NaBloPoMo - Day 11 - Showing restraint...maybe

How ironic that on the one week anniversary of electing THE MAN and on Veterans Day, a day of humble honor and remembrance, a co-worker of mine would send a chain email describing how "we", "(the more intelligent Christian conservative GOP members who voted for McCain)", should be praying for Obama and all those who are being "duped" by him and his "Narcissistic Personality Disorder". REALLY?! Why would someone send this to me? Did they see the HUGE Obama button that I proudly wore just a week ago. I'm trying to practice restraint in composing a snarky response back to my co-worker but I'm not sure how to go about it. I could just say "please don't include me on any chain emails in the future" or "I'm a liberal, Buddhist, Socialist Democrat who doesn't appreciate your blatant ignorance of appropriate professional dealing regarding respect to people with differing opinions from yours."

Although that is a gross exaggeration, if they can say shocking things so can I! Maybe I'll go with the first one...I think this situation calls for some Meatballs with out Borders...

there are those who, even given the opportunity, would not recognize or appreciate a meatball with or without borders.
