Fatherly love

Allegedly Ted Gambordella (famous American martial artist) is a major Republican supporter. So much so that his son, Teddy states:

"My father is quite possibly the biggest republican/Bush supporter I have yet to meet. He listens to Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity six hours a day, and has made me listen to it whenever possible since the day I was born."

It would come as no surprise then that the father didn't quite fancy the idea of his son voting for the Democrats. In fact he disapproved so much that he refused to pay for Teddy's college education unless he changed his mind (!).

His son refuses, and has started a web site www.onemillionreasonswhy.com to pay for his education without the "loving" father's help. The name of the site reflects on the 'one million reason' Gambordella junior hates President Bush.

Could someone who knows this stubborn, old man possibly remind him about one of the corner stones of martial arts - this thing called respect? I am positive he has heard about it...
Or maybe he's one of these people who believe that respect should be a one-way street where all the traffic is heading in their direction?
