Did I piss a few pukes off tonite or what?

[Psychoblues99]

As many of you already know, I'm a race (stock car) fan. I'm also a blues/rock jammer but I do like to visit the track when I'm not jammin'. Racin' was my thing tonite. As many of you might also know or quess, stock car racin' is still pretty much a segregated sport and populated by a good number of racists, sexists, homophobes, etc. But my experience tonite was purely political, as I knew someday it would be.

We had a young driver tonite with only a few races under his belt. The kid has got cajones the size of watermelons is my deduction. He also has some talent and a true competitive spirit, things I always appreciate. He was racing a veteran driver. For those of you that don't know, stock car races are actually a number of races in one. Neither was racing for the lead but both were racing for position. Anyway, the veteran driver cut the kid off coming off a turn but the kid dug in, allowed a bump and held his ground. Ol' vet got pissed and pulled into the pits, as it were, for the nite. I was on my feet for the kid.

A jerk in front of me turned around and yelled (it is very loud during a stock car race) "That lil' son of a bitch cut him off!!!" I yelled back, "No he didn't, he didn't let that son of a bitch cut him off!!!!!! Jerk would not be satisfied. Although he and I sat back down, his displeasure was not to be contained at that point. In the almost millisecond moments of relative quietness the following conversation between us was held. Of course it's paraphrased, my memory ain't perfect and I didn't have time to take notes and a recorder would've been useless.

Jerk: "That man is a track champion!!!"
Me: "It don't take much to be President of America!!!!"
Jerk: "You're right about that!!!!"
Me: "Just look at the fool we have now!!!!!!!"
Jerk---- Well, he just sat there turning a strange maroon color and cutting his eyes back at me.

The race was over and the kid came in back in the pack. Ol' champion was done for the nite. Jerk was clearly beside himself and turned around and the conversation continued.

Jerk: "You must love the terrorists."
Me: "Why no I don't, I just think the prez is a warmonger and an idiot."
Jerk: "You must be a Goddamned Democrat!!!"
Me (Standing to my feet): "No Sir, I'm no Goddamned Democrat, I am a Democrat and you can put your Goddamned up your pious blind ass, Sir"
Jerk (also standing to his feet and then sitting back down): "It's just a race, forget it."

Bear in mind that Jerk had a few buddies with him as did I. Jerk would not be satisfied. He and his buds gathered up their crap to move, I thought. Then I see Jerk at the grandstand gap with racetrack security pointing at ME of all people. His buds were hiding a little lower in the gap. The security guy stood around down there while Jerk et al actually left the track altogether. I watched them go out the gate. Mr. Security sauntered on up after the next race which was about 10 or 15 minutes. Please bear in mind that a few of my race buds are pretty right wing, it's hard to find good left wing race fans. The following is the conversation:

Mr. S: "Yall had a little trouble up here tonite?"
My best r/w bud: "Not at all, Some damn good racin', don't you think?"
Mr. S: "We don't allow fighting in the stands."
My bud: "Ain't been no fightin' up here, what's the problem?"
Mr. S: "You know they're catchin' drunk drivers right down the road, be careful."
My bud: "We're not drinkin'."
Actually, I'd had a beer during the heat races but I wasn't driving and that's not important here.
Mr. S: "I see yall here a lot, enjoy the races."
All of us: "Yeah man, next week" or something similar.

I don't know about any of you good DUers, but I thought it was a fairly productive nite. I just wonder about ol' jerk and his buddies? Maybe the roadblock got them. I know my buds thought the whole thing hilarious, even the r/wingers!!!!!!!!!!

2. So the moron turd couldn't win the exchange

so he tried to turn you in? For what? Wanting our family members not to come home in body bags just so Haliburton can suck off of the public teet. What a stupid dweeb.

Do you support the terrorists? God!! What a moron. I would have said "No but your buddy Bush does, and I assume that by the company you chose, you must as well.

5. no problem PB99

They cant stand it when people are critical of Bush. Lol I have joked the most easy arguement to win is "Bush is a fool", just get my calendar and you will laugh at his ignorance.

7. The real deal, JK, is that most of them, even the rather slow ones are

aware that * isn't very smart and more and more they are discovering that he is rather unappealing. Many have questions about the unnecessary killing of our troops for no apparent reason and many wonder openly about our unilateralism even if they can't pronounce it or spell it. Can you dig it?

12. of course

I just a few days back heard a RW I know, say he hopes there isnt another war till hes in his 60's, it may have been out of sarcaism. This kid really isnt a warhawk, and he did give another RW kid I know hell for saying it would be good to have another civil war, but hes really religious right, I am Catholic very secular as you have seen, and also this kid is Catholic but it seems like southern fundamalism, he almost made me agnostic him and his friend "civil war would be cool"

4. Thought for a minute

U were talking about Jimmy and Bush league Bush.

[Psychoblues99]

6. I can identify with that, but no, I was not talking about Winston Cup

Spencer and the outstanding young Kurt Busch from the Roush team. I was talking about a local dirt track thing. You know, where the real racing is and where you or I could afford to compete. Kinda like high school football except in warmer weather, can you dig it?

8. Hey, that sounds like fun.

Those kind of races are a lot more fun than national NASCAR races. Those are to pro, to boring.

[Booberdawg]

9. Ok now I'm convinced

I take back all the things i said behind your back now:D

[Sweetpea]

10. It pisses me off when people say you support the terrorists....

I guess they don't know about the 9/11 report.

[Syn_Dem]

11. It pisses me off in general

when people spew crap that they got from Faux News.
