My mother in law is an avid fox watcher and is just certain that ebola is going to wipe us all out.

With so many depressed people in this country, I think lots of them are on the edge, and Fox would be cause even a healthy person to want to eat their gun.

(38,613 posts)What I've found, at least with my family, is that if I discuss an issue with them but don't use any slogans or buzz-words, they actually take a liberal position on most issues. But if you frame it the way Fox frames it, and use their words, they suddenly think they are republicans who take the republican side. It's fascinating.
