Really. I was shopping at the local Sprouts market this evening. As I was loading my groceries, a white bearded old man (he looked just like The Grandfather in the old film, Heidi) who was collecting the carts in the parking lot stopped and asked me, "do you hate America?" I looked at him and replied, "Excuse me?" At first I thought he was being facetious, but then he asked me again, "do you hate America?" while pointing to the decal. He then said, "He (Ron Paul) is going to start a revolution. You must hate America if you are for Him because He is going to rip the country right up the middle within a year. The man (Ron Paul) is an old fool. He's an old fool." Of course, my first thought was to ask, do you hate our Republic and then to say you, Sir, are the old fool. Instead, I simply replied, Sir, I profoundly disagree with you.
I have to admit, I was sincerely taken aback by that confrontation.
