My rabidly catholic BIL and SIL vote straight line Democrat. When I asked how this was reconciled with their anti abortion stance, the response was that Republicans don't do enough to overturn abortion laws. How do I have a rational conversation with someone like that? We don't even talk politics because he and his wife go full-blown emotional every time. There is no rational discourse with people like that.

Allow me to quote Bubba :
“I feel your pain.”
I have a sister, (who I love dearly) who has ALWAYS voted straight line Dem. I have not discussed politics with her since the Harmonica Lewinsky scandal, I learned long ago you can’t have a reasonable discourse with those people.
I have often wondered how a person of nearly the same age, from the same era, in the same neighborhood who attended the same school, born of the same parents could possibly see the world through a leftists prism.
I don’t ecpect to ever find an answer to this riddle...
