Dear Abby

[jswordy]

DEAR ABBY,
My husband has a long record of money problems. He
runs up huge credit card bills and at the end of the
month, if I try to pay them off, he shouts at me,
saying I am stealing his money. He says pay the
minimum and let our kids worry about the rest, but
already we can hardly keep up with the interest.
Also he has been so arrogant and abusive toward our
neighbors that most of them no longer speak to us.
The few that do are an odd bunch, to whom he has
been giving a lot of expensive gifts, running up our
bills even more. Also, he has gotten religious in a
big way, although I don't quite understand it. One
week he hangs out with Catholics and the next with
people who say the Pope is the Anti-Christ. And now
he has been going to the gym an awful lot and is
into wearing uniforms and cowboy outfits, and I hate
to think what that means. Finally, the last straw.
He's demanding that before anyone can be in the same
room with him, they must sign a loyalty oath. It's
just so horribly creepy!
Can you help?
Signed, Lost in DC

Dear Lost:
Stop whining, Laura. You can divorce the jerk any
time you want. The rest of us are stuck with the
asshole for four more years!
