“400 pages????
I suppose she rambles as much in writing as she does in her tortured speech.
I betcha she just couldn't cut any of those fascinatin' stories about roughin' it in the frontier and fightin' for real Americans. ;)”

“Somebody else wrote the book... she just signed her name... rogue.”

The Truth About Nazis

Commented Aug 24, 2009 at 09:54:24 in Politics

“Until you have stood at a concentration camp and seen the hideous remnants, you can't grasp much of the horror. I have been to Auschwitz and seen the rooms full of human hair, of shoes, of prosthetics left behind by the victims of Nazis. I have walked under the sign that read, "Work shall make you free." And I have stood by the blown-up ruins of the ovens and seen the ashes--what is left of human beings-- that are still visible on the the ground.
Obviously none of these people who throw around Nazi accusations and comparisons against our President have seen or truly understand any of these things. And our treasured freedom of speech allows them to showcase their ignorance.
Thank you for an article that brings some truth and clarity to this surreal situation.”

“A few tears escaped from me, I must admit. At one point my five-year-old leaned over and asked, "Are you crying AGAIN?"
Those storytellers at PIXAR were able to convey so much emotion with just visuals and music--very bittersweet and lovely.
I loved the short film "Partly Cloudy" too.”

“So true. I actually wore heels for my City Hall wedding and even though it was a quick affair, I wished I was back in my usual flats!
When everyone gushes about how beautiful heels look, I think of my mom's varicose veins. She was a school teacher and the dress code required heels (and prohibited pants!) and paid for it later.
Good for Mrs. O and her flats.”
