94. what your MIL said
Edited on Mon Aug-14-06 12:42 PM by yorkiemommie1
we've been married 33 yrs and dh takes care of me, has never told me to go out and work, urges me to take vacations ( and insisted i take the entire summer off, while he's been doing contracting work at home ); takes me out whenever i don't want to cook...is just an all around really good and kind man.

is pro-choice, NOT homophobic, or racist in the least, not a religious nut ( believes in God but that's about it ) is a strong believer in evolution and science. He NEVER watches FNEWS and actually hardly watches the news at all; I think he's sick of it. He used to watch SOTU every year no matter who was in office but this year he didn't. I've seen him change channels when * comes on the screen.

But he votes GOP. As one poster upline said, there was a whole year of screaming in this house too, both before and after the election. I can't convince him * is a rat, though I know that he thinks so down deep. And yet, something is there where he buys into the GOP spin. I don't know what it is that causes it. I wish I could break thru this brick wall.



My Inlaws were totally liberal Dems and my BIL watches the Daily Show all the time. I don't know whether DH is secretly rebelling or what, but at with him at age 67 what can I do?

edited to add: our daughter never dates GOP and refuses to work for them too!
