So here it is. The Wingnuts believe that Benghazi was just like 9-11

6. We all have to stop worrying about wingnuts and what they think.

We will not change their minds---what little there is. We often spend way too much time debating them, and we exhaust ourselves. Exhausted and nothing gained.

I know so many people who are moderates, and even more who wouldn't know liberal from conservative because they have no interest in it. But these people do get those emails, and they do see this shit on FB, and if we are silent, they will believe this tripe. But when we engage in a long, drawn-out argument that gets nastier on both sides, they could see us as just as unreasonable. I realize that some people entertain themselves with these debates, but if it is happening in a public location, we should be aware that all those other people are also watching.

You made a good point with Kerry and the advise that he shouldn't even pay attention to the Swift Boating, since the charges were so ridiculous. We can't look weak and we can't let them throw this out as truth, because too many people seem willing to believe it. (I am still in shock over that one.)
