I am so sick of hearing family in this convention. No one gives a shit about family.

1. Most people don't live in "families" as they define the word.....

These people live in a fairy tale.

2. Anyway you define it, government is supposed to serve citizens not families.

3. Sounds like a rehash of the '92 convention

4. Everyone I know is at odds with their family. Personally, mine was quite

toxic as was my husband's and all my friends and I don't think we are that unusual.

Of course, we are older.

I think that's when most families disintegrate and fall apart - as the children get older and the parents are no longer the focus or the "glue" that keeps them together.

5. Yep. They certainly don't give a shit about my family

or my neighbors' families. They don't give a shit about any family that has GLBT folk in it, give or take Mary Cheney. :(

6. It's the sort of family where

The Mom has a drug problem, the Dad boinks everything in sight, the teenage daughter is pregnant, the aunts are disowned... but they can't help bragging about how much better there family is than a liberals family.

"At least we ain't got no kweers in our family, you fuckin libruls." :( :puke:
