TWO, count 'em TWO RIGHTIES FLIPPED!!! (personal FB victory) [View all]
Some of you know that I go round after round with some friends from the old neighborhood. They are socio economically repressed (think Roseanne) and some quite frankly, are racist. Of course, they don't *think* they're racist, and I am pretty sure their education stopped before critical thinking skills were developed. They cling to the birth certificate (yup, brought up even tonight while the debate was on)
Well, it's never the rightie you're debating, it's always common friends. TWO of them, one the spouse of a friend, and the other a girl I went to high school with both sent me messages that said that they didn't always agree with me but I back it up with facts and the loved watching my retorts throughout the debate.
BOTH ARE VOTING FOR OBAMA NOW!!!
I want to thank each and every person who bothers to help anyone who says, "I am in it right now and too caught up to think clearly, please help" You help us make a marginal difference, and all those marginal differences add up to THAT margin, if we just all try. I am shaking right now, because I never would have expected this from either of these people.
I'd rather make a difference than make a dollar, and tonight, I helped make a difference!
It's not the first time this has happened, and I pray it won't be the last!
THANK YOU DU!!!
