Almost got kicked out of my RW mom's house for anti-bush rant

[cynatnite]

I was complaining about the crappy education my kids are getting and how much we've had to pay in so far since school started. She was on about 'well, there is so little money for the schools'. Then I said if it wasn't for that 500 billion dollar a year illegal and immoral war we could give our kids a decent education.

She hated that one...said something and I popped off that bush is a pathetic president no matter how good of a christian she thinks he is.

I told her that the only thing he hasn't done at this point is kill 6 million people (hitler reference, I know, but I couldn't stop)

It was like, I blew and couldn't stop today. I told her that it's not rich people dying in NO. It's the poor and old who COULDN'T leave. I said we live in such a great country that babies are dying because of the clusterfuck of clusterfucks is happening on bush's watch.

Before I said anymore, I went home, but I think I'll be allowed back if I want.

Frustration after frustration kept building on me today and I couldn't stop once I started.

1. Don't forget his tax cuts that exploded our deficit.

[Qibing Zero]

2. Yeah tensions are really high recently.

I'm ranting constantly, and I'm glad I only get to deal with the non-religious types of RWers. At least they can hold a discussion without breaking into completely irrelevant stuff all the time.

4. It's worse now than it was

My RW mom got all worked up about some letter in the paper complaining about SUVs and their gas guzzling ways.

I told her that it's only a car and she shouldn't take it as a personal attack...but she does. I honestly don't get that. It's a freaking car...yeah, a gas guzzling SUV is what she owns...but she won't believe it no matter what. :shrug: go figure

3. deja vu

I got into an argument w/my mom (bush supporter) today on the phone and hung up on her. I just can't tolerate it any longer!!!!

[Carni]

5. I did that right after bush was installed in 2000

I actually hung up on my own mother after asking her what the fuck was in her head.

I told her that "I was not raised this way" and hung up then we didn't speak for three weeks.

You know what?

Five years later she is probably more *liberal* than I am and she despises bush.

To coin a phrase "It's only castles burning"

11. I was actually 'raised that way'

...but I am smarter than that! My mother today was voicing racist comments today which sickened both me and my daughter! god help us.

6. Even the most insane NRA-loving gun nut

doesn't spend half his income on weapons.

But the US gov't does.

[Frances]

7. I empathize

It's really hard watching this White House occupant make so many mistakes that cost people their lives. I feel like screaming.

[LucasD]

8. Same here. I think I ranted my way out of

an inheritance, but I don't care.

[cynatnite]

9. I'm pissed enough that I'll go toe to toe with any bush defender

Bring it on, I say.

I dare anyone to defend shrub.

[BillZBubb]

10. That is exactly the attitude we progressives all need!

We've been meek far too long. Time to fight.

[OKDem08]

12. yeah, me too!

my husband and I are talking about getting our financial house in order, selling our house, and getting out of Oklahoma!

[growlypants]

13. "and I POPPED OFF..." HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

thats funny, sorry. She'll let ya back, she's your MOM

[OKDem08]

14. screw you!

these are families which are being torn apart by political differences. I am experiencing this & am totally distraught!

[growlypants]

15. ok, so the SCREW YOU remark was necessary???? WTF????

I simply pointed out that 1)her COMMENT was funny the way she phrased it and that 2) Im sure her mom will let her back in the house (as was SHE) especially since it wasnt a very big fight they had. So before you open your mouth again, F*** YOU. Jesus, some people I swear need to r.e.l.a.x

[I_Make_Mistakes]

16. well Cyan

If you get kicked out and want to come to NJ I have a spare bedroom, bath and walk in closet, it would be tight but you would have somewhere. If, I lived at home, I would've been booted already.

I live in a really good school district and NJ has really good schools. I am sincere in my offer.

[OKDem08]

17. FUCK YOU !

FUCK YOU
YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE

[Robeson]

18. Your Mom wouldn't even have the right to vote and express her opinion...

...in this "democracy", if it weren't for a Democrat - Woodrow Wilson - giving her that right. Perhaps she needs a history lesson.

[OKDem08]

19. thanks for that history lesson

my parents are complete bush worshipper and absolute dumbshits. I am all alone.
