Stop trying to change their minds. Some people just don't accept anything you say. Think about it, from their perspective I mean. The people who voted for Romney voted for a man who:
-Refused to show his tax returns, and those he did showed 14%
-Changed his view on every issue 2-7 times, sometimes within the same day
-Developed Obamacare
-Passed assault gun ban as Gov.
-Had tax shelters all over the world
-Outsourced jobs all over the world
-Owned companies that produced in China
-etc.
-etc.
Now, every white guy I know that voted for this kind of candidate either watches Fox or listens to A.M. radio. Or both. If they're really into it, Drudge, Free Republic, et al. They are completely isolated in a positive feedback loop. They are constantly being told, beyond the wackiness, that the media is lying to them. Everything is a conspiracy. If the media picks up on a story and it goes nowhere, "They killed it to protect the Kenyan!" If they don't pick up on a story, "They killed it to protect the Kenyan!" There is no reasoning with these people. When you see any sign of right-wing nuttery, block the feed. Save yourself the time and effort. You have to look at them as, you know, your average guy or gal. Who just happens to be a scientologist.
A family member recently told me that Obama is draining the great lakes and selling the water to other countries. Seriously. Glen Beck said. Oh, andshe got some emails! Now if she starts up you just nod your head and go uh-huh for 5 or 10 minutes and the conversation will change. Unless it's a sibling. You can tell your brother to shut the fuck up. I would probably be more diplomatic about it......can't wait for thanksgiving.
Anyway, the point is there is a percentage of people you just ain't gonna convince. Educate. Open their fucking eyes. Whatever.
Stop giving yourself a headache. Enjoy yourself man, or sweetheart, whichever you may be. Life is short. Stop talking to walls.
Just sayin
