And then I went off to find my teenager, who was mad that I didn't get her backstage to meet Sheryl Crow.

Waaaaaaaaa. Blame Sheryl Crow for not making the effort to meet her fans who march to her Pied Piper flute. She uses her star power to bring out young people and then says, "Screw 'em".

That's when it hit me. John Kerry tours with a rock star; Bill Clinton was a rock star. But while he put on a great rally, Clinton didn't deliver what he promised my generation of moms. Maybe the next one will fare better.

She must be a blonde. A blonde woman went to the doctor and said, "Doctor, I don't know what's wrong with me! Everything I touch hurts!"
The doctor said, "Well, what do you mean?"
The patient continued, "Well, when I touch my head, 'owww', it hurts. When I touch my shoulder, 'owwwww', it hurts. When I touch my leg, 'owwwww!'"
The doctor looked at the patient and said, "Let me see your hand... your finger is broken!"

The soccer mom voted for Bill Clinton to be the prince of her dreams. He wasn't. She's not as thrilled by John F***em Kerry but she still believes the lying 'Rats.

Maybe when she reaches retirement, she won't be a yellow dog Democrat anymore.

"My husband and I have huge student loans and credit card debt."

And whose fault is this?

Wasn't there an article posted here recently about how children have become "wanting machines", driven by TV marketing, and actualized by parents buying them off because they can't (or won't) spend time with them instead. I'm on the fringes of GenX (1971), but if this is an even moderately pervasive attitude, I'm switching generations.

See Generation X parents outshine Baby Boomers, It appears these three losers ended up on the wrong side of the bell curve.

BTW, Interesting that the author mentions the 30,000 that showed up for Clinton but fails to mention the crowd size for Kerry.

I must say, these people are truly stupid. They want it all, but don't want to pay their dues.

"Her friend, Katie Gletty- Syoen, also from Madison and mom of Ella, 4 months, said she was touched by Kerry's talk about "the mom who had to keep saying 'no' to her kids" because she couldn't afford to give them what they wanted. Coming of age during the affluent '90s, then becoming parents during this decade, makes them relate to stories of having less than before."

Well, isn't that terrible - having to say "no" to a child. God God, are these people spoiled. Since when is it bad to tell a child no? That's a huge part of what ails America - "adults" who don't know how to be parents.

These are the same jerks who voted for that lying pimp clinton twice and would put an arrogant charlatan like kerry into office. Grow up, you ignorant twits.
