You know, I love how the majority of people can't be arsed to read the news or keep up on the political process, but will believe any two-bit "outrageous" email that gets sent to them.

--Yeah, one of my coworkers just fwd'd an "Obama hates the troops!" email to me. I immediately sent her and all her recipients to snopes. God, I hate willful

In addition, your co-worker shouldn't be sending her political views to her fellow employees. We'd get in serious trouble if we did that here.

No kidding. I doubt I'll receive any more, but if I do, I may bring this up with my boss.

Good for you! If nothing else, it may convince her to take you off her mailing list.

Fortunately, not long ago I got a nice email thanking me for the info and that she'd pass it on to her dad, who sent it to her in the first place. Yay for anti-stupidity!

Politicians are a shady bunch, and there are more than enough entirely factual reasons to dislike each and every one of them (in all parties) to resort to lies. :)

If someone did that to me, I'd raise a stink with HR. Oooh, I really dislike forwarders... >:/
