Don't know how to copy and paste the actual tweet from Tim Tebow that she posted, but this is what it said:
I'm predicting Obama will take an early lead tomorrow..............
Until all the republicans get off work.
It made my blood boil. Basically insinuating that democrats don't work. How Christian of Tim Tebow and this friend. I need a clever answer to this, any suggestions?

(168 posts)He will get an early lead, because many Democrats already got off their asses and voted early!!!

(31,828 posts)Note - I voted this morning
All the Democratics in NJ voted on their way into work this morning! Navy Blue suits and Chivukula bumper stickers were all I saw!
It's true for me.
Love and light and 'innocent' responses throws them off their ignorant little came.

(15,659 posts)I unfriended the class idiot after he posted about how he was going to have a sit-down with some of his neighbors and explain to them that Obama is a socialist and the anti-Christ.

(81,314 posts)I will not allow that shit on my Facebook page. They even excoriate me about how we "liberals are such hypocrites because we're against the First Amendment." Not at all! I'm against somebody else deciding they simply must bring their poison over onto MY page. I don't interfere with their ability to spread their poison all over everywhere else. Just NOT on mine!!! And I delete whatever posts I do not like, on MY page.

(15,659 posts)I have unfriended a few and simply removed a few posts from my page. I make a judgement based on my actual relationship with the person in real life.

(2,434 posts)Many Dems work two jobs, so the actual vote will look much like the early lead. Sorry about your sour koolaid.

(81,314 posts)Some people are just assholes. Glad to have you with us, and don't forget - there's always the delete option for unwelcome shit like this that somebody else decides to post on YOUR page. Let them confine their shit to their own page!!!!
Perhaps you can dedicate your vote for Barack Obama to assholes like them!

(4,475 posts)It actually made me angrier than just about anything else anyone has posted this season.
I was like, wow, is this what you think of me? BTW, I voted for Obama very early this morning BECAUSE I'll be putting in a 14 hour day at work today. But thanks for stereotyping me as a welfare queen, assholes. I'm going to have to have a talk with a few "friends" about that one. Discussing differing ideas is one thing; making ugly jokes about a friends' work ethic simply based on their political leanings is another.

(3,855 posts)I've had cons say this jokingly and in all seriousness that somehow only republicans work for a living.
So I asked if I should quit my second no benefits job since apparently I was supposed to be getting a check from Obama all this time.
Strangely no response.

(9,748 posts)Remind her that Democrats favor making it easier for working stiffs to vote while Republicans continually try to make it more difficult. It is always a Republic secretary of state that cuts down on polling places, etc making it more difficult for people, even those with IDs, to vote.
