How smart can he be?
Whenever I read these first-person accounts about people's loved ones and their transformations from mild-mannered liberals into foaming-at-the-mouth conservatives, the writer invariably says, about the subject, "But here's the kicker: he's so smart." Really, how smart can someone be who believes all that right wing drivel? How much common sense do these people have? None. I don't care if the person in question cured cancer, if you can't wade through the bullshit of talk radio, you are dumber than a box of rocks. What happened to the old adage: Don't believe everything you hear?
And for the record, the older I get, the more liberal I get. My 75-year-old mother hates the Republicans, and when my father was alive, he hated them more and more with each passing year.
