Some people are so entrenched in leftist propaganda, it drives them to an emotional meltdown.
I lol’ed this one for a good minute and a half after reading
How can I love my parents when they are supporters of the most corrupt, willfully ignorant, deceitful, lying administration in our nation’s history?
If we were not related by blood, I would have nothing to do with these people. The Bush presidency has ruined our reputation in the world, destroyed many of our civil liberties and increased the divide between the rich and the poor. Plus they think torture is just dandy!I don’t have any Republican friends. I don’t like to talk to Republicans mostly….When I visit my parents, politics is generally off the table for discussion. Occasionally it will come up with tense, sometimes angry results. They have no idea of my political thoughts and don’t want to hear them. On the whole my relationship with them is better than many I’ve seen. We’re not estranged, they didn’t abuse me, but I don’t really like them. I simply shut up and endure the visit.
I live on the East Coast, they live in the Southwest. I know I should love them. They supported me, helped me through college and such. But we have nothing in common and I dread seeing them. They embarrass me sometimes. Why should I spend time with people I don’t like and resent for helping to lead my country in the wrong direction?
