The last I heard was that George Herbert Walker and Barbara Bush were married when George Walker Bush was born. Doesn't that make him legitimate?

Any suggestions as far as how to reply to one of these loons when they make these kinds of comments?

I pull out a little notebook and ask, "How do you spell your name again? I want to make sure the Squad grabs the right person for reeducation."

No, I have no mercy. Anyone dumb enough to buy that line deserves what they get.

I've said, "Have you ever considered the possibility that there really are ... just... more of us than you right now?" Sometimes they look a little abashed and mumble something like, "Geez, I hope not," but it's apparent that such a simple answer shames them with its obvious validity.

Just tell them the truth:

"Republicans have never needed to steal an election. Our success of late has been due to preventing Democrats from stealing elections. We've finally got their number!"

Yes, look them in the eye and with compassion in your voice, explain they are suffering from "Bush Derangement Syndrome", let the know help is available.

If you want to be mean and they are into new age nonsense, just tell them Bush is the Karma for 8 years of Bill Clinton we suffered though and if you REALLY want to screw the Cosmo up, vote for Hillary in 2008 and the crap will really hit the fan.

I don't know. With the recent relevations that Lincoln was wired with a secret electronic transmitter/receiver during his debates with Stephan Douglas and that Ike was a major stockholder in Mercedes-Benz during WW II, the web seems to be pretty wide and deep.

I can empathize. My folks are liberals and I am the black sheep of the family. My older sister has come around to the conservative point of view, but isn't registered to vote, so I don't consider her a Republican.

Last Christmas, .45MAN and my father got into a shouting match over, as my father put it, "Your war-mongering president." Since then, my mother has made us promise not to discuss politics when we are together.

My nephew, a law student, *was* very conservative. My sister tells me he voted for sKerry. I don't understand it. He's not coming home for Thanksgiving, but at Christmas I'll have to pull him aside and ask him "What gives?"

Happy Thanksgiving and *good luck!*

Cognitive dissonance

Cognitive dissonance was first investigated by Leon Festinger and associates, arising out of a participant observation study of a cult which believed that the earth was going to be destroyed by a flood, and what happened to its members — particularly the really committed ones who had given up their homes and jobs to work for the cult — when the flood did not happen. While fringe members were more inclined to recognise that they had made fools of themselves and to "put it down to experience", committed members were more likely to re-interpret the evidence to show that they were right all along (the earth was not destroyed because of the faithfulness of the cult members).

We too have our Liberal Loons in the family...just yesterday I heard our Matriarch is expecting a "Hillary!-Obama" ticket in 2008...can you believe that? Automatic LOOSERMAN !!

At work, I have three loons I like to tweak...one guy, just after the election, said that he hoped he wasn't going to be put on "The List" for extermination...I told him that if he was nice to me, I would make sure he was just put in a camp for re-education...trouble is, he actually was SERIOUS about being exterminated!! I haven't gotten "The" memo yet about that have any of you???

Regarding legitimacy, I think a good old street slam would do, as in "At least our Presidents know who their fathers are."

Top Ten Fun Things to Say to Liberals Now the Election Is Over:

10. Your papers, please.

9. If you idiots ever shut up, I'd have nothing to laugh at!

8. Who cares if Old Europe would’ve voted for Kerry? We protect old Europe. The children don’t tell the grownups when they want to go to bed.

7. Thank God for the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.

6. Are you going to Bible study tonight? You know, it’s mandatory now.

5. How are you going to “secede from the Union?” You have no guns!

4. I hear Canada is beautiful in the winter.

3. I got your mandate right here.

2. What do you mean, you’re leaving the country? The new concentration camp for liberals is in North Dakota.

1. Let’s bomb Paris!
