Bachman - Gay families aren't families

[daleduke17]

Bull. She's running for President. She has the power to 'encourage' Congress to make her opinion into law, if she wants. That makes her opinions the business of the country.

Yeah, she can get her opinion made into law if she wants, but, she is still entitled to her opinion.

[Gravekeeper]

Today, she said that Americans are worried about the rise of the Soviet Union..... >.>

[AdminAssistant]

Um.....huh? Granted Putin does give off that "conquer all the things!" vibe, but that's, y'know, Russia. Not the Soviet Union.

Considering at least half the people I'm friends with weren't even alive when the Soviet Union collapsed (it collapsed months after I was born if I remember my history classes properly)... so I really doubt many of us... who aren't old and senile... are that concerned about the Soviets.

[Rapscallion]

You've just made me feel really old...

Rapscallion

Nah. You're only REALLY old if you remember the genesis of the Soviet Union.

[Akasa]

Add me to the list of those who feel old.

I'm hardly old or senile and I remember the Soviets.....

Gee, kick a man when he's down...

[Gravekeeper]

I think I was 10 when it collapsed. Old enough to remember the Soviet Union, but not what the big deal was. -.-

I didn't say you have to be old and senile to remember the soviets... just to still be concerned about them

I think it more makes the people who view her favourably dangerous.

That's the part that really scares me.

Our biggest travel customer has this campaign for a account. I have to book her flights alot when she flies commercial. They are an 'interesting' bunch, to say the least.

I'm wondering what I can get away with spilling on here, publicly.

[Rapscallion]

Probably not much, but my inbox is always open.

I was about the same age, but I had an understanding of the importance of it at that time. In all honesty, my grandparent's on my mom's side had relatives in Germany, so I made a point of understanding the small part of it, if not the grand scale.

[HYHYBT]

I told Dad about this, and he said we *do* have to worry about them, whatever they're called.

[Rapscallion]

His reasoning? I've got plenty of my own, but what's his?
