32. The regime's Divide and Conquer strategy
Edited on Thu Jul-22-04 10:57 AM by LordActon
I've had some heated debates lately w/ my brother who's been hypnotized by Limbaugh and has turned into a rabid liberal hater. We still talk but I avoid discussing politics at all cost. My parents-inlaw are right-wing repugs as well. They bought a house in Florida recently and are so excited that they can vote there now. I swear they did it just for that reason. They try to engage my wife and I in discussion about how great Bush is but usualy we just nod and smile politely and change the topic at the soonest convenience. There's no use arguing with them, they are thoroughly brainwashed and view anyone who doesn't agree with Bush as a traitor. I typically keep my political beliefs very quiet. You never know when your friends, neighbors, employer or family will turn your name into Ashcroft as an enemy combatant.
