Thank you Victoria, we seem to agree on this article. I am insulted by this woman's words, I can't give her a pass because she was dying, we all die, but we do not need to hurt our children in the process to satisfy some melodramatic need to be a martyr.

I can't help but to think of the impact that the words on this opus had on Practical Patty, her own mother wishing that if she had children, they would be like someone else...amazing.

I wonder exactly where, if not here, this woman would have been happier. Maybe in some island with a ruthless dictator, someplace where she could have learned what it really means to be a slave. Maybe then, instead of this self-serving dribble, she could have thanked the Lord for healthy daughters, and for allowing her to live in the greatest country on the world. And with her dying breath whispered "God Bless America".

"But my grandbabies will be born as slaves. And oh God, I regret that. And I regret not being around to protect them."

Protect them? She laments that she did nothing, and was unable to even protect herself from "them", but she's sorry that she won't be around to protect her yet to be born grandkids?

God works in mysterious ways, she will not be around to teach her grandchildren to hate America.

B.S.

"It is both possible and moral, to love one’s country and hate its government."
--Walter E. Williams

"Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any public official, save exactly to the degree he himself stands by the country."
--Theodore Roosevelt
