Is There a Wingnut in Your Life That Drives You Insane?
Luckily it's not a family member in my case. But our neighbor is a homophobic O'Reilly dittohead. He's always talking about how great FOX "News" is and how CNN is packed with liberals.

CNN is liberal? Uh yeah, that sounds about right.

This man is a very successful lawyer. How can you have the intellectual capacity to become a lawyer and not see that BushCo and its mass media allies are a total fraud?

Stubborn partisan blindness will never cease to amaze me.

1. Because all he cares about is tax cuts.


A lot of rich old lawyers fall under the Archie Bunker spell, and live by the motto "greed is good" which leaves them susceptible to O'Reilly garbage.

4. Would you believe my husband?
He listens to Rush/Boortz/Pat White, checks out Drudge, etc. Makes me absolutely insane. Sometimes I want to throttle him when he refuses to acknowledge the reality of the * empire. It can be very frustrating.

6. My brother....
I get reports from one of my other brothers all the time about what his latest statement is. I avoid any discussions of politics with him myself. It drives me nuts to think a member of my own family could be so delusional.

They are more of the religious side of the right but no matter how many lies and schemes are exposed about the right they keep on with their brainwashed right wing droning.
