mass (I can't recall which), and taking EVERY BIT OF GOVT. HELP THEY CAN.
I told my sis I should write them a little letter and ask them to please stop bleeding my govt. dry by taking funds, and to get out there and pull themselves up by their bootstraps, but she said that would be unduly mean. Actually, I feel mean toward these people. They're selfish a-holes, until their time comes and they experience in their own skin what a bad time is.

43. You think? I now have this concept of right wingers that they have no real concept of good vs. evil
or wrong vs. right, or kindness vs. cruelty, and that they are like a frat club which they feel has the right to do any darn thing they want.
I imagine them feeling that THEY are entitled to receive help, where others who are needy and poor, are not.
:whatever:

10. I am very direct with repukes, directly tell them the truth
It always bothers them to hear the truth spoken so plainly. I don't do it to bother them, I do it to tell them the truth but it always disturbs them.
The other day a puke said they liked Condi Rice so I told him that I didn't like torturers and asked him how the Bush admin ever thought they would get away with war crimes after the U.S. had executed people after WWII for the exact same crimes. The usual "ahh I don't know" was the answer.

I was snarky with a repuke paying customer today.
Fixt, for accuracy.
And so, DUmbshit spartannumbers, how is this different than any other day, again???
But then anybody who can afford to pay for their purchases in this horrible O-conomy has got to be an eeeeeeeeee-vil rich, 1%er Rethuglikkkan; at least in the minds of the stupid DUmbshit behind the fast food counter asking that repuke if she'd like to super-size her order.

Whoa... watch it there bad ass. ::)

Rejoice DUmmies, your communist utopia is at hand, we're all standing in line waiting.

Dearest spartan61,
The health insurance plan in MA which is referred to as Romneycare bares very little resemblance to the plan he setforth. Deval Patrick and the super-super-super-super-majority saw to that. Should Romney had known that would happen? yes. However, that all said.....
Obamacare is nothing like Romneycare. Not even a little bit. Mmmmkay??

My horrible misguided leftist friends who live for soapbox rants about all things liberal, zip their lips when I am in their presence.
Not a word about anything even remotely political. Hmmm, why would that be misfits? I am a minority here in super-liberal MA. Easy target practice you would say?
Yeah no. Utter nonsense meets a quick death in my presence.
I have never had a stranger talk politics with me in any checkout line, ever. I guess I really haven't lived have I? :bawl:

Yep, same here. They can't have their echo chamber and hate facts. Also I think, hope, that when a leftist argues with a realist some of those overhearing the conversation move toward reality and away from communist fantasy.
