And I feel you, I was with my in-laws and another fellow Marine's family when they were complaining about politics, which included calling the President some racial slurs AND getting chuckles from each other! Mind you, this was behind closed doors in a family home and no one was in uniform, but still. They assumed that everyone in the room was in agreement with them. They also talked about how the Affordable Care Act was an infringement on their individual rights. When asked why and what they understand about the health care system, the best response they had was, "Well, it's just wrong!" As someone who's very much involved in public health and an adamant Obama supporter AND a person of color who's had racial epithets used against me, I was pretty livid. How can they assume that everyone in that room would nod in agreement with them?! (Sorry, rant-share over.)<br /><br />And I'm glad your eyeballs didn't get stuck in the back of your head :) (Such a great line! Made me chuckle.)TKhttp://inpolife.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690983853781756587.post-38914250244462724812012-09-26T20:14:49.238-04:002012-09-26T20:14:49.238-04:00WOW!

It would have taken me at least a bottle and a half of wine to make it through that without smacking (verbally or otherwise) the good senator. Good on you though. <br /><br />At least the food was good. Did they serve cake? I want so very desperately to make a Marie Antoinette joke here.Margothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01354931288147701203noreply@blogger.com
