Daughter's exchange with a rightwinger...

My daughter works at a local mom & pop convenience store. The other day one of her fellow employees noticed the 'I heart ObamaCare' bumper sticker on the back of her car. He asked her..Really? Do you really support that? Her answer ... "I am a 28 year old college grad living at home and working at a carry-out, you bet your ass I support it!"
Incidentally this was the first comment she's gotten that was even slightly critical of it.

Not at once, he's said it throughout many speeches, but she's included in several of the demographics he repeatedly said would have no consideration from his hopeful administration.

Double so if she's gay, brown, pregnant, or ill.

I cannot for the life of me understand - without invoking the Stockholm Syndrome - why ANY women would vote for Romney...

we all should refuse to refer to it as that. We need to reset the argument.
