I wanted to share a FACEBOOK private Message I received tonight from an old friend (actually, my first boyfriend) who now lives in Massachussetts. Anyone who is my FACEBOOK friend knows my politics, hence..this..
Hi Hildy, I write to you privately so as not to air our differences in public.
Do you still think much of Herman Caine, [sic] who knows nothing of foreign affairs, and admits it. Is this who should make decisions that will effect the entire world? Do you really not believe that it is the 1% are the ones who the republicans cater to? Do you really believe that they care about "Joe six pack", or just lure him in to believe that he too can have some of that American pie "? I live in a million dollar home and have considerable savings, but still have the heart to care about those less fortunate.I truly believe that the republicans are about keeping the tax cuts for the extremely wealthy and let the poor working schmuck pay all the rest. I find this despicable, and don't mind paying my fair share of tax's, as long as the supper wealthy pay their share. What's your take on this?
Hildy, you say this guy is an old boyfriend? Well than just allow me say that with an argument like he just gave your ex is too stupid to be an idiot.
Close..a chiropractor.
That is so funny..that looks so much like the house I grew up in.
“By the way, the only friends we Jews have these days are in the Republican party. And your comments about Cain? A tad racist, don’t ya think?”
I suggest you take up your complaint with Mr. Panetta.
He was really cute. He’s a Chiropractor. Wait until he finds out it’s not covered in Obamacare. Hope he has some equity in that million dollar house.”
Not covered in Obamacare-well I hope he doesn’t get out of joint because of that.
You dated Wesley Mouch?
Please pass on to your IDIOT friend.
( I live in a million dollar home and have considerable savings, but still have the heart to care about those less fortunate)
Well I live in a $100,000 house, not paid for, have almost zilch in savings but still donate to the food bank at my church, drive miles to attend funerals and stand flag lines for fallen soldiers, shovel snow for nearest 3 nighbors who are more elderly then I am and have medical issues. And volunteer time for various activities for children at my church. If it wasn’t for the liberal/socialist/democrat policies over the past 35 plus years that have destroyed this nations savings, job outlook and ability to prosper maybe we would not need to donate to the food banks as much!
It’s a great example of just how out of touch Massachusetts liberals are. I live outside of Columbus now. That house would max out at $150,000 in a very nice suburb here.
I think its been shown that Obama doesn’t know much of anything about foreign policy either.
Most of the top 1% are probably Democrats. Heck, Warren Buffer, Bill Gates, Peter Lewis and George Soros are all leftists.
Wanna really be shocked? Read the Elena Kagan emails.
“If I shouldn’t vote for Herman because he can’t answer a gotcha vague question like “so what about Libya”, why should I vote for someone who thinks Hawaii is Asia, there are 57 states, and Austrian is a language?”
And, why would someone vote for a man who uses a teleprompter to talk to kindergartners?
You raise the taxes on the rich. And the rich decide they need to charge more money for their products or services.
Any small business that gets its taxes raise will automatically increase what they charge.
Beer out my nose funny!!!
Nicely done, Hildy! Wow - #’s 1 and 2....well said!!!
Like a lot of liberals, especially those in my family, I found your friend’s tone to be extremely condescending-one meant to say, “I’m better than you” but stated in a nice way. I’ve met people like him before, they love to look down on the masses from their elitist towers. I have little if any respect for your friend.
Sorry for the anger in my post. I do in fact have a very hard time with people like your friend regardless of either party they belong to. And yeah, I’ve found them on both sides of the political divide.
You know I’m almost sorry because I doubt he’ll read your post with an open mind. Sounds like he is safely housed where he wants to be.
I really do like your response. It isn’t easy trying to explain to someone on the left how off base their facts are. I may borrow some of your points of clarification!
Oh, I forgot to mention, the property tax on that house in the picture is $8000 a year. Just crazy.
In my hometown of Topeka, Kansas this house would probably, depending on sq footage and location, market at approximately $130k.
Don’t forget Obama dating the year 2011 as 2008. lol There’s nothing like missing your today’s date by 3 years.
