My daughter, who works in the management office for a MAJOR recording artist, was instructed to send out a letter on behalf of this famous recording star. The letter claimed Sarah Palin refused to allow her daughter Bristol to use birth control and is now forcing Bristol to give birth to an unwanted baby. My daughter called to ask me how to handle this. She can't afford to lose her job. I told her to refuse to do it on the grounds that it was "Too mean."

As part of operation chaos I signed up for a free Obama bumper sticker and so the Obama people are contacting me to volunteer. These are VERY mean people. They have an angry bossy tone. Obama supporters are angry, hostile people.

Most of them are from the "ENTITLEMENT CULTURE" - they're entitled to a portion of your income, and they're entitled to act and do as they please. Don't expect any cordiality from that bunch!

What about the grounds that it's untrue? She needs to learn to make a stand based on conviction and truth not because it was too mean. She's indicating that it would be OK if it was a little less mean which probably isn't true. So she's in essence using a lie to prevent another lie?

I’d get on the phone with an organizer, waste their time and see if I could get them to blow a gasket revving them above the red line.

I agree with another post that it is a "no win" situation with the employer.

The best tact I can think of in this situation is to appear to wholeheartedly endorse the idea but "in the interest of the truth" and to really hammer Palin, the email should include the sources of the information or else the "undecideds" may find it unbelievable.

This strategy would protect your daughter with the appearance of cooperation.
