So is her husband. I love them both like brother and sister. We're close enough to discuss politics, get in heated debates, and still kiss each other good-bye.

Our friendship goes beyond politics. Besides, I've brainwashed 4 of her 6 kids. She keeps telling me to quit turning her kids into little hippies.
