Reply #7: was asked at lunch if I thought this would sway the election in *'s favor [View All]

the woman is a nice person, but she knows I support Kerry, and she supports Bush.

She came up and asked me if I thought the horrible thing THK said about laura would swing the election in bush's favor. I just looked at her and said "you DO realize she apologized?"
"I don't care about that, answer the question"
"you don't care if she apologized?...er....well, I think its pretty insignificant compared to an unjust war in Iraq, torturing Irai prisoners, health car...."
"no, no, no, not all that other crap, just answer the question"

I paused, considering.....

"I think that if people are small-minded enough to think this is important, then for them it will be an important point in the election."

She smiled and walked off, thinking she had cornered me into something, not realizing I'd just called her small minded.
