Another Republican Vote is Lost
Hooray and let us all give praise! My right wing brother has seen the light!
He is still right wing, but is planning on voting Democrat in the next election. Right now he has his eyes on Lieberman, which is just fine with me. Personally I lean towards Dean, but have not made a real decision yet. I dont care who he votes for, at least he has turned against Bush.
This has me celebrating and sending emails to all my left wing family members who have been so concerned about his mental state.
Hehehe, another one bites the dust.

2. You got that right.
I am so proud of him and love him so much (he's my baby brother). I would never do that. Your advice is well taken.

4. What did it for him?
Was there a singular dubious Dubya deed that won him over, or was it just an accumulation of stuff?

6. Rucky, I am not sure yet,
just what has made him change his mind. I have been putting a lot of pressure on him to Read and Find out for himself, and not be a parrot of this admin. I believe the lies have a lot to do with it, because he is an honest soul and after Clinton bashing, he has to take the Bush lies seriously. There may be other things, I will try to find out, slowly of course. Dont want to alienate him now. He agrees that we went to war under false premises, but still feels we did the right thing. I am working on that one.

7. Good job!!!
My Mepublican brother is a lost cause. He makes too much money and has a Texas fetish. But I really pissed him off to the point where he could only come back, via e-mail, with "Liar!" His wife, who says too much too often (much to my brother's chagrin), told me that he said Iraq is either going to be the best or worst thing to happen. He'd NEVER say that to my face.
