We live in a digital age...
The social Media is the new public square where people nowadays get together and exchange opinions, debate different point of view and become friends...
I love politics...I love being challenged...
I welcome people who have opposite views...but no matter how patiently I enter every interaction on my preferred social media site, I assure you it's truly frustrating to talk with republicans...Being on twitter I got my fair share of the online battles...and I can attest to this to be true, the whole truth so help me Social Media...

My friend Eva one day got enough of the run around that few GOP among who were my usual friends JB @nomodebts and Ben @sandgripper , give us...and she come up with this fast list...
Rules of engagements with GOP...
1. State opinions as well established facts. Ex:
business is good/ Government evil;
2.
Bury them with BS. Link reading materials, as if you are Moses himself
bringing tablets off the mountain...
3.
State everything in absolutes: Government is ALWAYS inefficient, Business is NEVER
inefficient. Don't worry, if proven wrong, just fall back on "nothings perfect" as
if you never used - always/never.
4.
IMPORTENT! Never, EVER concede point, even if your position has
been thoroughly discredited.
5.
Backed into a corner? Twist your opponents words so they don't resemble
what they actually send.
6.
If you find an example of any statement, no matter how
nonrepresentative...present it as the norm. Ex: if ANY union member was difficult to fire, then ALL are...
7. If all else fails, DO begin calling names. AT THE FIRST SIGN OF TROUBLE!
8. If all else fails, announce that your phone is dying, so-much as you'd like to-you simply cant continue...
So speak Eva...

This list is open for suggestions....
Feel free to send me your observation...
