I tend to avoid Progressives in general. Family members that are Progressive Democrats don’t see me very much - I try to avoid contact. I don’t hid my Tea Party support and involvement.

My 77 year-old father is a staunch, liberal union Dem, and his opinions, in his mind, are facts. It’s gotten far worse with age and add to that his wife who is every bit as petty as he is.
I haven’t seen my father in a year but will drive down on the 25th on my way to a party to welcome home a Marine.
There hasn’t been a day gone by in which I haven’t played out what my visit will entail, from a constant stream of MSNBC (especially Ed Schultz), petty swipes at my conservatism, and last of all, how Reagan ruined this country.
What Dad doesn’t know is that I’ve reached my breaking point. My anxiety level is through the roof! If the man were not my father, I would not visit, period. That is how bad it is. My plan of action is to arrive late in the day, maybe early evening and leave his home if I feel attacked.
