Sorry to hear your Dad is buying into all the right-wing nonsense. My own father has gone in the opposite direction: from moderate left to an left which is now somewhere way to the left of me. It makes for some interesting discussions. But my dear old dad doesn't see the need to explode with rage when we talk. If he did go nuts at me, in front of my wife and kids, much as I love him, I wouldn't give him a free pass. I do hope you can really sit down with your Dad, so you can ask him why he lets Limbaugh and O'Reilly into his head. Theres nothing wrong with getting a bit more conservative as you get older, hell, its happening to me now, and I'm only 34! Byt Limbaugh and O'Reilly are conservatives: They're haters, liars, bullshitters and hypocrites. If your Dad needs conservatism, tell him to go talk to John McCain.
