17. Honestly
If anyone did they kept it to themselves but I like to think that some of them secretely said "WTF was I thinkin?".

Anyway for anybody else who has tried to have a rational discussion with these kooks I'll post some of the most frustrating topics, maybe y'all can add your own:

1. Without question, WMDs in Iraq they went from insisting that they existed, to insisting that they were smuggled to Syria (just to spite GWB apparently) to simply ignoring their earlier insistance on their existance. They moved the goalposts so often they had to install wheels on em.

2. John Kerry's war record. This one especially pissed me off because the official record was so clear. I got the sense that the nutbags so violently resisted the notion that Kerry actually served in harms way because admitting this fact would have forced them to come to grips with GWBs silver spoon fortunate son Vietnam experience, so they simply refused to acknowledge recorded history an insisted that Kerry's VN record was a fraud. Oh yeah and that he was a commie.

3. Palin. This was initially funny but got scary (and gets scarier all the time), I don't think any explanation is needed.

4. Obamas is (fill in the blank). Take your pick: Muslim, Indonesian, Kenyan, Communist, Fascist, Terrorist sympathizer, a member of the weather underground, etc....they never get tired of throwin this shit up against the wall to see what sticks.
