This could be a pretty decent bouncy tale, but DUmbass WiffenPoof is such a poor writer she ends up with a TL/DR mess. Anyway, it's still better than a lot of the silly bouncy tales a lot of the DUmpmonkeys try to spin.
Anyway, it's worth wading through it to get to all the advice she gets from experienced bouncemasters.
See if this isn't just like every doctor's appointment you've ever had:

My Encounter With A Right Wingnut
I arrived for my doctor's appointment a little early. I'm getting to the age where I need to start having a bunch of weird tests and stuff. Let me tell you, getting old isn't for cowards. I was the only one in the waiting room when two middle-aged women enter the room. Once they settled in, one of them said in a really loud voice something to the effect that her disability was taken away because of "Obamacare." She continued to bash the President at a level I had rarely seen. I bit my tongue for as long as I could and finally asked her a very specific question. I asked just how is it the case that Obama took away her disability. This was news to me. I asked in a very polite manner. Before she could answer me, the other woman said in an elevated voice...Oh, you're one of those people. You support Obama. I stated that I was a proud Democrat and that I did indeed support the President. She launched into a tirade about how Obama is a Socialist and that I must be a Socialist myself if I support him. I'm telling you I could not get a word in edgewise...she continued her rant stating that he is ruining the country because of all the social programs and the money he is spending. She said that when Bush was in office, gas was only $1.85...since Obama took over, she is paying $4.50. ....and blah, blah, blah...I told her that it sounded as if she got her education from Fox News. She asked me what's wrong with that? The more she talked the angrier she got. I honestly thought she was going to physically attack me. Then she stated that all the Democrats want is to get everything for free and not work for it. They're a bunch of lazy freeloaders. I told her that her statement simply isn't true. I for one believe that some people need a hand up and not a handout. She continued on as if I hadn't said anything. She then stated again that more people are on food stamps than ever before and that the President is the "food stamp president.". ...and more blah, blah, blah...I asked her this question: If Obama wants everyone on the government dole, then why is it that your friend is having her disability taken away (because of Obama). She couldn't answer me. I added that I believe that we have a social contract to those who are less fortunate than we are. I suppose you would think I'm some sort of Socialist for believing that. She said...no, your not a Socialist, you're and idiot. Ah, I said. Now we are name calling. She said, I'm not name calling. If I were name calling, I would call you a "****ing idiot." Well, I had enough. I realized that there was nothing I could say or do that would make any sort of impact.
To be honest, I was quite upset about the whole incident. ...and blah, blah, blah....I feel a sense of hopelessness concerning our country. I'm sorry. I wish I felt differently.

3. Yes, You Are Right
On Edit: I wanted to go into the whole economy and the fact that 67% of Americans still believe that it was Bush's fault. I wanted to explain how it was while Bush was in office where there was a lack of regulations on financial institutions that ultimately caused the economic situation we were in... She just wouldn't let me talk at all. If someone were to referee the debate, they would have easily said that I lost. Her tactic of screaming and not letting anyone respond worked very well.

8. I've come to the conclusion that it's hopeless to argue
with these people. Not much you can do but shake your head sadly and say something like, "You poor thing. This is just how my poor old Aunt Mildred was, at first. Turned out it was Mad Cow disease. She was gone in only a few months after she was diagnosed, raving about the President's birth certificate. It was sad. Hope it goes easier for you, dear." Then sigh deeply and turn away.

12. I usually just go crazy myself
I'm totally not kidding here (even though I do think it is kind of funny. It's okay to laugh)
Iraq really messed with my head. I'll easily change any political conversation into a war conversation. Do yourself a favor. Don't talk "pro war" anything with me. I'll start shaking, crying, and blabbering all sorts of nonsense. It does a great job shutting people up!
I kind of hope that hearing the raw parts of war and seeing how it messes up "our heros" heads kind of shocks at least some level of sense into these people.

14. "Are you sure you have the right doctor's office?"
"This is the Family Practice office. The psychiatrist's office is three doors down." You can't reason with delusional people, and this woman is clearly delusional.
Usually, when someone behaves that way toward me, I always say, "I'll bet you're a Christian, right?" They ALWAYS proudly reply that, yes, they are a Christian. I just reply, "Did you learn that in church? I missed the part in the Bible where Jesus told his followers to run around calling people '****ing idiots'. I'm sure he would be so proud of you." Shuts 'em up every time.

if I have to I may repeat it one or two times but that's all they get.
The same thing I say to a strangers kid misbehaving in a public place

The Victor primitive and bobbolink probably would get along swimmingly, if Bobbo wasn't just a pile of bones in the back of a rusty Buick.

It continues to amaze me how I miss out on encounters such as this. Several years ago following my wife's motorscooter accident, for a period of several months we visited various specialist's offices about twice a week.
Now, we are to the point where we have normal, regularly scheduled visits.
In all of our combined waiting room time (include dermatologist and dentist), I've NEVER had or overheard one single solitary political discussion in one of those waiting rooms.
I think DUmmies make stuff up, each one trying to outdo the others.

Wuss. If that's the best defense you have against someone who is as you say "pro war"...then I'll REALLY make you cry when I simply point at you...laugh...and tell you to put your big girl panties on.

Yes, it is true. I've read the scrawlings of the primitives for almost a decade now, as well as listened to the words of prominent Dems. If there's one message that rings loud and clear from all of them, it's that they want to take from the productive so they can sit back, do nothing, and live like kings.

when Bush was in office, gas was only $1.85...since Obama took over, she is paying $4.50
Gas is over $4 a gallon in NY.

Oh how I long for the day to read a bouncy that starts off with:
So, I was at the doctors office, butted into a private conversation and got punched in the face.
-
I really liked the "Let me tell you, getting old isn't for cowards." part. I've never ever heard that quote before and it lent a wizened tone to the whole post.

I've been kicking around this ol' world for almost half a century. In that time, not one person has called me a "****ing idiot", at least not to my face. That may be because I'm not a ****ing idiot, or it may be because I have always been surrounded by kind and goodhearted people.
In contrast, DUmmy GoCubsGo is called a "****ing idiot" so often that he has a preplanned, rehearsed retort, which he "usually" uses and which "shuts 'em up every time."
How big of a ****ing idiot does the DUmmy have to be, to draw such frequent attention from total strangers?

Now remember, DUmmies lie; all the time, DUmmies lie.
It's a law better proven than even the law of gravity, that primitives lie.
I suspect the primitive's never been called a ****ing idiot in his life, and so never's had to use his "retort."
I rather suspect most people just look at him as the strangest, stupidest phenomenon they've ever seen in their lives, rendering them speechless.

Well, we know the primitives act differently when they are being observed from over here at the Cave.
What is your theory on how they may or may not act if they were being observed in public? Do you think they'd be even more bombastic, or slink off quietly and sniffle in a dark corner somewhere?

I think that the second potion is the most prevalent, but only at a 2:1 ratio.

Well Frank I have had only one encounter with a dummy type person over the years. Back right around the 2004 election. It was in the theater's parking garage elevator. I wasn't speechless as in mute, saying nothing. I was speechless because I was silently laughing my ass off. Everytime it opened it's mouth to say something else, the harder I silently laughed. Too bad I was parked on the 4th floor and had to get off the elevator. I bet I would have burst out laughing sooner or later.
In hind sight, I should have asked what it's DU name was instead of telling it I voted for Bush as I got off the elevator.

Past experience has shown that before the primitives were aware of the Best/Worst of DU at our old home, they were much more uninhibited.
And they've seemed to become even more uptight with the newer DUmpster here.
I doubt we'll ever again see a primitive on Skins's island admit his wife makes him use the bathroom in the basement because she doesn't like him stinking up the good bathrooms on the first and second floors, or another primitive confess that when he sits on the commode, he expels stuff as large as watermelons.
Ah, good times, good times.
Alas, we'll never see such again.

Me neither, but my Doctor on the other hand can't stand the big O and isn't shy about saying so...... :lmao:

So, I had an appointment at my doctor's office. As usual, no one talked in a loud voice. Most people didn't talk at all. There were just the usual smiles when one happened to look up at the same time as another person.
They had the usual wrinkled copies of People and some kind of health magazine. Kim Kardashian is, evidently, getting a divorce (of course this has been reported dozens of times so who knows). For whatever reason, Robert Pattison felt the need to hide from Kristen Stewart at Reese Witherspoon's. LeAnn Rimes stopped gallivanting around the world long enough to be treated for anxiety and Rachel Bilson is still with Hayden Christensen.
Oh, and I don't drink enough water!
Next think I know, my doctor's assistant burst out of the door (from where I was sitting it was kinda hidden behind a potted palm tree) and called my name.
I was weighed (I hate the scales at the doctor's office because they always make me a few pounds heavier), talked to my doctor (not one word about health care or 0bamacare) and left with my prescription in hand. As I walked by the sitting room, it was still quiet, despite new people being there.

Still waiting for the official bouncy rating. I'm pretty sure subject of OP is a bona fide primitive.

I've had 2, both while a cashier at Wallyworld back in 2008.
The first one was lamenting on how wonderful Carter was as a president. I replied he MAY be a nice person, but he was a LOUSY president. His policies forced our family farm to declare bankruptcy back in 1978, and I was paying 17.9% interest on the mortgage to my house in 1979.
The second one commented he was voting for Zero, because he wasn't about to vote for "George and Gracie".
I replied I preferred them over "Buffalo Joe and Howdy Doody".

No shit Cindie!!!! My doc's scale always puts me about 10 pounds over what my weight actually is. Me and the doc play the usual weight game. He says I need to lose weight, I say that as long as my pants fit and I don't have to buy new ones, I'm good. :-)
He writes the script, I leave. I never had a doc office bouncy.
I guess I just ain't living right or something. :bawl:

See?
You sensed exactly the same thing I did, although yours was subconscious and mine was conscious.
I've never heard Barack Milhous, only "read" his body language.
Six, not four, years ago, I insisted there's nothing in him, he's pretty stupid, and probably a marionette manipulated by either certain individuals (who, I have no idea) or the cultural tsunami of liberal white guilt.
You see the same thing I did.
The guy's an idiot, a puppet.

I have been to the doctor probably more times since 1995 than most everyone on CC combined. I have never had a confrontation regarding politics or overheard one. I have never been at Wal-Mart (needing to make an excuse as to why I shopped there) and had/heard a political confrontation either.

I've had political discussions with my rheumatologist (that I have had since 1995) and my GP in CA. Neither voted for Obama. I suspect my old retina doctor in CA was a lib, only because he had Mother Jones magazines in his waiting room. Although he had two other partners so he may not have been the moonbat who ordered the magazine subscription. He knew what he was doing so I didn't care what his politics were.
-
I think DUmmies make stuff up, each one trying to outdo the others.
There shouldn't be any doubt about it. They routinely describe the sort of encounters people virtually never have in public, the kind you see on television and in movies, the obviously scripted kind. The only thing I've seen that even comes close occurred in '08 when someone campaigning for Obama came to our door. My mother went outside briefly to talk with the woman. The exchange ended with "Well, I hope McCain doesn't die in office!"

Much like Billy Jeff Klintoon, There's no "there" there.

My impression is that Whiffenpoof is a mole, and wanted to type out and post certain things, to see if he/she could get away with it. Such as:
Obama is a socialist, and you must be a socialist too...all the Democrats want is to get everything for free and not work for it. They're a bunch of lazy freeloaders. ... She then stated again that more people are on food stamps than ever before and that the President is the "food stamp president."
I think the fictitious waiting room ladies had some good points.

While I certainly haven't been to the docs as much as you (damn you're tough), I've spent plenty of time in the lobby of psych docs where most of the crazy people are liberals and still no confrontations. Usually plenty of greenery, mostly ficus trees. I suppose it's because it's the one place where the cops actually need bushes to jump out from behind. They all seem to have fish tanks too...so does my dentist's office...wonder if there's a connection.

I wonder what his reply would have been to a person who said they were an agnostic?
"Well, did no one in particular teach you to talk like that?"
"uh, yeah ... sure ... you idiot."

So, I ran a few errands today, waited on some lines, looked around as did others who were online, not 1 conversation going on.
