Norman Lear, the
director, wrote me a letter the other day.
The Norman Lear. Yeah, he knows me from Adam! He’s pitching me
for some political org. So I wrote him
back.
Dear Norm,
You and the rest of the well-heeled liberal set ignored the
effects of the bank bail-out, etc. on a hefty portion of the country. Now, we are all stuck with Trump. Stop worrying about the banks, business, and immigrants and
worry a little bit about people who are ALREADY Americans and on the skids, who have given up looking for jobs, etc.
With all due respect, McD
It’s the end of
the year and I make it a point to talk back to the people who richly deserve it.
The Nationwide Ins. made the mistake of sending me their
fraud line and email address after they raised my rates almost 10 percent a
month this fall. I phoned their fraud hotline to report THEM to themselves.
I have a lot of high profile friends—think Liz Warren &
Alec Baldwin--writing my Yahoo account, which I reserve for these high profile
folks. Most fancy themselves tolerant liberals and want me to prove I am too by pitching in.
People,
Shame on you! We have a secular society, and most respect it by
not flaunting private religious symbols in public. When I lived and taught in
Turkey, I did not go into the street in Bermuda shorts and tank tops because
that is not done there, even in August when it is beastly.
Get your head in the game,(without a headscarf) McD
Good exercise for the Critique Eye if nothing else! Check out my piece on Mom here: http://www.csmonitor.com/The-Culture/The-Home-Forum/2016/1228/How-Mom-confounded-the-phone-man
Did you just make the argument, "When in Rome...?". Does that apply to my Somali neighbors? Should they "blend in" by wearing Cubs baseball wear, as well? With due respect to you and your Yahoo Inbox, you lost me.
