You are not the only bleeding heart in Texas! But you need to learn the secret handshake and get the map to our secret base...

That's like if there's something that I dont like on the radio or tv, I just turn it off or switch the station.

I really would have loved to see this woman's reaction if I'd been home when she came a callin'... my husband is black, and I'm white! Assuming her bigotry isn't only towards gays, she probably would have just shook her head, said "nevermind", and walked away, figuring it was a lost cause! Either that, or she would have told us that mixing of the races is an abomination against God!

She'd have soiled her depends I think.

Then I would've brought up the name of that writer Honore De Balzac and she'd have thought I was talking dirty and said I was going to hell for that too!!.

You're right. Austin is our Batcave!!

Before I worked in the corporate offices, I worked as a book manager in one of the stores. During the 2004 election, I had a display of politically themed books, most were of a liberal slant, but that was because there were more books published against Bush than for. My poor staff and I got soooo many complaints. I would always counter with the argument that no matter who is in power, there will always be more opposition books and that no one complained when Clinton was in office and every other book was slandering him.

One guy had the nerve to call the radio and tv station and complain that I censored books because I was sold out of that Swift Boat book. There I was on the news holding up my reservation list to prove I was not keeping people from reading whatever they chose to.

I think the next time she comes over, you should answer the door in a thong and pasties and exclaim while pulling her inside "are you my next client"

I would love to see that!

Mind you, I'm not about to take the bumper stickers off my car. In fact, I may get some more! But I tend to shy away from being overly confrontational when I'm driving, especially after the time my car got hit with a slurpie by a rude driver that I had flipped her off! I'm afraid that with my luck, if I get too confrontational with a driver here, I'll get by a bullet rather than a slurpie!

I'm actually surprised that when the big black man opened the front door, she didn't go running down the street screaming "They're ALL coming to get us now!"
