I've been there and have ignored it. The only time I didn't is when this relative started saying our troops were killing Iraqis indiscriminately. This was last Easter and I was not about to sit there and ignore this outrageous lie and I said that was absolute nonsense. After over a year of not being challenged the lib relative was shocked out of his wits and actually got up and left the table speechless at being called on his assertions.

Haven't seen him since.

"LIBERAL AT MY DINNER TABLE"

I know you're always saying it's hard to get a date, but this time you've really set your standards low!

[LisaMalia]

Conversion IS possible. My son-in-law was a died in the wool Democrat until my daughter deprogrammed him. Now he is one of President Bush's staunchest supporters.

[ScottFromSpokane]

I'd suggest saying something like, "Do you feel the need to ruin every occasion by pushing your politics, or do you save it up for when you come to my house?"

That's assuming that he or she actually did that, of course (surely you wouldn't be this upset over a mere casual remark), and that he or she actually started it.

Smile, pat her hand gently and say, "It's so nice they let you out for the day."

May I suggest you serve only grape Kool-Aid for the evening. If they can't get that message, no verbal sparring would work.

Stay cool, note all of their opinions for future teardown and plan a little gathering of your conservative friends where this liberal is "the guest of honor". See the movie "The Last Supper" where liberals do the same to noted conservatives (just don't do what they did). Far better to leave a living, quivering husk of a former liberal as an example for everyone to learn from.

And Merry Christmas!

Ah -mmm

It's YOUR house, right? Get back out there and enjoy YOUR HOUSE and YOUR Christmas!

It's YOUR house - repeat after me "It's MY house, My rules or the highway and I say, No politics, no knocking anything I believe in. That's "Courtesy 101" - (When in someone else's house, you do not say anything rude or upsetting to the host/hostess. (And you not a "hostperson".

Now stand your ground. If the lib doesn't want to be polite, "politely" ask them to leave. If that doesn't work, ORDER Them to leave...and for heavens sake, don't let them darken your door again.

Merry Christmas!

ZOT her.

It helps to have some viking kittens in the house when you do it. Do you have cats?

[jrfaug06]

Ask her about the 400k hillary's brother got in legal fees handling the marc rich pardon.

[Voice in your head]

Don't discuss politics.

[jigsaw]

Have someone phone you, respond in a loud voice, "No, Craig Livingston doesn't live here anymore," hang up, say to the sycophant, "I wish I'd never hired that guy!" and then immediately change the subject.

[rodguy911]

Here is how to get along with a liberal.
Most of the time they will do all of the talking so whenever they shut up just tell them the following;

1.I am voting for Hillary in 08
2.Michael Moore will surely win an Oscar.
3. I feel your pain.
4. Don't you just love Barbara Streisand?

And if that doesn't work just remind them of what President Clint Eastwood said in one of his most famous speeches;

"Are you feeling lucky today sucker? Why don't you just make my day!"

[Petronski]

Oooh, oooh. I got another good one.


If you're serving green-bean salad, ladle out generous portions, and after half their portion is gone, ask them if they know that botulism is often caused by poorly-processed green beans.

Hey Jay!

Your expertise in this matter is needed. Cyborg needs help, lol!

Ok, your going to need a young priest and an old priest, and lots of holy water...

[TChris]

For heaven's sake, she's in your house! You have the right to set the record straight in your own house.

[carlr]

Shrug your shoulders and say "whatever".Remember a cat cares little what a rat thinks of it.
