You Can Always Tell A Conservative By The Loud Voice And The Psychosis

[redbrunja]

I am not even going to start telling you about everything that sucked about my day. Let me just skip to the end, the absolute worse, where at 1:25 (I leave at 1:30) the guy who had earlier made an inappropriate comment when I said, "I can ring you up." noticed I had an Obama sticker, and wanted to know why I was voting for him.

Me: I like his plan.

Him: What plan? *voice gets loud* [something, something] what about his radical Muslin background?

Me: What radical Muslin background?

Him: His father was a radical Muslim.

Me: I'd check your facts.

Him: It's not cause I'm a conservative! I'm not a McCain man, as far as I'm concerned he's a liberal too, there hadn't been a true conservative in Washington since Roland Regan.

Me: Look, I really don't want to have this conversation with you, I leave in five minutes.

He harangues me some more.

Me: Look, I don't want to discuss this with you, I'm not telling you how to vote.

I go to put in my time, say goodbye to Normally Awesome Girl, and as I'm walking out he goes, "I didn't mean to offend you," something something, and I go, "I am not offended. I just worked an eight hour shift and I don't want to have this conversation with you."

Him: "I don't see what your job has to do with it!"

Me: I don't want to have this conversation.

*leaves*

What really sucks in that since this guy comes in every fucking day, I'm going to have to see him again, and I'm going to have to tell the boss this happened (their friends) and hopefully she'll tell him to never try to talk politics with me again.

Curiously, where do people get the idea of the fact that Obama is a SEKRIT MUSLIM?I mean just because his stepdad is Indonesian doesn't mean he's automatically Muslim. It's like saying all British people are stuffy uppercrust who drink tea everyday.

Frankly I WOULD NOT CARE IF HE WERE MUSLIM!
Yeah, really I thought America was all about embracing diversity.

His name (can remember it it's first or sur) is both an arabic and african name. That's were all the muslin bs comes from.
