Uh oh
Lost one FB "friend" over the HCR vote, and I didn't even post about it, LOL.

Of course, it could be that I joined the fan page for "The Tea Party Is Over" :D

1. oh honey.
I've lost so many friends over being a liberal.

My FB status right now is "It's a good day for liberals. HELL. YEAH!"

I had three people hounding me in the comments, going "OMG NO UR GONNA BE UNHAPPY IN A LITTLE WHILE, LIB LOLOLOL"

One was my cousin, another was a guy I went to school with.

I deleted a guy awhile back because he was an annoying Muslim-hating conservative. He kept talking about how "the only good Muslim is a dead Muslim!" and all this crazy shit talk.

*rolls eyes*

4. Despite having a few wingnut distant relatives and in-laws
I have done well in not losing any. The person who de-friended me is no loss - neither a relative or an in-law, not that that would have been much of a loss either, lol. (most of my in-laws and several of my relatives are good liberal Democrats - but every family tree has a few nuts and bad apples)

2. heh, I lost a facebook "friend" too
Edited on Mon Mar-22-10 01:15 PM by charlie and algernon
but then I did post about the passage of the bill and mentioned the "baby killer" remark in my status. Of course I saw then that this "friend" had joined a racist anti-Obama facebook group, so I'm not so sad over losing him.

3. I'm about to
My friend wanted to serve in the military but b/c of a heart condition he was born with he could not. He recently had a heart transplant. He hasn't worked for a few years b/c his heart would not allow it. Now, do you think he has private health insurance? Do you think he is not receiving SSDI? x( I've stayed away from his comments so far. I don't even know how to say LOOK IN THE MIRROR!!

5. I haven't been surprised or disappointed
by the comments today, everything from my doctor friends saying "Hooray for the patients" to the Catholics saying "Millions of silent screams funded by govt" :silly:

6. Oh I've pissed off a number of friends of friends today..
Fortunately almost all my FB friends are DU'ers or former DU'ers:)
I did like one guys comment that I was accusing him of wanting me to die..Not quite. I just told him he obviously had never been sick. Which he didn't deny.....
This is the one issue I cared most about in the election, so no way am I keeping my mouth shut! (as some in GD found out..)
