Re:Chelsea Clinton: Did peoples' spin-detectors suddenly short out?

[JDPriestly]

33. That is the first time I have seen her words.

And I find it understandable that people are upset about what she said.

She says she tried to care about things that were very different from her parents then claims she just couldn't care about money?

So she is saying with that that her parents care about money, that money is their metric of success?

No wonder people are criticizing her statement. Her mother is running for president most likely, and Chelsea states indirectly that her parents are concerned about money at some fundamental level. Ughhh! There is something pretty troubling about it.

It's like saying, well my parents care mostly about money and judge people by their financial success, but I'm not like that. Of course she isn't like that, she has always had money and never had to worry that much about it.

Chelsea's statement is very insensitive. It seems like she is bragging that she doesn't have to worry about money. And the truth is she doesn't. The Clintons have been putting their feet in their mouth about money recently. Don't blame the readers. The problem is in those words in black and white.
