It's funny, I'm out in public a lot, including crowded spaces like aiports, and yet the only time I've heard people from opposing sides argue over politics has been when people come to our door as part of a campaign.

These stories sound like nothing but liberals living out their fantasies of blasting their opposition in arguments. The biggest giveaway might be all the people nodding in agreement and snickering.

Actually, I think some of them are dreams they have and are just making them sound like it really happen. The DUmmies aren't smart enough to have an imagination as good as some of the stories are.

Off topic, but I noticed you had one more h5 than bs, so I had to fix that.  :-)

Thanks! I was feeling a little off tilt there  :-)

Subway has pizza?

I read awhile back they were introducing a personal size deep dish pizza to their menu.
This too shall pass.

I didn't hear that. I wonder if it will be a healthy?

That was a pretty good bouncy.  Reminiscent of the dialog from the hit TV series The West Wing.

So, I had to stop at the grocery store tonight, here's my bouncy about it.

It's freaking hot, I put the quarter in the thingy on the cart and the cart pulls right out, no glitches.

I walk in, I see someone I know, I say hi, they say hi, I walk about 20 feet and see someone else I know, I say how ya doing? they say fine, how you doing? I say good.

I head into the controversial produce section, I pick up some tomatoes, no convo from me, didn't hear anyone having a convo.

I head over to paper products, avoided a collision, I say excuse me, she says excuse me, we're on our way.

I go to the register, smile and say hi, cashier says hi, at this point it gets controversial, we discuss the weather.

He gives me my receipt, I say thank you, he says have a nice day, I say you too.

I go into the liquor store, long line, not 1 conversation going on, the guy tells me to come over to his register, and oh boy! controversy ahead, I saw an ex-boyfriend, hadn't seem that fool in almost 2 decades, I think UGH! walk past the fool didn't even look, then head out to the car and come home.

There nothing about converting people and getting big round of applause as you were walking out.

So we have a husband and a wife who are conservative. The husband has a job where he has received a recent promotion which obviously means more pay, but the wife is looking for a job in another state. Why would the husband give up a job with a guaranteed salary to move with his wife to another state were she to get a teaching job? Why would the wife not at least take the $18,000 job (she could still look for a better paying job, maybe at a private school) because that would help pay the bills better than $0?

If they were that pressed for money, why would she (selfishly) use that family's much needed income to travel to other states looking for work especially when she was already offered another one? How can they afford fast food when they have so little money? Conservatives would have made a peanut butter sandwich at home (which takes less time to make than standing in the line at Subway), grabbed an apple or a banana, maybe some crackers & bottled water or juice which would be a cheaper meal.

Since no other teachers have been fired because of Walker's policies (he would have been forced to fire them if the union got their way because the government couldn't afford to keep them all) why was she let go? Was she incompetent?

Why, especially if they are conservative, would they bother answering the 20 something woman instead of telling her that it's none of her business and when she gets older she might understand more about how the world works?

Why, when the topic of the discussion was looking for a job, a this person just throw in "what do you think about Rubio"? And if by some weird reason the conservative family decide to continue the conversation with the nosy young woman, why wouldn't the conservative explain that many people are being vetted and Romney hasn't yet picked a running mate?

Why would the 40 year old, should he bother continuing a conversation with an idiot, not explain how the private sector creates jobs, how the private sector benefits regular people (including teachers) since most 401k's invest in these companies?

Why didn't he point out that Bain Capital saved plenty of companies which meant saving jobs and that even plenty of democrats agree with that?

Why wouldn't they bother to ask the 20 year old how she thinks raising taxes creates jobs and explain to her how the opposite is true?

Or explain that Romney's main plan for reducing government employees is through attrition and not just firing whole swaths of people?

Why would the husband, out of the blue bring up "free stuff" and if he did why would he not counter her stupidity with real examples?

And why wouldn't he explain how conservatives market based solutions, like allowing people to buy insurance across state lines bring more competition and, thus, even save government programs like Medicare/caid millions of dollars?

Why wouldn't he explain there are way too many abuses of disability and by weeding out the people that don't need it, the government would save more money and let people who really need it apply and get it without as much delay?

Or why some of those people getting disability cant get job training (even if the government paid for this it would save the taxpayers money in the long run and create more taxpayers since unemployed people on disability USE taxpayer's money without contributing? A carpenter with a back injury and even someone in a wheel chair CAN be trained to do a job. Companies have no problem hiring handicapped people. A paraplegic has full use of his hands and can certainly do desk work. There are plenty of jobs that can be even done from home. Call centers hire people all the time all you have to do is be able to answer the phone and use a computer.

Why would he even bother with such a stupid laundry list of "free" programs that just happen to cover every single democrat talking point and "pet" program?

Why would a conservative, publicly use the "F" word, especially in front of his young son?

Why would he even bother saying anything at all?

Why wouldn't they, as most republicans would, cut the little liberal 20 year old off before she started spewing such stupid shit?

Why wouldn't they just tell her to bug off and MYOB, they had no interest in talking politics with her or anyone else in the middle of the airport?

Why would this DUmmie just HAPPEN onto a conversation that covers every single thing the democrats believe and, naturally, include every response in the exact tone, prejudice, inability to grasp the issue that liberals believe about conservatives and respond in the exact way liberals are convinced everyone should think?

And "coincidentally" show a 40 year old couple who obviously have more life experience and a greater knowledge of how the world works being shut down by the "wisdom" of a 20 year old who has almost no life experience?

Why, as a bonus, would racism be thrown into the mix because cries of racism "color" every excuse they have for conservatives' objection to 0bama's policies whether there's any real proof or not?

Predictably, the conservatives get angry and flustered and the calm at the absolutely stupid and immature responses from the 20 year old.

Why would a couple waiting for an airplane do anything more than make small talk because it would be rude to impose such nonsense on others?

Why didn't airport security jump out from behind the potted plant and tell the foul mouthed conservatives to calm down and stop using such language in a public airport?

Why did the DUmmie forget the "SO" at the beginning of the story?

Or explain how he remembered the conversation word for word?

Why doesn't my airport have a Subway and when did they start selling pizza? And why would they even go on about the boy eating these all week when the normal response would be something like, "Yeah he really loves them!"

Why would they know this person by name and then, at the end, she walks away and makes a comment that makes it seem like this is the first and last time they've ever spoken?

If this is such a "reasonable" and smart liberal why would one conversation end their relationship, especially since they obviously knew her well enough to have already talked about the wife looking for a job?

And why do the DUmmies usually believe this crap?

At a few grocery stores yes, you put the quarter in then when you're done you take your cart back, stick the thingy in it from the cart in front of you and your quarter pops out.
