9. It kills me...
We constantly try to bring new people to the political table. I finally get my sister to do something. She's a fantastic writer and her help in any way will be a blessing to our cause. She finally sees something that she wants to act on, asks for help in responding to a rediculous LTTE. It just so happens to not be my area of expertise but, hey, I know a great place to ask for help. DU! But of course instead, I get this:

"If your "sister is a freelance writer", then she already nows how
to gather data for an article. If she just wants to be a freelance writer, then one of the first things she needs to learn is how to gather data for an article."

She's just writing a simple response to a LTTE. There are many kinds of freelance writers out there.Certainly she knows how to gather information regarding Psychology, the United Way (She's a board member) and issues regarding Planned Parenthood and Habitat for Humanity. All her causes.

What you insinuated was that I either 1. lied about her being a freelance writer or 2. that she wasn't a very good one.

Why can't we all just help each other out instead of questioning every motive or statement that's been made?
