I am so grateful that you have the listening and language skills to be able to follow my far left political rants. I am so proud that you went to school and told your best friend that it was NOT Obama's fault the government was shut down and that you voted for Obama at school because "Romney only loves riches, but Obama helps poor people". But maybe, just perhaps, at dinner with the Sister missionaries is not the time to wax political and rant about how when you were just a baby that Daddy was sent away to war "to fight for gas"!
