My Fellow Co-worker and I got into it today about Fox News.
He watched it all day long and I finally could not stand it anymore and said something. Damn I felt good after that. But God-damn he sits there and sucks that shit in like it was gospel and does not research anything else about the shit they are spouting.

He also "LOVES" Chimpy and his daughters. I thought he was going to have an orgasm during the inauguration when they showed Jenna or Barbara.

1. ask him how is the price of gas is going?
mebbe ask what he thinks of sendng his own blood to the sands of arabia?

You know start making holes where it matters, but you will have a better chance to use gasoline as an entry... and yes expect the BUT CLINTON

5. He was already in the military.
Oh they had a report on that gas will go down. And that is what he responds with. He got a big dose of the Kool-Aid and you do not talk bad about his Pres. Bush.

He thinks Bush is the reason he could buy a house. There is no getting through to this idiot.

I usually avoid Politics.

8. Well if his time in the ready resrve is not over
he may find himself over there... or his kids will ... always look on the bright side of life.

Now if yuo cannot have a conversation just avoid it... sooner or later he will realize it, mostly later, and too late... 1929 comes to mind

12. He served his time already.
So he is out of the reserves. Even then he would be on a boat. He was navy. He packed parachutes.

4. I'll never forget election night with Brit Hume


Idiot Bush lost a state and Brit Hume said, and I quote,
"We never really needed that one."

Who exactly was "we?"

Shudder. What I get for watching I suppose

11. I don't have time or the patience to type it.
Edited on Thu Apr-14-05 01:27 AM by texas1928
But I made an under my breath comment about one of there "Fair and Balanced Commercials" and he heard me. Got defensive and I shut him up with facts. Plus our other Co-worker, a fellow Democrat joined in and we tore him a new one. But as he was leaving for the day he said "Bush is still the best president ever." So I said "enjoy your fantasy."
