Shouting is a sure fire way to NOT get one's point across. I remember a few of those "discussions" between the adults when I was a kid. Nothing like grown adults storming out of the house!

These suggestions seem plausible until you meet my sister, who will start with "you KNOW Obama's a socialist". When asked why she thinks so, it's 'obamacare' (from someone who's been on state medicare since we can remember). As usual, it turns out she only knows this from the limburger man (who she knows nothing about). It's always the same. Only the feeble-minded can not see the contradiction in what their leader (the snarky, hideous limburger) tells them and what they claim to believe as Christians. All I've learned is how to prevent her from getting hysterical/bizarre when her arguments start looking shabby. But it's futile.
