Who else wants to slap their co-workers that voted for McCain?

[devilgrrl]

:mad::eyes::puke:

BTW, when asked why they voted for him - none could come up with a coherent reason. What else is new. :grr:

1. I work in a highly political environment...

Today is the day when we all cut through the crap and just agree that the voters usually get what they want. I have too many friends on the other side to ever let this get personal.

[Xenotime]

2. I don't understand how you could keep friends on the other side.

I wouldn't classify people on the other side as "friends"

[Tunkamerica]

3. that's weird

I don't check political affiliations when i talk to people

[PassingFair]

4. Me either.

I am "friendly" with those on the other side.

But they are not my friends.

The 'pukes I know, to a man, would never
do anything for anybody but themselves or
their families -- unless there was money,
stature or a reward in the afterlife
involved.

Really.

[depakid]

9. At this point, it's clearly a sign of poor character

I do my best to keep people like that out of my life.

[sam sarrha]

17. strange.. that is how they treat me.. ReThug Cult members are brain washed they dont know why they

predjusted..is why i shy away from them, they are mentally deficient in perception and unpredictable/ frequently irrational.. but i still try to help them whenever i can if it can be done without them realizing it.

7. They're just nice people.

Some times you've just got to live a normal life and put politics in perspective.

19. They are Not Your Friends

That is like saying members of the SS are friends of the Jews. Friends have to have things in common. If they are McCain supporters and you are an Obama supporter your core values are at odds, how can you be friends?

FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS VOTE REPUBLICAN

5. Happy to Vent Here

I'm happy to vent my frustrations here, as I chose that "high road" thing for several hours today ...

I'm nearing 40 and back in school studying for a recession-proof occupation (nursing). My classmate and study partner is a 19-year old republican with no claim to her views outside of being the child of republicans. This I can look beyond. I have spent the entire semester listening to her talk about how much she adores Sarah Palin. This too I can look beyond. I have made no secret that I support Obama and have donated and volunteered to his campaign. I have resisted being argumentative, and instead tried to be a calm Obama supporter as an example for a girl who paints "McCain/Palin" on her truck over the weekend, then scrubs it clean on Monday because she's afraid an Obama supporter will slash her tires in the "black parts" of the county our school is supposedly located in. I thought maybe showing her that we're not the "B Girls" would be enough to help her calm down and take that 4.0 brain of hers to new places. I've been wrong, but this to I can look beyond.

Today she showed up in class with her "NOBAMA" shirt. Today. TODAY.

And I chose to swallow my voice out of respect for her (sorry) upbringing. She asked if I would consider staying late after class to help her with our practical exam preparation. I wanted to say, "Only if you'll consider taking off that shirt and shoving it up your tailpipe." But again, I swallowed my voice and told her I had plans to vote this afternoon.

Then I took my 17 year old daughter to the polls and together we made our voices known.

And TOMORROW I will wear my Obama Superhero shirt ... all day long ... and she won't be able to say a word because he'll be President Obama, and respect will be due as per her upbringing.

w00t!

20. You Are Too Gentle

Wimping out and being nice to assholes is why Democrats have had to deal with this shit for eight years. You do not owe her any respect, she has not earned it. We have got to stop being afraid of offending someone.

[funkybug]

29. I know ... rookie mistake

I always stood my ground, but I think I allowed her TOO much latitude.

But then again, she'll take her little lumps tonight, and tomorrow I'll rub my joy in her face ... gently as always.

[Idealism]

6. i feel the same way :(

although with me it was a few fellow students, a group of females who have no clear reason why they are voting for McCain. Most say they don't "trust" or "like" Obama. One went so far as to tell me his tax plan REALLY raises taxes on people making over 42k a year, and what he has been reiterating is just a fantasy whispered into his ear by Stalin (or maybe it was Lenin's) ghost.

These people are fucking insane and it gets me so frustrated sometimes >.>

[sam sarrha]

8. i work with guys from SC right out of Deliverance.. their mama's drank way too much moonshine before

they were born... they just give you the Stink Eye and you start park'n your car 6 or 8 blocks from work, a different place every day, walk around and come in from a different direction. they put paint reducer in my Alcohol sprayer i use to clean plastic parts with.. very expensive Aerospace parts... one part is $500 dollars, and could stop the line for days..

[lifesbeautifulmagic]

10. I don't beleive in the repub way of thinking on anything,

but I do believe that McCain is an honorable man, but what I don't get is how anyone, and I mean anyone, could vote for Palin. It is insulting that she is even on the ticket.

[apimpnamedslickback]

11. Eh fuck 'em

I feel like slapping them now, but i actually will if obama loses.

[WVRICK13]

23. WHAT?

Are you FUCKING delusional? McCain is anything but honorable. Just watching the debates would have clued you in to that fact. You need to be better informed.

[AzDar]

12. You kidding? I'm still plotting revenge against those IDIOTS who brought us Bush...

:rofl:

[BoneDaddy]

13. I work in education and a small percentage still vote R

I just don't get it.

[LisaLynne]

14. There are no actual coherent reasons for voting for McCain.

There really aren't. I mean, maybe there is one, but then there are a million and two reasons not to, so ...

[Dont_Bogart_the_Pretzel]

15. I got laid off 14 month ago and I am sure

10 of them bible.thumping.gwb.supporters voted for Palin, em I mean McCain.

[foxfeet]

16. I'm retired and have no co-workers.

Can I come over and help you slap yours?

[WVRICK13]

18. Not Me

All of my co-workers are Obama supporters. They know their jobs will end with McCain since we are a social service agency.

[KamaAina]

21. I would, but I don't have any

that I know of. :-)

[codjh9]

22. Well, I'm not working right now, but I'd like to slap some RELATIVES, or at least talk some sense

into them, but like the bumper sticker says, MINDS ARE LIKE PARACHUTES - THEY ONLY FUNCTION WHEN OPEN.

[youthere]

24. I know some people who HATE McCain but voted for him anyway.

They don't like any of his policies, think he'd be a TERRIBLE president, and they genuinely like Obama. When I asked them "Then WHY?" they just look at me blankly and say "Because we're Christians!" :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

[codjh9]

27. My GOD - no pun intended - those are some of the craziest people I've heard of YET!

[Kip Humphrey]

25. I was thinking to take tomorrow off so I wouldn't have to deal with co-worker grief but then

it's likely they will take a month or more to get over it. So, I'm going in and will enjoy it completely!!!

[lib2DaBone]

26. People that are still plugged into the Matrix...non-aware..still alseep

[madokie]

28. As I was coming out a guy I know was going in to cancel my vote

of all the people I know who watch fox noise or listen to rush limballs, they all vote re:puke:
