Great advice, Chicagoan! I think you're exactly right--getting into a heated debate while you're a guest in another country (and are supposed to be enjoying yourself) seems like a silly idea. I think I would take the same strategy I do with my father (who's very pro-Bush)..."gee, Dad, I'm glad to hear what you think; now can we have lunch?"
