8. Wow--that brings back memories.
Edited on Sun Aug-26-07 09:09 PM by bliss_eternal
I got into a similar discussion. This woman on a board I used to visit was a staunch right winger (listened to fox, supported the gop, etc.), but she claimed she supported choice. :eyes: When some other pro-choice women (and I) pointed out the gop's stance on contraception (taken from the gop website no less), she still wouldn't believe that there was a concentrated effort on the gop's part to dismantle women's rights, reproductive choice, etc. She just kept posting to us all,"...it's not true, it's not true--stop with all of your liberal lies." :eyes: I wish I was kidding.

The proof was right there and she refused to even see it for exactly what it was. It was like she refused to read it and process it as it was. :banghead: It was a frustrating encounter but scary, too. It alarmed me to find a human being, and especially a woman would allow a political party to "think" for her.
:scared:
