What would you do? What would John Galt do?
You walk into a small beach bar on the ocean and a guy is sitting there. You have met him at this establishment before so you sit down near him and strike up a conversation. This is the sort of bar where patrons generally talk freely amongst each other. The man was in politics years ago in Kansas and occasionally brings up political topics. You know that his opinions are all over the map and have even moved to the pool table in the sand in order to not listen to him before. You try to steer the conversation away from politics, but he is not deterred. Then he says:
1) He is for raising the minimum wage
What would you do?
2) He states that minimum wage will not affect unemployment and the law of supply and demand has been repealed.
What would you do?
3) Then he says Obamacare is great.
WWYD?
4) After explaining that the only areas were the cost of medical has gone down are those the government stayed out of (e.g., Laser correction surgery), he says we are the only advanced nation without nationalized health care.
WWYD?
5) Then he says kathleen sebelius, who is from Kansas, is a wonderful women.
6) Then he calls you a racist, because you state Obama has the same philosophy Stalin, Moa, Hilter, etc.
7) Then he states we should get rid of the Constitution.
WWYD?

There were plenty of Germans who cowered. The ones who pointed out how evil Hitler's ideas were left if they pointed them out early enough. If they waited too long, they got sent to a concentration camp.
Regarding public confrontation, privately taking someone aside, just ignoring the situation, or leaving, some of my response would depend on a) whether I was hosting the party, b) he was hosting the party, c) how well I knew the Obama supporter, and d) how much I liked him/her personally before this incident.
they guy is 88 yrs old. I was worried there would be a heart attack in front of me...which might be poetic justice, but as I said, in person I am not confrontational. ;)
1. I'd tell him, that's a great idea. How much of your money will you contribute to that effort.
2. You're maybe right, but what would we do if you're wrong and you have to take a lay off.
3. O'care must be great, but how do you afford these new high premiums and where do you find a doctor?
4. Well that's true, but we're also the nation that has the best healthcare and the most advances in medical technology. How do we keep up to that under O'care?
5. Did you date her when you were both in Kansas politics?
6. Those other guys were white.
7. Then how could you make sure that you could sit here and have this conversation?
Then i'd simply say, We still have the 2nd Amendment and I took a solemn oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Then I'd get up and go to the pool game.
