[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shaking my head, as I get off the phone with my mom.  She spouts ridiculous things she learns from FOX.  She keeps it on all day, has it has her landing page on her computer, and buys books from all the pundits.  In my opinion, she has literally lost her mind to them.

[b]She is a Republican. [/b] Cool by that.  But can't she at least be a smart one?  Be a consumer of media sources beyond FOX?  Read a fucking article that might offer another viewpoint?

No, she is completely brain washed.  Won't consider anything that counters what she hears, and if I offer another viewpoint, I am dismissed as a crazy liberal advocating nonsense from my "Ivory Tower."

I went to a state school, William and Mary.

I need to find a way to navigate conversations with her, as she turns everything into something political, and the politics are just wrong.  (Education taking center stage right now.  My mother doesn't have a clue, but considers herself an expert on how we are screwing up our children.)

Deep breaths and changing the conversation aren't cutting it.  [/quote]

on the upside she and her demographic will be dead soon enough.

republicans marching to the graveyard - literally  :lol: [/quote]
