Jaw-dropping email
Received this from a distant (geographically) acquaintance. You can't tell me this wasn't planted by *somebody*. (And, yes, I know all the responses to this. I sent them back.)

What A Country ??
5 million of our older Americans have not signed up yet for their Medicare, Part D, drug plan------they are old and confused. We are not going to grant them an extension. However, 12 million illegal aliens are in our country and we are going
to allow them to stay, protest, procreate, receive support monies, attend schools, avoid paying income taxes, have our teachers take 300 hours
of ESL (English as a Second Language) training at our expense, etc.
WE MUST REALLY DISLIKE OUR OLD PEOPLE......OR WE MUST REALLY LOVE
TACOS!!! If this ticks you off, pass it on!!

6. Ummm....
To let people know what's out there? (Thought you might appreciate the info--know your enemy, and all that. As I said in the OP, it seems likely to me that somebody planted this.)

And, yes, to respond to replies below, I did respond appropriately to the perpetrator.

2. Racist all the way
:eyes:

If I got something like that from anyone I know they'd get a tongue lashing and if they are a distant acquaintance, I'd seriously consider blocking them for actually forwarding that racist trash.

4. nothing wrong with tacos.
And if the Republicans designed Medicare Part D so poorly that seniors aren't signing up, why not give them an extension?

5. It was probably from my father in law..
I have no idea who sends him all this kind of crap, but he is just so happy he can push that forward button on his computer. I don't even know if he reads any of it. At least 4 times a week I get all kinds of God Bless America/the troops, pledge in schools, in god we trust, boycott the Muslim stamp, etc. The funny thing is that I don't think he has ever been a church goer.

9. I got a look at my RW mom's emails...
when I was fixing her computer. Maybe they know each other. She has that stuff, too. I gave her a look when I saw the Muslim stamp one.

10. The strange thing is that my FIL thinks bush is an idiot.
I swear I think he just hits forward without reading all this crap. My sister in law has even sent his stuff back to him with a snopes link proving its garbage and he still keeps doing it. I also got the Muslim stamp one from my very religous "good Christian" church going aunt and I was so tempted to ask her if Muslim bashing was very christian like.
