I have a mother whose entire world view is formed by Fox "News", Beck, Limbaugh and even Savage. Not that I'm saying she'd ever turn to arson or any sort of violence, but it's so difficult to have a good, comfortable relationship with people whose minds have become addled because they are addicted to the intellectual crack that is Fox "News" and right wing radio. If the have any sort of emotional vulnerability, it is downright dangerous.
