I understand because the Fugee Dad was pretty conservative and would go off on rants about issues. But now after he's died, I'd put up with a lot of ranting just to have him back for the non-ranting times.
My suggestion is that you talk to your dad and let him know that the time you and the family have with him is so precious that you don't want to waste a minute disagreeing on political issues. Neither or you is going to change the others' minds so what is the point? If my Dad were around and had made the ACLU comment, I would have just ignored it and changed the subject as quickly as possible.
