My Professor debated me on Bush today in front of our class

[GingerSnaps]

He has been referring to me as Ms. Kerry since the beginning of the semester because I wear my Kerry baseball cap to class.

Today our class ended about 1 hour early because the Professor wanted to ask everyone who they were voting for. We have 28 students in the class and half of the class answered the question. Both of the students from China were for Bush, two of the sisters from MN were for Bush and believe it or not the girl from France was for Bush and the rest were Kerry supporters. My Professor is from Greece and the first day of class he said that he was a Kerry supporter but today he admitted that he voted for Bush the last time and he will be voting for * on Tuesday. After he asked the rest of the class questions he started questioning me for the duration of the class.

We had a debate which felt more like an argument about the way Bush speaks, the lies, the ear piece, Rove, the way * got into office, etc. and it went on and on. He kept stressing right wing talking points and I turned every point around. He went on and on about Bush's military experience and that Bush knew how to fly a plane. I freaked out on that part of the argument and I said that he was in the champagne unit in TX and that * was AWOL. He stuck to his points and I stuck to mine. Our debate was the oddest thing that has ever happened to me in my life.

If it weren't for DU I would have been lost for words but I stood my ground and I got my points in and several of the other students that didn't say who they were voting for at the beginning of the class admitted that they were Kerry supporters in the end.

The whole time the two sisters from MN and the girl from France were making comments and snickering to each other.
