That’s what came to mind the other day when I was watching my kids in one of their sports activities. I engaged a married couple in friendly parental chit-chat. Somehow my blog came up; generically as I didn’t identify the slant of my politics or the website’s name, just the fact of it. In response to a question about the orientation of my blog, I did state that I was “hard core Conservative”. Both then identified themselves as being on the other end of the spectrum. Fair enough. Unlike the Borgleft* I don't demand that people agree with everything I say or believe.
They did press somewhat, and for the most part it was a civil, if not necessarily friendly, conversation… but then, in the course of the discussion, I mentioned Hillary’s 30,000 emails that had apparently been forwarded to a foreign
email address (with some supposition it was Chinese).Without missing a beat the husband said “That’s not true", and added "It can’t be true because I haven’t heard about it."
must have been an extraordinarily funny conversation for all involved
