I've been fortunate to grow up in a yellow dog Democratic family so I never had this problem. For me when the talk comes to politics at the holiday dinner table, even with my chosen family up in Da Ville, we spent our time bashing the Republican Party before we moved on to other subjects.
But for those of you who dread the holiday season because you have to go back to towns chock full of relatives and people who actually believe everything Fox Noise and Rush Limbaugh tell them and relish the opportunity to mess with you as one of the few 'libruls' in the family tree, the holidays can be a frustrating experience.
You grit your teeth as your uncle rants about the latest anti-Obama conspiracy theory, or you resist the urge to rip your cousin's hair out when she starts defending the GOP War on Women, or chew out your smarmy collegiate Young Conservative nephew talking about the Affirmative Action Bake Sale they're having on his campus soon. .
Fear not fellow liberal-progressives, the Democratic Party feels your holday pain and has come to the rescue with your handy talking points called The Democrat's Guile To Talking Politics With Your Republican Uncle
You can easily reference them on your way to Conservafool Hell to rebut, crush and utterly demolish their latest conservafool talking points in addition to all the facts based info you have already committed to memory over the years. .
And yeah, you know they have already been fed their talking points by their conservanews bubble and are just gleefully waiting for you to hit town to unleash them on you, so you need to be prepared.
This holiday season you get to enjoy your Thanksgiving meal and win the political info war at the dinner table at the same time.
