      Unlike MOOchelle who had cushy, overpaid political jobs courtesy of her Daddy’s then her Hubby’s Chicago connections.

    • I mostly severed my relationship with my own father in the last years of his life because I couldn’t deal with his relentless negativity about my choice to be a full-time mother. According to him, I was sitting around all day, doing nothing, when I should have been out working at a job and helping my poor hardworking husband pay the bills. I knew my old man couldn’t have lasted one day doing what I do every day…. but you couldn’t tell that man anything. He judged everything by its monetary value, and since you don’t get paid for being a mother, it had no value as far as he was concerned.

        That makes me sad – I was lucky to have a father who thought everything I did was just right. I can’t imagine a situation like yours.

        • Ting, back in my youth I would have said I envy you. Now that my father is dead and I’ve forgiven him for what he did to me, I’m past being bitter, and I can truthfully say I’m happy for you. Actually, I’m always glad when friends tell me they had a father who was loving and supportive, because I wouldn’t wish what I went through on anyone. Fortunately, my children also have a father like that. 🙂

            Ditto, Bob. Though I was able to enjoy my father for a while at the end, because he went a tad gaga and kept telling me how much he loved me. It was nice to hear … finally. And a huge improvement over his comment as I was preparing for my first job interview. “Who would hire YOU!?”

    Rush just pointed out that Sarah Palin was criticized for being a mother of 5 and WORKING; Ann Romney is criticized for being a mother of 5 and staying home! And some folk still think it’s possible to win with these people by concession and compromise…

      Funny thing … Nancy Pelosi has five kids also, but I don’t recall anyone ever making any snarky remarks about her for having so many or for staying home or not staying home.

      Bob’s got it right.

      Check D when you register to vote and you automatically get the Political Correctness Seal of Approval on all your life choices, regardless of how bad they may appear. E.g., making the United States a laughing stock while destroying the life of a woman young enough to be your daughter.

      Check R and you prove to the whole world what a bad, bad person you are, regardless of how much good you may appear to do. E.g., adopting a foreign orphan, giving 10% of your income to charity every year, getting the Corrupt Bastards Club out of Alaska and behind bars, then making it so every Alaskan gets a check from the oil companies.

    This is going to be a fun, busy weekend. My niece is going to marry my son’s best friend and there will be a big engagement party at my house this weekend. Lots to do, but for the happiest reasons. If I get this excited about my niece’s wedding, Lord help me when it is my own son or daughter!
