Ask a religious person how a benevolent God can set up a system where predators to eat their prey alive (until death finally occurs), or let a forest fire caused by lightning burn animals (and sometimes people) alive, or allow children to die painfully of cancer. These things have nothing to do with "Free Will," and absolutely NOTHING good can come of them (certainly nothing to justify the horror). The response won't be logical, but you might get a programmed sound bite like "We can't understand what God does"--which answers nothing, but triggers no "thinking process."

Liberals are religious: you can't present statistics, studies, analyses, or any information about ANYTHING (no matter how obvious) because the Liberal will pretend they didn't even hear it (indeed, I suspect the Liberal brain will filter it out and actually not hear it). They won't respond to your info, except for a blanket denial with a programmed sound-bite response (that says nothing) & total refusal to research the matter, or even look at research you have in your hand.
You just described the members of the cult of the Donald. Stock answer to anything; Obama, Hillary, fake news. You see it every day in multiple threads right here.

Obama is not the President anymore? You might want to tell him that. He is galavanting all over the globe undermining the US

This guy seemed to actually think that Obama is a community organizer who would move back to Chicago to spend the rest of his life helping inner city Blacks, or something like that. You have to be a complete dolt to be surprised by something like this. I am always shaking my head whenever I talk to these kinds of people and see how little they know. As another example, I was talking to another of them and I explained that our education system has been significantly dumbed down and that the average high school grad today couldn't pass a 5th grade Math exam from the early 1900s. Again, the liberal didn't believe me until I provided proof, and after that, he was completely surprised, it looked like a fuse had blown in his brain from all the cognitive dissonance.
It really chaps your hide, doesn't it?

If this conversation with "another one of them" (wtf?) happened, I'm pretty sure you correctly read his reaction but totally missed the target of his incredulity.

Likely "the liberal" you attempted to enlighten will henceforth avoid discussing politics with coworkers and/or avoid eye contact with strangers while waiting in line. Ditto the Volvo driver.

Just for fun. This applies to both sides. Read about the lyrics, it's interesting how history repeats itself again and again and again. Especially with hate fueled troll threads on both sides.

Wow. There you have it folks. The OP just proved that all liberals are clueless. Everybody send him a cookie.
Kellyanne Conway just bought a $7 million house near Obama, but I bet the right wingers have no issue with that.

Pretty sure he wouldn't have passed a 5th grade debate class from the early 1900s.
