7. Ya, my sister and her husband
are devout Bush supporters.

Here is a story.
My family and I were spending a week at my folks house this summer. My sister and her son were there as well. The timing of our trip was when Bush announced Roberts for SCOTUS. Anyway, I came downstairs and my mom had Bush on TV. My sister was there watching and I made the comment "Do we have to watch this idiot?"
My mom smiled and said "No", and she turned it. Both my parents voted for Bush and have since admitted to me that they made a mistake. I am very proud of my parents.
However, my sister said she would vote for Bush again, his wife if she ran, his mom (OMFG).
I said, "Would you vote for Bubba Jr.(Jeb) too?" My parents fell over laughing, my sister left the room.
Anyway, my wife said to let it go. She does not want me to dissolve family relationships over politics.
But I love to egg my sister on.
