My mother just shared a conversation she had with the owner of a medium sized tree trimming business (he owns many trucks and the latest equipment and often trims all the trees in the neighborhood in just a few hours). He noticed her yard signs (Obama Biden, of course) and they started talking politics.
My mother told him that she could never vote Republican because they wanted to take away women's rights like contraception and abortion.
His reply, "Well, I have to go to Mexico to hire workers because you are killing all our kids."
After an initial hesitation due to a wtf moment, she responded, "I have several grandkids that can't find jobs."
His response, "That is because of the terrible economy."
How in the heck can anyone reason with these people!!
