I lurk often over at DU and I've noticed that "I got into it with a Republican today!" is a popular meme over there. It always starts with some McCain supporter out of the blue attacking Obama and the faithful DU'er coming to his rescue.

I think most of these accounts are made up by people fantasizing what they would do in this situation.

Yes, of course, but there's a lot more fantasizing than that.

Primitives also tend to fantasize about their real-life jobs, for example.

The intern primitive is no dentist; dentists don't have time or the inclination to hang around Skins's island.

One can reasonably assume there's some authentic attorneys on Skins's island--maybe three or four--but among the other professions, they don't have the time.

Probably the intern primitive is the person who goes into the office after office hours, to vaccuum the floors and empty the wastebaskets, and to use the office computer for posting on the internet.

Remember the First Rule: DUmmies lie, all the time, DUmmies lie.

Yep.

I know that my mind wouldn't be changed by a 60-second confrontation with a liberal moonbat.

I have several friends and co-workers that are Dems, and who are all voting for Obama. We've had many rational discussions over a beer, or around the watercooler - they have some reasonable points. I just disagree with them.

If my mind (and, others like me) can't be swayed by hours of contemplative back-and-forth discussion, who would possibly think that "getting in my face" for a few seconds would change it? Liberal projection is endlessly fascinating.

At another site (the site that can not be named at DU), they're called bouncyball stories.
