BritishSword: Can you tell me wether you voted for something in particular or just to keep the other guy out.

Pause and let that sink in

Democrat:And also because Romney's views on women and h0w w0men sh0uld be regulated scared the hell 0ut 0f me. N0t t0 menti0n that everything ab0ut that man rubbed me the wr0ng way. He was s0 0ut 0f t0uch with the average american, and it sh0wed. I just didn't see h0w he w0uldn't take us backward 50 years if he made it t0 0ffice

BritishSword: Ok - views on women - uhh what are his views on women?
Democrat: that w0men d0n't deserve equal pay, that w0men sh0uld remain at h0me raising kids and c00king dinner, and that w0men sh0uldn't have the right t0 c0ntr0l their 0wn repr0ductive 0rgans
 at least, that's what I g0t when I listened t0 him speak
BritishSword: Well the first one is definitely out of place in this day and age... I wonder if these views are mormon teachings
I'll have to ask my Mormon buddy.
Democrat: I'm not sure. I don't know any Mormons.

Democrat:And also because Romney's views on women and h0w w0men sh0uld be regulated scared the hell 0ut 0f me.

How women should be "regulated?"  Wtf?  Is this person on drugs?

N0t t0 menti0n that everything ab0ut that man rubbed me the wr0ng way. He was s0 0ut 0f t0uch with the average american, and it sh0wed.

That is his/her way of saying that he isn't "hip."   Wow, so glad people are voting on who is cool and hip and "in touch" with their emotions.

I just didn't see h0w he w0uldn't take us backward 50 years if he made it t0 0ffice 

Where were we 50 years ago?    And how would he have taken us there?   Sorry but this person is an idiot.

Fascinating isn't it?

But the bit that gets me is the thinking that Obama is trying to help the country. They do actually seem to genuinely believe that. There doesn't seem to be fanaticism or vitriole.  So yeah, I could go with idiot or I could go with ignorance.
  No one would think otherwise unless they were presented with evidence to the contrary - whos going to do that? Not MSNBC for sure.

Thing is I am seeing This a LOT from democrats. Obama would save the day if the mainly republican congress would stop bitching and get out of his way. The human capacity for excuse making knows no bounds.

This is going to be a problem, even if Obama crashes and burns which he will we're gonna get this, Oh but it was all the republican senates fault and they should have let him do what he had to do and blah blah... and they still won't get it through there thick heads, so it won't be as easy as I thought.
