So… Yesterday, I got involved in a lunch debate about this new Health plan. The majority of the people I work with are former military and most of them pretty strong Republicans. One woman a few desks down stood up and just started to rant on us, “You know the Cold War ended 40 years ago, and we are too mature as a country to keep fearing Socialism.. We need to embrace a good thing no matter what our “Fore-Father’s” intended.”
I was stunned into silence (after getting done laughing). I think what I don’t understand.. is how only 3 of us found that funny… Later that afternoon we were instructed to never discuss politics out in the open again..
I guess what I’m really asking is… Is it funny to you?
It isn’t funny. I don’t see anything whatsoever funny about it to be honest. My question is this: Who “instructed” you to never discuss politics “out in the open”, by what authority, and was the commie “instructed” the same?
I didn’t ask if she was told the same thing…
I was laughing about the “cold war” comment.. she needs to buff up on her history. 40 years is not even close.
We were out in the open.. and I guess it was disruptive to people who weren’t on their lunch hour.. whatever.. She was kinda a commie 🙂
