My Mom turns on the O'Reilly Factor, but not because she agrees with anything he says. I think she enjoys her hour of moral outrage at the RNC talking head and we sit down with a drink and yell at the TV together. I wouldn't say my Mom was necessarily a conservative when growing up, but we didn't do peace marches or any of that. Today we sit together and talk about the death penalty and the war in the gulf and I look in wonder at my Mother who was so angry at me at one time for my "Swords into Ploughshares" bumper sticker--we are actually on the same side. How did this happen? I guess we all change as we get older.
