About ninety minutes ago. Two guys are talking. I walk up and join them.
First Guy: …all politicians are liars. All of them. Mitt Romney is the worst liar. Everything he says is a lie.
Me: You voted for Obama, didn’t you?
First Guy: Yes, I did.
Me: He’s the biggest liar of them all.
First Guy: No he isn’t. George W. Bush is.
Me: Excuse me, I need to get to my parking meter before it expires…
What a bunch of maroons.
In that instance sounds like mark Twain’s adage about arguing with a fool –
Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.
