Too late. I just told one lady. That the indictments are coming down and don't buy the crap cuz indictments are coming down on the Administration.

She said I had a good point. She called it spin.

1. If people don't see the pattern...
It's usually because they just haven't thought of it that cynically, but definitely point out that there's a pattern. Let them make their own judgements.

All but the wingnuts usually figure out yup, you're right.

2. Put the bug in their ear
gently, if possible, so they think it's their own epiphany.

5. Thank you.
For not calling that airport by its "other" name.

Pop! Pop! Pop!

Another poster just put up a CNN story that the source for the terra threat is a known unreliable.

8. I will say IAH C-D & E terminals are the most effed up confusing terminals
I've ever been in.

Then I realize that the new namesake may have had an affect on the new fucked up design. They didn't do the gates across odd on one side or even. They are in number order all the way down and around.

That is fucked up.

Plus How you get to E from C is FUCKED UP and I've never seen D.

13. It is a horrible design, I agree. (But aptly named for that reason though
I never give Poppy credit, perhaps I should remembering the f'd up layout!)

7. What's the point?
I work around huge numbers of these morons. I NEVER talk politics, unless somebody else brings it up, directly and in my face. I don't need the extra stress.

12. And you don't have to see their faces on a regular basis.
That makes a difference. Arguing with a freeper and being able to walk totally out of their life is a plus.
