My friend at lunch today asked me what was my blue wrist band for
I told her that I was a proud Democrat and that was our color. Blue stands for "Think and Buy Blue". Then she said that she is a republican. I told her that she should wear a red wrist band. It was the color of blood.

6. Nah, she's still my friend.
She says she is a republican but I don't even think she votes. Imo, she is a liberal that thinks she's conservative. She told me once that if Hillary Clinton would ever run for president she would never vote for her because she can't stand her. I asked her why she can't stand her. She coudln't really answer. She does hang around republican men a lot. That's why she thinks she's a republican.

5. Or one with a tracking chip since she undoubtedly wants big
brudda to take every last bit of freedom from her so finally she doesn't have to think at all for herself.

12. You're the first person that has told me that in a long while.
:-)

The only problem is she wasn't your freeper rabid type. I really don't think she's political at all.

9. How can anyone admit they're repuke?
Good grief! I would never, ever admit something like that. Did she say anything after you told her to wear a red BLOOD bracelet?

11. Repukes have marketed themselves well to the gullible and ignorant.
Lots of people go around thinking they're republican, but when you ask them specific questions, it turns out they aren't republican at all.

13. No, she started laughing and thought it was funny.
I don't think she picked up on it relating to the thousands killed in the Iraq war.
