...a friend had invited us to a Party and I was casually introduced to a few people at a table in the back yard as a "Democrat" who at one time had run against Rep. Joel Hefley.

The right winger wasted no time in making his points. "Has there ever been anyone with less integrity than Barack Obama.... How could anyone vote for these abortionists, these gays, these illegal aliens taking our jobs..."

I said, "Some people have a problem with Romney hiding hundreds of millions of dollars in overseas accounts and not paying taxes on it..."

'Well, what's wrong with that !!", he said...

I ended the conversation right there because I could see it was going nowhere and would be a real party pooper.
