  1. I have the opposite problem, my mother plans to vote for mcCain! even though she voted for Bush and has had to listen to my I told You's for the last few years. I feel Obama is more ethical than McCain and the country always does better for the most people with a democratic president. Maybe you should listen to your sister-in-law.


  2. You can talk to her, but it's ultimately her vote.  Don't be pushy...especially when it comes to family and friends that disagree with your views, politics and religion are touchy topics.

    She's going to vote her way, you can't force that.  The best you can do is tell her what McCain is all about, and why you think it is the best for our country.  Just try not to be preachy, offensive, or bash Obama...if he's her candidate and you're bashing him, you're bashing her in a way.

  3. Leave her alone she has the right to vote for who ever she wants to.  Who the h**l do you think you are?  

  4. Well she's obviously not very bright.  Get up early in the morning and go vote.  Then take her shopping all day about 100 miles from home and don't take her home until the polls close.

  5. What do you mean she is making a mistake? She has a right to vote for whoever she wants. Who are you? Saddam Hussein? Thats why there are choices. What makes you think YOU'RE the one not making the mistake? Let her be and respect her decision.

  6. She has a disease called liberalism, there is little that can be done for her. Sadly its terminal, since liberalism runs hand in hand with self destructive lifestyles. Who knows, she might not even last to election day before the c**p thats being fed into her brain by Air America backs up inside of her and explodes.  

  7. have her over tonight and and watch the GOP with her and try to explain things to her she might not understand.  Don't give up!

  8. You can try to convince her why she should not choose Obama, but she has her own right to vote.

    I know Obama isn't your ideal choice for president, but, everyone has their own voice, and can vote whoever they like. Everyone is their own person.

    Best of luck!

  9. barack and roll baby.

    hes gonna win

    your sister in law has made the right choice.

    she isn't making the mistake, you are.

  10. Nothing.  She is entitled to her opinion.  Leave her alone.  

  11. Print this out for her to read, then let her decide for herself.

       CAPITAL GAINS TAX  

      

         MCCAIN



    0% on home sales up to $500,000 per home (couples). McCain does not propose any change in existing home sales income tax.





      

         OBAMA



    28% on profit from ALL home sales.  (How does this affect you? If you sell your home and make a profit, you will pay 28% of your gain in taxes. If you are heading toward retirement and would like to down-size your home or move into a retirement community, 28% of the money you make from your home will go to taxes. This proposal will adversely affect the elderly who are counting on the income from their homes as part of their

    retirement income .)





      

       DIVIDEND TAX  

      

         MCCAIN



        15% (no change)





      

         OBAMA



    39.6% - (How will this affect you? If you have any money invested in stock market, IRA, mutual funds, college funds, life insurance, retirement accounts, or anything that pays or reinvests dividends, you will now be paying nearly 40% of the money earned on taxes if Obama becomes president. The experts predict that 'Higher tax rates on dividends and capital gains would crash the stock market, yet do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit.')





      

      INCOME TAX    

         MCCAIN

    (no changes)



    Single making 30K - tax $4,500

    Single making 50K - tax $12,500

    Single making 75K - tax $18,750

    Married making 60K- tax $9,000

    Married making 75K - tax $18,750

    Married making 125K - tax $31,250





      

         OBAMA (reversion to pre-Bush tax cuts)



    Single making 30K - tax $8,400

    Single making 50K - tax $14,000

    Single making 75K - tax $23,250

    Married making 60K - tax $16,800

    Married making 75K - tax $21,000

    Married making 125K - tax $38,750

    Under Obama, your taxes could almost double!





      

      INHERITANCE TAX    

         MCCAIN

    - 0% (No change, Bush repealed this tax)





       OBAMA

    Restore the inheritance tax



    Many families have lost businesses, farms, ranches, and homes that have been in their families for generations because they could not afford the inheritance tax. Those willing their assets to loved ones will only lose them to these taxes.





      NEW TAXES PROPOSED BY OBAMA    

         New government taxes proposed on homes that are more than 2400 square feet.  New gasoline taxes (as if gas weren't high enough already) New taxes on natural resources consumption (heating gas, water, electricity)  New taxes on retirement accounts, and last but not least....New taxes to pay for socialized medicine so we can receive the same level of

    medical care as other third-world countries!!!

  12. I'm sorry, I thought you had secret ballots in America. If I'm right and they do, how do you know who she votes for. You only know what she tells you. Her vote is none of your d**n' business.

  13.    Tell her that he has extreme muslim ties. He wrote about this in his book. He said, "..if times get tougher in our world, I will side with my muslim brothers>" He claims to be a christian, he's a liar. He went to a terrorist training middle school! We never hear about that on tv or in the news. That is simply because the media covers for him. They are just as sick. If she doesn't understand the severity of this, she derserves the outcome.

  14. How about letting her make her own decision.  This is the United States of America.  You can give her your opinion and literature, beyond that it is none of your business who she votes for.

  15. First, she is making the right choice....OBAMA IS OUR MAN....

    next, do you pay your sister in-law's bills?

    If you don't - quit being like the Bush/McCain duet making others do what you want and what is right.


  16. Nothing. She gets her vote just like you do. My bf wants to vote Obama and I have to let him. We can have some spirited debates and try to convince eachother but if she doesnt agree theres nothing you can do.

  17. Do me a favor.  Thank her for being on the right side of history.  Tell her that America needs her to vote.  It is important and we ask you to open your mind and listen to what your sister in law has to say.  You may reconsider your position.

  18. Respect her for having a ind of her own, and let her pick whoever she wants. She could vote for Clinton. Heck, some of her delegates still are.

  19. "Stupid is as stupid does"

                                         -Forest Gump

    She has drank the cool-aid. Let her go. Just walk away and let her go.

    If she has any sense to her, within the coming days her eyes will be opened to the amount of danger an Obama presidency would bring to this country.

    Just remember, in the end...

    "You can't fix stupid"

                                          -Ron White

  20. she should vote for who ever she wants. obama rules mccain sux. i think she knows a little more then you think .  you can't make her vote for who you want.  besides if you think im voting for mccain your nuts so does that mean youll make me vote for who you want.  I DONT THINK SO"""""""""""""""""""

    GO Obama

  21. Reminder that Obama is a known friend of an unrepentant terrorist against the United States, William Ayres of The Weather Underground.

  22. Why can't you just respect her view and whoever she wants to vote for.

    Have you ever thought about her trying to change your crazy view about voting for McCain, She can't be bothered to change your view despite knowing that your are making a mistake. So leave her alone to decided who she wants to be with or go with.

  23. you should respect her for having a mind of her own and voting for who she sees fit.  stop trying to persuade her to come to your side.  did you ever stop to think that maybe in her mind, voting obama is the right choice?

  24. You can first learn how to write a complete and coherent sentence. This is proof that we need to focus more on education here in this country.

    Secondly, we do live in the USA where we are entitled to our own opinion.  This is the typical Republican response to try and "convert' others to their belief.  This is not a crusade my dear, this is an election where we pick who we think is best. You think McCain is better, while she thinks Obama is better. No one is wrong and no one is right.  Just leave her alone.

  25. Well...if you really believe that, it shouldn't be hard to defend your candidate.  Do you know anything about him other than his "better value?"

  26. I think everyone is allowed to have their own opinions and vote for whoever they personally believe will do a better job.  That's why this is America.  Although I personally do not agree with Obama and find many things wrong with him as a Presidential candidate, I am sure there are people who are thinking the same about McCain.  You shouldn't try and sway her vote, as you wouldn't want her to lecture you on her beliefs.  Politics is a private matter that many people feel uncomfortable discussing because they feel people will attempt to "push" their feelings on to them.

  27. she can make her choice.

    all you can do is give her the facts and your opinion.

  28. come on don't be silly.  your sister in law has made a better choice.  do you really want to be like all those voters that have to live with the fact they elected george bush?

  29. i would talk to her

    maybe she can help YOU change opinion

    and vote Obama :)

    or

    leave her alone

    it's a free country

    and everyone should vote for who THEY value most


  30. Tell her the truth about her guy's ties to terrorists, his anti-American upbringing, his blacks only racist "G-D America" church, his socialist ideas that will ruin the nation. And take away her Kool-aid before she suffers brain damage.

  31. your your sister is law is doing a good thing actually...
