13. I live in Texas and I am surrounded by tea party nuts.

A real shocker is one of the most outspoken tea party guys is mad because his wife told him she is going to vote for Hillary.

Turns out she works in a huge office as some kind of manager and a few months ago she discovered she is the lowest paid manager of her group. The others are all men and the only reason she knows is when one of her friends quit she told her. All this despite consistently getting the highest performance reviews in the office. Now she is a Hillary fan.

I know I am off subject but this lady proves a point I have with the right. They only feel empathy when it hits home. The above lady was happy as a bug and living in ignorance. When her eyes were open she did a 180 turn.
