2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Ellen Sturtz gets a column in WaPo: "Why I confronted the first lady" [View all]Summer Hathaway
(2,770 posts)35. Just can't help yourself, can you?
I don't know Sturtz personally, and I certainly never said she was a "bad person". I said her behavior in this particular situation was rude and uncalled for.
I also never said anything even CLOSE to GLBT equality being a 'bother'.
Look, let's end this here. You are determined to keep insisting that I said things I didn't say. So being that you're not the least bit interested in what I have actually said, why don't we just cut out the middle-man (me) and you can continue this conversation that you are obviously having between yourself and the statements you want to pretend I'm making.

I can't help but feel that she is heckling the wrong people over LGBT equality

To the Blame Obama First crowd, your good, well-reasoned advice would fall on deaf ears.

It seems like being "anti-Obama" for whatever real or imagined slight is considered "street cred"

So she retired at 56, and that makes her unqualified to speak on gender issues?
