A friend of mine posted this recently, and I found it so amusing (and dead on) I can't resist posting here to share with you all whee :
"There were protesters on the train platform handing out pamphlets on the evils of America.
I politely declined to take one.
"An elderly woman was behind me getting off the escalator and a young (20' ish) female protester offered grandma a pamphlet, which she politely declined.
"The young protester put her hand on the grandma's shoulder as a gesture of friendship, and in a very soft voice said, 'Lady, don't you care about the children of Iraq?'
"The old woman looked up at her and said, "Honey, my father died in Germany during World War II, I lost my husband in the Korean War, and a son in Vietnam. All three died so you could have the right to stand here, and bad mouth our country. If you touch me again, I'll stick this umbrella up your a** and OPEN IT."
