3. On Halloween Night

We had our Obama Pumpkin and sign on the front door, while we greeted our little goblins....and one of those little brats turned back and angrily screamed at the top of his lungs..."Obama is a damned socialist..." After I had given him candy....:grr:

4. Ah, they're brainwashing them young, aren't they?

Kid doesn't even know what a socialist is, yet he's sure he hates them. That's healthy.

8. I don't blame the child

I don't blame the child...it is the parents...how sick to program such hatred at such a young age, when they cannot even conceive what a Socialist is...let alone understand it's blatant falsehood.
The child was not even 10 years of age....

5. Ha - well, how's this?

My GF just told me that her friend Jody's son - who is 6 years old - is such a huge Obama supporter that when they went trick-or-treating he refused to go up to any doors if they had a McCain sign in their yard. So, it goes both ways, lady!

7. That's a kid making a personal choice

as opposed to a snotty, self-loathing GP elitist giving a little kid a hard time to make herself feel better about her political choices.

9. Well, I'd have to agree with you there...

6. Reminds me of that freak...

who got upset because the kids were taking more than one piece of candy.

10. I bet there a ton of people in GPF who are just like her nt
