Every family's gotta have one. Ours is my cousin-in-law's brother...a Sabra (native born Israeli) who I've known for over 35 years. Eddie came here in the early 80s...has lived off hand-outs from the family, but sure loves to think he's a "REAL" American.
For the past couple years, it's been my pleasure to bitch slap him around with his right wing talking points...to the amusement of my other family members who look at him as being as much a loser as I do.
Last time I saw him...in April, he had the guts to tell me he listened to Savage and how he spoke "the truth". I looked at him and asked "do you know his real name?" Eddie looked at me and said "It's Michael Savage...". I said, "no it isn't...it's Michael Weiner", Eddie, always sure (just like the fool he is) kept arguing with me that he wasn't lying about his real name. Finally another cousin, who works (or worked...she lost her job) in radio not only confirmed what I said but joined in as we said what a sexist and racist tool of the right wing. Eddie then decided he needed to go outside for a smoke.
The ignorance of these listeners would be amusing if they would just stay home and not vote.
