My conversation with a freeper today:

I was eating lunch with a friend and another lady I had never met. My friend is from New York and mentioned Hillary Clinton. She asked if I thought she was going to run for prez in 2008. I said well it's really too early to tell.

The other lady (the freeper) said to me "well, do you like her?"

I said "As a person or as a potential president?"

Freeper: "There's a difference?"

Me: "Sure there is. I admire her a great deal. I think she is brilliant. But I am not sure I want her to run for president."

Freeper: "Well, I can't stand her. Neither can my husband"

Me: "Why not?"

Freeper: "She has a lying scum for a husband."

Me: "So you don't like her because of what her husband did?"

Freeper: "He lied to her and to the American people. She apparently doesn't care if he lies."

Me: "I don't understand how you know what she thinks about what he did. I certainly don't remember her making any public statements about it."

Freeper: "Well, he's a liar. And part of the reason we are having so many problems with foreign countries today is because of his policies."

Me: "I saw on the news this morning that there are 100,000 people in India protesting against bush today. I didn't hear that any of them were mad at Clinton."

Freeper: "Well, Clinton is a fucking liar."

Me: "So I take it you think he was a bad president."

Freeper: "You got that right."

Me: "So if you are using lying as a criteria, then I gather you dislike bush as well."

Freeper: "That's not what I said."

Me: "But when I asked you why you didn't like Clinton, you said he was a liar. You admitted not liking his wife because HE is a liar. So I take it lying is an important sin in your book."

Freeper: "Well, Clinton lied."

Me: "So you must hate bush too since he lied us into war. You know no one died when Clinton lied. But so far, almost 2300 of our soldiers have died in Iraq. Do you know how many died on Clinton's watch?"

Freeper: "Well, I can't stand Hillary. I like McCain."

Me: "I am not surprised."

By this time, my friend was kicking me under the table. LOL

Logic apparently escapes freepers.
