Thanks for letting me vent you guys.

We have a strange situation...both sides of our family hate Obama, and most will vocalize that there's something wrong with the government, and my MIL respects our opinions about politics.....But when I get paranoid about getting pulled over when I see signs for a drug checkpoint, I get "Most cops aren't like that" from my SIL when I tell her about the woman who got thrown in jail for buying Sudafed across county lines. Also, when we voice opinions about subjects such as medicine or raw milk, we're written off as off our rockers! My husband gets accused of being too much like his grandpa, and his mother (my MIL) won't open up to learn about WHY....Perhaps because my SIL is a nurse and she'd feel as if she's betraying her daughter

? But Mamboni is a doctor and one of us. IT'S NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE, PEOPLE!

It's hard for me when my MIL gets seemingly offended by our views and tries to convince ME that her son is off his rocker and just being stubborn like his grandpa!!
