4. Funny. I was going to start a thread with that title
LOL. Give it em, big Eddie. Jonathan Alter is really bugging me. He's reverting back to his middle to right philosophy, so in evidence during the first chimp term.
12. I sent an email to Mary Matalin because of one of her cluless rants
about working class people not taking responsibility for their own affairs. Her argument was that she grew up in a working class family from Pittsburgh. I was gobsmacked by the response and pointed out that the life she has led for the past few decades have divorced her from a true understanding of the challenges that working people face.
She was lucky to make the right choices and have the right friends. If not for that, she'd be waiting tables on the South side or a homemaker in Cranberry Twp.
I've been on both sides of the fence and know too well that once you're on the have-more side it's too easy to forget your roots and condemn those that haven't done as well as you.
I won't condemn her or Alter for their viewpoints but I understand it's a result of their life experience. It just kicks me in the ass that they forgot what life was like when they weren't so privileged.
I never forgot that and never will. My life isn't so much about me but how I can care for those that need my help.
