My MIL insists that Barack is a Republican;

[mwdem]

She doesn't say why, but we will all be fooled soon. Have any of you heard of this?

[Catch22Dem]

1. How do I put this tactifully? Your MIL is a fucking dumbass. (n/t)

[mwdem]

4. Yeah, I know that, but she thinks she has some"inside" info.

I told her I can't find anything, anywhere, to support her.

[Catch22Dem]

6. Tell her to pony up then

Would she be in a position to have info like that? Has he been playing some elaborate game for his entire political career?

[mwdem]

10. I know, she's in her late 70's, and totally for Hillary..

I was on the fence about both. At least she (a reformed Catholic) is progressive. But this hatred of Obama has me worried. She is living in Portland, Oregon, and she is old, and she does complain about "the Mexicans" there a lot, but she's not prejudiced, okay? Why do I bother to talk to her...

[greguganus]

13. Tell her she's senile and she won't live long enough to see the damage Clinton will do. n/t

Get back with us after this. }(

[mwdem]

15. I've practically said that...

I did diss the state of Oregon for being, for the most part, closed-minded. I give up on trying to be the voice of reason.

2. Well he did say Reagan had great policies

[NYCGirl]

3. No he never said that, but don't let that stop you. Where's a link? NT

[opiate69]

5. No, he didn't, Liar.

"Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not, and a way that Bill Clinton did not,"

[OzarkDem]

23. No, statement of fact

[Shakespeare]

25. No, it's a racist remark. n/t

[roamer65]

8. Go check his Senate voting record.

You will find it to be very liberal.

[newmajority]

9. Have you told her about the DLC

...and who one of their leaders is?

[ScarletSniper]

11. How much crack did she smoke before she said that..lmao

[JoFerret]

12. Yes

It is a well held theory among some progressives.

[TBF]

14. It's FOX news - the elderly watch it 24/7 and learn all kinds of

interesting things.

[mwdem]

18. She doesn't believe in Fox News..

She's totally for Hillary, which is fine by me. I just think Obama would be the best choice.

[rucky]

16. And Santa is really Satan

[Liberal Veteran]

19. I have it on the best authority of my aunt that Obama is a "Muslin".

And yes, she said "Muslin".

[mwdem]

22. The thing is, she's very left wing. But she's also bigoted, but won't admit it.

Now that she's with "certain sides" of her family in Oregon, she's taken on this weird, left wing, yet racist attitude, with a dose of Christianity thrown in. I don't talk to her much, to say the least.

[Divine Discontent]

20. he's everything but a Democratic with liberal views

according to people who are scared of change. Tell your MIL about my best friend's mom who insists that he's a Muslim! Tell them they cancel each other out - and he is what he says he is - embrace the hope we have in Obama!

[mwdem]

21. They are only concerned about health care.

I don't blame them a bit, but I hava a future grandchild, and I think a total change, if it can happen, will be the best thing this earth can have.

[Dorian Gray]

24. My MIL insists that he's Muslim

It seems that we both have extraordinarily ignorant Mothers-In-Law.
