re: My family. The conservative faction assumes that everyone else agrees with them, and that everyone wants to talk about conservative topics.

My dad monologues endlessly on how bad the world/Obama/liberals/gays/feminists/atheists/ETC/ad infinitum/ad nauseam are. My mom respond emphatically, getting totally worked up. Because they are taking turns talking, they think we are all having a conversation. and they WILL NOT STOP. everything anyone talks about can and will be hijacked.

If you object, you will be labeled one of the liberals, and you WILL NOT BE LEFT ALONE.
