"Somebody's ego is going to be bruised and hurt, and that pride element can be very destructive. We've made it work. You have to. I think it's inexcusable if you don't, personally. No matter how exhausting it is. Even when people have really nasty breakups, there is no excuse not to make it work for your children.
I need to change my Avitar. . . .But seriously, folks, my answer would be: God, please keep him safe and out of harm's way. We need this man so desperately.
Despite my avitar, I am a strong Obama supporter -- and I would never want to see Palin as VP. But this is what I have to say about your coverage of this news. I heard on the TV that the trooper was using his trooper weapons to abuse her sister's children. He had, allegedly, tazered his 12-year-old step son. I think any of us would have done whatever we could to get those weapons out of the abuser's hands. And even as a governor, you know the courts take a long time. I know I would have used whatever power I had to do what she did.
