My brothers and I were raised by the same parents, yet one of my brothers is completely opposite of me politically. We weren't raised to praise or enable bullies. We were taught to stop bullying.

My brother is the same. I don't know how he turned out the way he did. He and his family live in Texass and I only get to see them about once a year. We get along ok as long as we don't discuss politics. He is a retired Army Sgt Major and isn't dumb. I will never understand it.

I was the underachiever of the family, growing up. They brought home dazzling report cards, I brought home the turkey. We all pulled one enlistment hitch, honorably discharged. We all had clearances. Only one of us drank the fool-aid. So many similarities, with that one glaring exception.
