Raise Your Hand If You Want a Quick Story of a Dumbass Republican...

Ok I encountered something truly bizarre today. (I live in South Florida and frankly see or hear something bizarre everyday.)

Early this morning I'm in the drive-through line at McDonalds for a coffee and orange juice. Nice morning so my windows were down. The 10 year old, rather beaten up car in front of me was plastered with right-wing, bat-shit crazy bumper stickers. "Have you prayed for a liberal today?", "Bush/Cheney 04", "This Car Insured By Colt 45", etc. She even had a "First there was God, and then there was RUSH" sticker. You get the drift.

There was a lady driving and she had three large dogs shoved into the car. Well she's fumbling around for awhile at the speaker and kept telling the nice lady at McDonalds to "hang on." Finally I hear her say "I've never been here before and don't know what you have." OK, now let's be honest. How many have never once been to a McDonalds? I mean really. I hate their food and rarely order it. But coffee, a soda, some juice, a frigging sundae. We've all been there at some point.

OK, so she spends about 3 minutes asking questions. I hear her order some sort of sandwich and then she asks for a large bowl so she can give her dogs some water. The lady at McDs says she doesn't have a bowl but can give her a large cup of water. The lady responds LOUDLY "I can't believe you people. So rude and unhelpful." Just give me my sandwich.

The lady says please pull around and I pull up. I start by saying I don't need a dog dish and yes I have been here before. I heard lots of giggling through the speaker. I order, pull forward and the lady's car is completely gone. I asked the the lady in the window where the cranky women went and she said that she tried to pay in a check. Of course they don't take checks. So she spit on the window (missing the employee thank goodness) and hauled ass out of there.

Yup. These are many of the types of people we are up against. Fucking loony-toons who've been brainwashed by the right. They hate because they are told to hate. They don't have a clue about reality.

spare the tender ears... :evilgrin:

what a yutz.

without hats and the sun just fries their brains........ just a thought

It is very possible. But people down here are generally assholes anyway. I moved from Ohio where if you put on a turn signal 90% of the people will slow down, flash some lights and let you in. Here they could be 200 ft back and they'll gun the gas and then flip you off for trying to cut them off.

Amazing.

:D

They have the same manners as their god Rushbo.

that's what they are.

I'll admit I've been once. In 1975. My first and last time.

I'd love to find someone in their 50s (my guess of this women's age based on her hair, voice, etc) who's never been to McDs. No coffee, no quickie stop while at an airport, no run into the turnpike rest area for a soda.

Must not have been able to read either. They have that menu board to order before you get to the window. It has pictures and everything! That would drive me insane.

I was behind a guy at the post office drive by mailbox a few weeks ago. So he pulls in right in front of me and gets to the box. He's digging around and fumbling with stuff. I'm thinking to myself, this ain't a drive through at a fast food place pal! Throw your damn letters in the box and go!

He finally gets his stuff together and drops his letters on the ground. Now he can't get out without backing up and I can tell he doesn't see me behind him. Thank god no one was behind me or he would have backed into me. I was able to cram my truck into reverse and back up first. He gets out and sees me and doesn't even smile or anything. I would have at least waved and yelled sorry or something.

in a McDonald's once. I sometimes go to Wendy's or even BK, but never to McDonald's.

There are all the dumbass Republicans I need.

i mean, maybe she had been in a mental institution since the 50's, who knows?

:shrug:

so she was going to present a check that probably would not clear the bank. When I travel with my dog, I always take water and a bowl for her. This lady had to ask for one. I know we are talking about Florida, but wouldn't you have thought she would take something along for three dogs?

astonishing that someone could have been alive and not been to a McDonald's or at least some other drive-through at some point.

But people astonish you. Years ago on a completely different forum a man who taught college English somewhere posted stuff he got from his students. The one I remember best was the young woman, born about 1950, who honestly didn't think Japanese people even existed until WWII. From what he could gather from her, she apparently thought they just somehow sprang into existence in time for WWII. He also talked of people who had never ever been outside the small town they'd grown up in, and had a great deal of difficulty understanding that the rest of the outside world existed at all. This woman almost sounds like one of them.

And she's come to the same place about politics that the Camper followers got to yesterday about religion.

but I frequently stop at them to use the restrooms on long trips.

I've gotten coffee there which was actually pretty good. Not the corn syrup laden ice coffees they promote but a good old fashioned plain hot cup of java.

retirement state. He said that was wonderful because he knew I was liberal.

I thought to myself, great! My decision was absolutely correct!

aw heck, just stay in the north; it's cold, but at least it's sane.

Before you slam TX take a good look at Wisconsin, Michigan or Indiana. Or any one of several other states where the teabagger kochsuckers reign.

It is the Southernization of national politics that we are witnessing today; it has been slowly going on ever since Nixon's Southern Strategy and the creation of Super Tuesday.

those are asshole republican values

I don't think he's ever lived in Texas.

And about those "Texas values", here's something for you to think about.
