19. I was especially glad to see this tonight. I have been "fighting"
the repugs in my family for weeks months, years). None of them seem to have a clue what is going on and I had almost lost all hope that there was any chance of pulling this country back from the abyss.

I was told by my six-year old granddaughter this weekend that her grandfather (on her father's side of the family) told her that I was just crazy and not very patriotic for not liking Bush. I do not talk politics with the man (retired Navy man - all he can talk about are his military exploits, medals, what a kick ass leader he was 25 years ago - we have little to talk about but I am polite), see him maybe once every couple of years yet he takes the opportunity to tell my little sweetheart that I'm crazy and don't love my country because of his slavish devotion to a "moran." It is bad enough having to listen to all three sons-in-law, their families, my brothers, sister, the in-laws, and most of my damn neighbors spouting off about Chimpy. I'm beginning to feel like the nutty aunt that every southern family seems to have hidden in the upstairs bedroom. Just overlook her, she is bat sh*t crazy cause she is a liberal.

The jerk was like most neocons, was a chickensh*t. He'll spread lies and nonsense about about to a child but confronting me head on? No, that would be too tough.

May there be more meetings like the one at Camp Casey tonight. I need a little hope.
