Nice story, but it’s like reading a DUmmie thread about how they told their right-wing relatives off on the holidays. They always, on the spur of the moment, have the most well thought out and perfectly delivered speeches, and assure us that it all happened exactly as they describe, leaving all the right wingers dumbfounded and too upset to respond.
They only heard four words: “I get free sh!t??”
I was thinking the same thing. Most lefties I know if you have any effect on them at all takes years.
Now that healthcare is gonna tart to kick in - the sheeple are gonna start to find out the true cost from their employers ...
“Whaddya mean you have to fire me to get under 50 employee?”
“Whaddaya mean you have to cut me down to 28 hours per week?”
“Whaddaya mean you can’t offer insurance to me anymore?”
And on, and on, and on ...
This one has been going around for a couple of years but it is still relevant, maybe more so.
Excellent!
Parable.
Right. Usually, it’s only after they have some sort of personal epiphany, and then they might come back and tell you that they’ve realized you aren’t so crazy after all. I think the true believers can never really be convinced by logic, they need some emotional event in their own lives to short circuit their thinking.
That’s what I thought too. Those leftists would merely start talking about how the man’s premise is nothing like Obamacare, blah blah blah. I’ve read it, seen it, and heard it. I haven’t had the experience, because all my friends and family are conservative and despise Obama and the left, so I don’t get the chance (I wouldn’t have the nerve to interrupt a conversation between leftists I don’t know, they’re too crazy these days and you don’t know how they’ll react).
“Sir, these kids don’t understand Liberty.”
Very true!
I don’t believe they even have epiphanies very often-look at how the DUmpmonkeys manage to rationalise everything, even the higher withdrawals from their paychecks recently. They got angry, but blamed everyone but the ones with whom the blame actually lies.
Good one!
Even the most emotional event doesn’t change some of them-the murder of a child.
You don’t need a well-thought-out speech; I’ve shut people up by just asking how they like paying for all the foreign babies in our neighborhood when they can’t afford their own (according to them), or how they like being unable to get a variety of jobs because they can’t speak Spanish (we’re inundated with illegals, and legitimate jobs are now geared towards them), or (if they are “social liberals”) what they think of how our newcomers treat women, homosexuals, etc.?
The look of dismay, then resentment, is priceless; because you can ask in such a way that they think you’re on THEIR side, there doesn’t even have to be a confrontation...
Bump.....
Obama supporters don’t get paychecks
