Some of the DUMBEST people on the planet are Republicans
Edited on Thu Jan-10-08 03:50 PM by DainBramaged
I'm at work

TODAY

. (Fixed, ok people?) Our receptionist hands me a sheet of paper. She says "did you see this about Obama?" I looked quickly, it's the poison email about the Koran blah blah blah.

I said to her, first, is this what you do with the company computer? Second why do you believe this? Do you know who Keith Elison is? Did you know whose Koran it was?

"It's all true he's a Muslim, he's not a Christan, he went to terror school.


(Me)Where did you get this?


It's true why don't you believe this.

(Me) Because some of the dumbest people I know are Republicans, and they would believe anything negative about a Democrat. By the way, did you know I drink aborted fetuses blood?


With that I walked away. Her Internet access just got turned off.


Stupid people shouldn't breed.

1. Well, thank you for your Nazi philosophy.
I'm sure it will be welcome somewhere.

You don't think I have the right to enforce company policy as Systems administrator? Who are you to side with a Republican?

7. 50's, out of left field, completely surprised me with this crap
I don't hide the fact I'm a Liberal Democrat, but for someone to try and convince me about a poison email about any Dem candidate from the spin machine pisses me off.

Stupid people shouldn't be allowed to get on email lists with "reply to all" as an option, either.

15. Your first sentence said, "I'm at work."
I don't agree with her, either, but how is telling her that you drink aborted fetuses' blood going to enlighten her?

37. Is there ANYWHERE on DU we can go where we don't get this crap?
Why don't people just keep it to themselves? There should be a rule about these kinds of attacks. I used to call out repukes and try to discuss it on DU to try to help others get the courage to call these people on their bullshit. BULLSHIT that is ruining this country and all they would do is attack me for it. Fuck them. I'm going to start using "ignore". Now I realize what it is for.

Dammit, I'm sick of it.:eyes:

20. Of course I don't agree with her
but you're going to shut off her email because she received one spam email about Obama? Really?

You must work in a small office where she doesn't need access to emails. That should be interesting...

23. You don't get it do you
First, it's against our company policy to do any personal business on company time, and second, we aren't small. Third, I shut off her Internet access so she doesn't have the opportunity to spread any more bullshit about OUR DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES in the company.


And fourth, you agree with her decision to show me and probably everyone else she came in contact with today???? What the fuck is wrong with DU? Its OK to spread this poison now???

11. not any longer...
their position has been usurped by young democrats on DU who of recent times have been openly used by Karl rove hissownevilself. They have fallen ofr every character assassination posted lately and spread it gleefully. They have reacted to candidates, theirs and the others in exactly the way most bemeficial to the Repugs cause. So here's to ya kids...you finally made #1 at something!

30. So looking at porn sites at work shouldn't be an issue
for them anymore I guess, though that's not to say that they understand why they shouldn't do it. I was just curious.

32. We'll since you ask
I'd like to think you weren't the sort of person who would turn off one persons internet access because you don't like their politics, but leave another person's on because their apolitical, when both are using company equipment for personal use. Apparently, your not.

35. You just don't get it
Company policy states NO personal use of computers, period. Now, since you seem to be concentrating on how I do my job instead of the circumstances of it, I'm going to ignore you from this point on. I don't believe your real intention is to do anything but distract from the basis of this post.

Goodbye and harass someone else.

48. I'll admit...
Edited on Thu Jan-10-08 06:09 PM by hughee99
my purpose on this thread was NOT to simply give you a "Hurray for DainBramaged" for calling an idiot an idiot. I've actually posted on one or two threads of yours so far that have started with a story about something that happened to you and how you put some idiot repuke in their place. Eventually, and that's probably not the right word to use because it implies that it takes some time to occur (but instead it's almost immediate), if someone who doesn't say you did exactly the right thing, if they imply there might have been a different way to handle the situation, or even if they suggest that "moran" would have been a better word than "idiot", you quickly accuse that person of siding with the idiot. At least that's been my experience. I was curious to see if I was just catching you on a bad day before, or if you're always that confrontational. I guess now I know.

Since you did indulge me, I'll say it.

Good for you putting that stupid person in her place!

19. Keith Ellison
is a Democrat. I hardly think the email would have been contrued to turn republicans against Obama--they already are. So out of curiosity, what makes you think the receptionist is republican? From what I can tell, you are basing it off of the fact she's apparently a Christian and won't for someone who went to a "terror school".

36. A cousin of mine sent the same email to me today...
so, I clicked on *reply all* explaining to everyone the email is false and included the Snopes link. Short time later, my cousin sent everyone the link and text from Truth or Fiction debunking the email as well. I hope my cousin learns not to just blindly send this stuff on without checking it first.

45. One more suggestion...
Next time, don't just hit "reply to all" when you debunk an email.

Be sure to go down and copy/paste all the emails from down the chain of all the other Repuke morons who passed the email along without discovering the "Bcc" option and email the rebuttal to THEM, too.

For extra effect, Cc "Al Jazeera" on the email, pointing out that because you did that, everyone on that email list is now being watched by The CIA. But if they've done nothing wrong, they have nothing to hide, as the Republifascists like to say.

43. I can see where you got your user name from.
Having to work with some of the people you do. The sleepers on DU do seem to be coming out of the wood work. What is so hard for some people to get? Even when it is spelled out so a second grader should get it, it goes over their heads. Like the discrepancies in the New Hampshire primaries. The polls were wrong only where the machines were used? Don't question the Diebold machines because they has been fixed? Yeah, sure, ya betcha, define "Fixed"
Lately, reading about the primaries I have seen a lot of 'Duh!' from even some long time DU members. Like in this thread, it is so simple, but some people just do not get it.

47. you're right. Stupid people shouldn't breed.
Back in 1991, my husband & i quit our jobs in Northern Virginia to move to New Mexico where we had bought a house.

The receptionist at our firm gave us the usual "sorry to see you go" and then asked "but why are you moving out of the country?" I was stunned. "out of the country? New Mexico is one of the 50 United States!"

Hence, New Mexico magazine has a column called "One of our 50 is Missing!" (just kidding, but there really is a column by that name).
