My father, who used to be a reasonable, Rockefeller Republican, is an American-born Middle Easterner who bears a STRIKING resemblance to Saddam Hussein. You'd think that maybe he'd have even remote sympathy for those who look like him...
HAH!
He's become a Republican wingnut, who spouts utter nonsense, racist crap, and anti-Hillary tirades.
He just arrived for the Christmas holidays, and the other day, he actually called me a "MOSLEM LOVER" for suggesting that the Iraqis may not be thrilled with their current lot in life at the hands of King George the Conqueror.
When I told him that I was far more afraid of Bush, Rove, Rumsfeld and Cheney and that I was far more likely to suffer due to their insanity than that of Osama Bin Laden, you'd have thought I was advocating turning the White House over to AlQaeda...
The only saving grace...he's here all week and has to drive around with me in my car, which has the Visualize Impeachment Bumper sticker, along with a bunch of other Anti-Bush sentiments!! Take that, DAD!!
