It starts.... my rightwing office mate just said this....

"Obama planned his vacation in Massachusetts so he could use Kennedy's death politically to push for health care reform".


Seriously. The little asshole who sits near me said that.



There are some days when you wish you got a "Punch a co-worker in the face, but keep your job" coupon to use.

1. You should print
some of those coupons and hand them out. "Here, in lieu of a punch in the mouth."

2. A RWer on another site and subsequently banned...
.. responded that Kennedy knew how to swim
and that's all he ever accomplished.

I tell you what. Boy, those RWers sure
know how to hate!

3. Maybe you could just spit in his water glass or something?
I know it would make ME feel better. No, seriously, I MEAN it. It's not as satisfying as a punch in the face, but you'll keep your job.

7. Ignorance is like a stench
and you can only get rid of it with the spray of truth. But sometimes the stench is so bad, it's best to just ignore it. Just realize that if anyone else heard it who is rational and sane, they probably think he's as stupid as you know he is.

8. I think you need to move your desk
Next thing you know he will want to bring a gun to work (IT is in the Constitution)

I assume this is cross you will have to tolerate - too bad it is way too heavy for any one personO8)

9. You Should Have Heard Some Of The Comments On C-Span This AM!!!
Even in death they couldn't "shut-up" long enough about how Kennedy was nothing more than a piece of S--t!!!

Some very disgusting comments... all they needed to say was "I didn't agree with him, but my condolences to his family! But NO, they went on and on about what a scum-bag he was!! What has happened to THIS country???

There are times I wish I had a 2x4 with me to smack them up side the head! Not that I could ever do it, but the THOUGHT remains!!!

10. I'm about to go to work too, can't wait :eyes:
I volunteer every week with these old HAGS who never fail to say something completely inappropriate (usually racist) during our few hours together. They'll probably be dancing around the table like witches today, I know for a fact they wish the past few decades of civil rights could be undone.

I have to hold my face still.. this is a test and I'll try to keep Kennedy's together-working principal in mind :*

14. So sorry for you.
My girlfriend works in an office where her boss has the radio set for Rush's program. Sometimes she starts to spout some idiocy. Guess it seeps into the unconscious. I have to pull her back from the brink.

Hang tough buddy... and remember this isn't the Japanese Steak House - it's your job. YES, I do remember you're post about that incident because I was :rofl: :toast:

15. That is a vile statement, but I do have a feeling that if that is what it took
to get serious health reform passed, Ted would not think that extreme.

17. If they believe Obama is an oracle, why aren't they hanging on his every word?
He's obviously all-powerful (according to them), so why are they fighting the inevitable?

18. Kind of like when the entire Bush Administration went on vacation for the whole month of
August to let 9/11 happen to push their PNAC agenda? .....if we are talking conspiracies, which is worse?
