My 13 y.o. is ranting about * to someone on the phone

[katinmn]

Recounting the staged photo ops, locking hurricane victims in the Superdome for six days, the refusal of FEMA to let aid in, letting people die -- all of it.

I have no idea who she's talking to but she is really letting them have it.

Good girl!

3. Good for her!

My daughter told me yesterday that she's got her best friend to the point where she doesn't want to get in the car with her mom who listens to right wingnut radio. And of all of my keepsakes, the one she's proudest of is my POW/MIA bracelet, which she wears.

It's great to have a liberal in the house!

7. We have to teach them the proper values

Compassion and doing right by everyone who shares this planet is the most important thing we can pass on to our kids.

Sounds like you've got a fine daughter yourself. :hi:

4. Mostly, I can't stand little kids

But I think I love yours!

6. Before she was born I prayed she'd be

an independent thinker and strong-willed.

Many times since then I've remembered that saying: "Be careful what you wish for."

But right now I am so grateful she is tuned in and concerned about more than clothes and TV.

8. Nice job! I hope she was talking to the WH. Next she can

call FEMA and the DHS and lay into them too.
