You know what I hate?

When you are debating with a reich-wing slimeball who actually DEFENDS Ann Coulter referring to soldiers dying and getting maimed as "getting their hair mussed."

They actually accuse you of misconstruing the quote or taking it out of context (which is pretty hard to do).

Especially when you (like I) have done time in the military and find that quote particularly insulting.

1. at least there is

an attempt to argue back, weak though it might be.

I have a very conservative cousin who, when I state a fact such as Prescott Bush's Nazi connection or Shrub's AWOL simply rolls his eyes and says, "You don't really believe that, do you?"

Now, how can you argue with "logic" like that?

4. Exactly.

Wingnuts will never discuss the facts, or they'll come up with every excuse in the book to justify the BFEE's actions. When a nutcase asked me "Weren't you glad Bush was President on 9/11?" and I responded that the idiot didn't even get up off his ass and immediately excuse himself from a second-grade classroom when told the country was under attack, the excuse was "Well, that's a good thing because he didn't want to alarm the children." What total horseshit.

Hell, if Clinton had sat on his ass for 10 seconds in the same situation, the repukes would have hounded and denounced him until he resigned in shame.

5. If someone wants to defend her statements

then there is very little point in debating them.
