Hi Coragyps, I am in the same boat just North of Austin near Temple,Belton, Killeen. There are moderates but we are labled by dyed in the wool republicans as socialist commies.
Civil discourse is impossible. I just do not bring up politics unless it is in like company. I made the mistake yesterday when in the bar a person was complaining about President Obama.
I said would she like things to go back to the way things were at the end of the Bush administration? She said yes. I pointed out the economy seems to be getting better, the
stock market on the upswing, the housing market improving, car industry making profits, etc.. She looked at me like I was growing horns.
