My brother was attacked by rightwingers.

Around October I told my brother about signing up for Healthcare and offered to him the use of my computer to apply. He agreed and said he would get back in touch with me so he'll let me know when he was coming over. Well he came over about holiday time and I forgot to mention it.As I recall he never mentioned it either. So I called him again about signing up for it. He went into how he needs it blah blah blah.Well it dawned on me WHY avoided signing up. He was discouraged by rightwing family members. So I had to see if my thoughts were right. He came by again. I noticed that he never wanted to talk about politics so much anymore.But he was more thinking along the teachings of rightwing. He started making no damn sense.Wanted to argue and all he seem to do is use the words socialist, Obama phones, liberal media, imperial president, and free stuff.Damn.
