22. WOW!
Thanks to the many replies! I did not expect this many in this short of time. My wife and I were just discussing our opinions towards Obama for one and she says he is sneaky and she does not trust him. Brought up the flag being painted over on his plane incident which I debunked for her right away. She had only read part of the article at Snopes, I had control of the computer and should her the rest. Her response "I still dont like him he is sneaky". I did well huh?!

To those that think I may be a weak man: I stopped watching those shows because our son was a guard at Gitmo and I suspect she told him some things and I of course was tuned in to Maddow and Keith hard at the time Gitmo and Obama was the hot topic. She does not think Gitmo should be closed or the prisoners should be imprisoned on our shores. We got into a minor disagreement one night and she made the comment "it breaks my heart that you sit there and watch that and my son was a guard there". I did not say anything to her but out of respect, stopped watching the shows when she is around. By the way, my son feels the same way. He does not think the "terrorists" should be locked up on our shores.

I like the idea someone here mentioned that we should watck Beck and Maddow. I can tell you this, she does not care for Rachael as she thinks shes condescending. She does however seem to like Keith so we might be able to do that. I do hope Beck goes off on a tirade when we do watch it so she can see just how loony he is. The wife did mention tonight that she is in favor of the public option so there is hope. I also must mention she is registered independent so I made a mistake with the Republican thing.

Not sure how my marriage is going to go. We have a 9 year old girl and my wife is going to college to become a teacher. I told her I will wait this out until she completes college and go from there. I cannot leave her and my daughter right now because that would put me in a world of crap and I do not need that. Anyway, thanks for the welcomes and I did not mean to throw all this garbage out here!
