Old people can be stupid, selfish and racist. And they have all that spare time...

or maybe they can't figure out how to change the channel

My 72 YO father was telling me how Muslim (That Arab religion to be specific) gangs were ruling large parts of European countries and the EU was just ceding the territory to them. White women who enter them are never seen again.

Although always a stubborn asshole my father was always a reasonable person, not sure what happened.

So what's your excuse then?

True story...

Ask him about socialized medicine

Then put him in that crooked home you saw on 60 Minutes.

My Mom asked me if I watched Glenn Beck the other day. Then she says "oh, I love his show, he actually tells it like it is!"

My Dad is 62 or 63, or something, and Fox News is the only "news" he'll watch. Has a Glenn Beck book proudly displayed on the coffee table too. He's an evangelical, racist, homophobic teabagger.

I don't visit very often.

(According to my parents) Fox News tickers at the bottom of the screen are bigger than those on other channels, so it's easier for older people to read. No clue if it's true or not.

Have also gotten into arguments with my parents about things that are factually untrue, ie stupid chain letters. Somehow they have time to read chain letters, get extremely upset over them, and stew about them for days, but they don't have the time to go to www.politifact.com or www.factcheck.org. I finally told them that if they don't have time to actually check whether something is true or not, don't bother reading about it or listening to fox news (or any political station in general).......

Hell man, these guys grew up with cronkite and murrow.

The idea that an entire network could be, by design absolutely full of shlt is probably an odd concept. Then again, after watching faux newz, ask them how they feel about msnbc or cnn. I may be totally wrong actually

I would swear I dated his daughter

An old girlfriend's dad used to have Glenn Beck and friends on super loud in the garage 24/7. Wow, what a nutcase.

i want a mobile cone of silence.

They are all afraid because everything that they know is changing and Fox just feeds into that fear. But I'm preaching to the choir here.

My sister and her husband were "born again" recently and are definitely Fox-news supporters as well.

The funny thing is my Dad...one of the most conservative people I know (or so I thought) is not really a fan of the Right. My Mom, who was a hippie flower child and very "open minded" is now leaning to the Right more and more as she gets older.

I tend to not discuss religion or politics with my family.

That would rule

Of course she is.

This is why I'm in favor of abolishing social security. Let these old fvcks (who have the money) play with the insurance "market" like the rest of us.
