Chris Matthews just told this story about a teaching nun who made fun of Biden's stutter.

Guess we know where he gets his fighting spirit! LOL

3. That was funny!
I don't know how long it will last, but it is SO great to FINALLY hear some positive things from the talking heads today. It's like a dream, today's coverage on MSNBC.

Anyone watching CNN? How is it over there?

4. Love that story!
Edited on Sat Aug-23-08 02:02 PM by SeattleGirl
Similar thing happened to my mom when she was in high school. Her chemistry teacher made fun of her in front of the entire class, because she was having a bit of a difficult time understanding something. When my grandfather heard about it, he went to the teacher, and demanded the teacher apologize to my mother in front of the entire class. My grandfather refused to leave until the teacher did just that. (And no, mom wasn't embarrassed by what grandpa did; she loved my grandfather for sticking up for her AND for embarrassing the teacher!)

5. Now there's a mom I can REALLY love. This from a mom who once
pulled a badge on a 10-year-old who stole her son's bike...

I should have been a little ashamed of that, but I'm still not, 12 years later.
