Today I was at a family reunion, and two elders of the clan began a short argument on politics.
It was short because both cantankerous old men knew that they couldn't convince the other, and conservative old man changed the subject.
Conservative old man asked liberal old man what Obama had accomplished, and liberal old man replied "He's done so much for women's rights, equal pay for equal work."
Words failed me. True believers still exist, and you can't reason with them, you can only kill them.

My family'e reunion is next week end and I told the Honey I'm considering not going due to the overwhelming number of dimocraps who'll be there. (About 90% of the family.) There are only two ways to keep peace in the group: don't show up or keep your mouth shut, and I'm terrible at the latter.
