Are you able to let people know you are pissed?
I don't mean every moment of every day, but when the subject comes up, are you able to say "This isn't the liberty I grew up with" or "This is what I was taught freedom is"? I was discussing medical insurance in a clinic today and loss of privacy came up as a subject. I'm in a very conservative town, and I coudln't believe how readily people were agreeing with my comments, spoken in general, about hte govt spying on people, allowing our private medical info to be fair game per the unPatriot Act, etc.

3. You can make anyone agree with anything if you present it correctly...
If you speak in loud spurts and don't allow people to think about what you just said then you can sell a concept.

Smart people don't buy into that method of communication.

Republicans often believe the concept presented by Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, etc.

Those broadcasters convey their concepts by speaking in loud spurts and don't allow people to think about what they just said.

Those broadcasters represent Republican concepts.

The majority of their listeners agree with what they say.

The majority of their listeners are republican.

The majority of Republicans aren't smart people.

I'm just saying, communication is key.
