We can say.

So, you're anti-choice and you support the movement and the bombings and murders too?

So, you support the anti-choice movement but not the bombings.

So you can do it with anti-choice but we can't do it with the Iraq war.

---------

You can't be that way. If you support the movement you support all of their bombings and killing too.


Is that a good come-back?

Please let me know.

2. I doubt a freeper could follow
a logical conclusion that takes 3 sentences. Try to limit it to 3 words, preferably each having 1-2 syllables.

4. I always ask them who made that rule?
And, then I say "if it was Rush Limbaugh, then I have to tell you - I don't have to follow any rules he decides to make up." That "rule" doesn't even make sense!!

5. A good comeback is..
... "Go enlist. Slapping a ribbon on your SUV is not supporting the troops."

7. I slap my military retiree ID card on the bar and ask them to
proceed with their argument. I also ask them if they need a ride down to the recruiting station. God, does that piss them off. I never get tired of that fun.
