I just ask my brother if his health care premiums have gone up. He becomes strangely quiet.

Forget it. Liberals are already being fed with lines like “It would have been better had it not been for the obstructionist Republicans”, or “It’s all the greedy insurance companies’ fault”, or “All the plans being cancelled are junk plans”, etc.

Don’t sound too smug yourself. The GOP having a polling advantage is like having a 24-0 halftime lead on Tom Brady. Somehow, you know the other team will still screw it up.

Not a problem with my family. At all. In fact, if you want to hear my 76 year old mother say the F-word and go on a tirade, just say “Obama”

Great, although a little kinder and gentler than they deserve.

In my experience, I would do my best to avoid subjects that could get heated and I’d be pleasant as I could without being fake. On this subject, you hold all the aces so just be gracious. Reality is just about to bite the idiots on the butt so let that be their chastisement.

Maybe if you’re gracious they’ll give your opinion a little more respect in the future? If not, don’t waste any more effort trying to help them in the future because they’re likely unreachable. Stick to superficial topics when you’re around them. Ultimately these people are pitiable.

I prefer to let them stew in their own juices.

How to shut up a liberal family member....

After they tell you how mean spirited and greedy you are for not thinking about the people with no health insurance....

Offer to match any cash contribution they make to the local food bank....

Liberals don’t spend their own money....

That will be the end of any discussion...
