My conservative cubicle mate has discovered DU!

After over a year, he finally figured out what that screen was he kept seeing all the time. :eyes; He said it was "interesting". It's a start... of course he's the kind of conservative who says he's conservative until you ask him where he stands on pretty much every single issue (the war and abortion are the big stumbling blocks here). Yet he continues to hit the Fux News* Channel site all day... :eyes: I even got him to do the Political Compass, and he ended up in the upper left, just left of the y-axis, not far from Pope Benedict. (Bear in mind that John Kerry falls, though barely, in the upper right.)

He even pointed me to this fine article (I usually jump right into the thick and din of things, going right past the articles):

There may be hope for this otherwise fine young(ish) man yet. The thing is, every time an issue like Downing Street Minutes or Fitzmas comes up, he always asks me, "But what does that have to do with us?" Well, let's see, it shows that we can't trust our own leaders* if they tell us the sky is blue...

1. Let's hope he wakes up to the nightmare that is the bush regime.

:D

2. No. That can't be. You are lying.

At least that's what they'll be saying about you on FR in about 20 minutes. Because people can't possibly ever realize just how misled they have been even when it becomes so evident that it's almost a zit on their nose. ;) :hi:
