I'm proud of my wife
The leaf is turning?

The other day, when I went to pick up my wife at work, she got into the car when I happened to be listening to Sean Hannity.
Now, my wife is not very politically-oriented; her ideas come from snatches of information she gets from wherever they happen to fall into her ears, and from her friend "Becky". Becky hates GWB with a passion, and everything she tells my wife is skewed from that angle. As a result, my wife hates him, too, and never has anything good to say about him. I have had to contend with Becky's venom in trying to explain things to my wife, and since I'm just the husband she loves, my word is of course suspect and near-meaningless next to Becky's.
To her credit, she sat quietly and listened to Hannity on the way home, Michael Savage later on that evening and, upon awakening the next morning, "Quinn and Rose in the Morning", which she decided to continue listening to on the way to work. I opined that perhaps she could take a radio with her, and tune into Rush Limbaugh in the afternoon. She promnised to think about it.
Her attitudes seem to be changing; as a caller to the Limbaugh show said not too long ago, "Before I started listening to you, I used to think I was a liberal. Now I realize I was just uninformed."
Conservative talk radio has that effect. I can attest to it.
