Zing! MSNBC’s top 10 comebacks to use against the family conservative
msnbc ^ | november 21, 2012 | msnbc staff

Posted on 11/22/2012 5:46:41 AM PST by lowbridge

Every family’s got one, at least. That hardcore conservative who makes every Thanksgiving get-together a nightmare by sounding off, unprompted, on how liberals are ruining this country with their taxing and their spending and their gay-marrying, and how back in my day blah blah blah.

Usually you just keep your head down and stare into your turkey and try not to make eye contact with anyone. Then the next morning in the shower you remember what you should have said in response.

But this year’s going to be different. Why? Because here at MSNBC, we’ve anticipated crazy Uncle Gary’s top talking points, and provided you with the concise, factual, snappy rebuttals you need to finally shut him up once and for all.

So without further ado, we present: MSNBC’s Top 10 Comebacks For Use Against The Family Conservative

My thought exactly. Supposedly MSNBC is the balance to FOX, but I honestly can’t imagine the FOX doing something like this. By signing it “MSNBC staff” they’re not even pretending to have a wall between news and opinion. It’s like they’re totally breaking character.

I probably shouldn’t be, but I am slightly stunned by this. Are they pushing a new limit here or have they been this “out” in the past?

I am going to turkey day dinner at my brother’s. He has a whack job left-wing nut wife.

Yes, she is the hostess.

I find it astonishing that MSNBC is portraying conservatives as “crazy.”

Indeed, projecting is what they always do, and arguing with themselves, which is even worse and more laughable.
They accomplish it by contriving hypothetical questions no thinking Conservative would ever try to argue about, then,
voila! Look at all these great answers we have to your “questions!”

-Solyandra and other Stimulus frauds handed out to Dem funding bundlers
-First ever downgrade of US debt -and another downgrade next year
-Lowest labor participation rate since Carter

When He Says: “Obama thinks its morally ok to torture and murder a healthy baby in the womb up to the ninth month.”

You Say: “That’s true... Now that I think about it, I might like everything else about Obama, but since he believes that, he is disqualified to be the leader of our country. What kind of man believes it’s fine to do that?... Hitler maybe, but not my President”

Ok course, the people posting on MSNBC won’t say that because they’re morally and spiritually bankrupt. They’re Obama worship blinds them to the truth.

The assumption is there's only one per family when virtually half the country voted for one candidate and the other half voted for a Communist.

It's more likely there's only one who takes the bait and responds to whatever drivel is spouted by some no-class Liberal panty-waist who just can't help him or herself from bringing politics up at the gathering.

I relish being that Conservative.

I plan on printing out and handing out EBT and SNAP application forms to all my liberal dunder head foolish thanksgiving day attendees.

Because they are too dumb and lazy to even get their own free food.

We will have our fights and one SIL will get so upset over all of us arguing she will cry. But it will be hard core conservative versus social conservative versus libertarian versus religious conservative versus national security hawk. It will be very serious and all well informed. There will be a few liberals there but they dare not speak.

Lighten up.

You don't know me well enough to give advice. In fact, you don't know me at all, so why would you want to be a jerk? "Happy" "Thanksgiving".

LOL. Leftists need prepared talking points just to have dinner with their families. Can’t ANY of them think for themselves?

Heh, heh. Good point.

As the family Conservative, we only need one reply on our list, "Ah. So YOU'RE the one who watches MSNBC."

You said they imagine themselves to be “master debaters”. Perhaps enough said would be to remind them of the inappropriateness of master debating in public at a family gathering.

Theses are all too difficult for the average, leftist, usefull idiot to understand, memorize and articulate through a mouthfull of mooched turkey.

All they will likely do is drop back to the old standby and call you a “racist”.

I think I made it to #3 before I had to quit reading. Both liberals and conservatives have to live with the obama win. I think conservatives will have the last laugh. Small comfort, I know.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.
