My parents were big time leftists, and I never appreciated their ideals. I remember thinking g at a very young age why it is fair that I work harder and smarter than some lazy person and have to give some lazy person a lot of my money. We just avoided politics at dinners when I grew up. I asked a young girl that was member of CA young republicans why she was a member and she said her parents were liberals and that was her form of rebellion.

To mark Salon's 20TH anniversary, I am going to become an Onanist so the kids I will never have will never become writers for Salon.com.

"I don’t want to indoctrinate my child into the cult of my political beliefs. I want her to make up her own mind."

Yeah, right. She's undoubtedly been demonizing conservatives in her daughter's presence her entire life.

That's an archaeological treasure chest. It portrays a mindset of a large swathe of the developed world in a single essay. I am grateful to this author for taking the time to say so clearly what so many of us grope to put words to.

And I issue no hyperbole when I say: It is frightening!

Wow! This woman really needs validation; she doesn’t know who she is or what she stands for... And now she’s divorced? What a shocker! Her poor kid...

Ah..the proud ignorant. The worst thing in the world her daughter could become is conservative. If she became a lesbian or a murderer or a welfare recipient i guess she could deal with that? But a conservative? How could mom ever hold her head up around her fellow commie associates?

The author needs a dose of reality.

May it hit her in the face. Hard. And wake her up.

There’s a very good reason a 12 year-old embraces these politics; they were designed to appeal to a 12 year-old mentality.

I stuffed her in her bright green baby backpack and headed to Times Square. There, she grinned and drooled as tourists in fanny packs and white tennis shoes yelled mean things at a dozen of us who were demanding that votes be counted. They weren’t, thanks to the Supreme Court, and George W. Bush was sworn in — thus assuring that Lizzie’s formative years had ample opportunities for protest......She was stupid back then, too.

She lives in Portland, Oregon with her stash of books

Had I skimmed to the bottom, that would have saved me a few minutes. My eyes hurt now.

‘I morph into a sullen 16-year-old with no power, whose views are considered childish. I want to engage, to discuss topics calmly with them, but my emotions knock any possibility of cool-headed debate out of the way. All my facts and statistics — the cornerstone of rational debate — get gummed together in my mouth by raw emotion and I only manage to get out incoherent raw ravings.’

Because her views are childish- based on some stupid utopian vision espoused by Marx, with nothing but fabrications to back them up. That is why no liberal can come up with anything more advanced than ‘racist’ ‘hater’ ‘bigot’ ‘homophobe’ or some other personal insult- because the only other option is spewing irrelevant drivel.
