"My family is more powerful then yours"

[rhino47]

This is a quote from my repig sister.I love my sister very much and as there are 5 of us Delaney girls we are very close.
However on a recent phone call my sister invited me to an event.I replied I could not go because I was phonebanking.She at first joking said thats ok her familys vote will cancel mine out.I replied "Good Luck because we registered more then 300 people to vote"Her reply was the but my family is more powerful then yours.
You see here is some history on Sue.
She was a bartender that worked her way up to food/bev manager.She then filed and won a sexual descrimination law suit against her employer for a little over 1 mil.She then married a millionare.
I remember her from living in brookline in pittsburg (not the nicest part but not the worst part of the burg) I also remember sending her money so her son could go to a private school.What the hell went so wrong that those words could be thought by her let alone uttered.I feel I have lost her to the evil clutches of the rethugs.

1. Maybe you should remind her of her party's stance on

those damned trial lawyers. Looks like she profited from them.

2. She's rich.

I have a cousin who is similar. We grew up together - middle class. Now she is an ex-pat, has a big townhouse in Central London, banker, the works. Hates Dems. Very repug.

It's simple. She's rich - "Self-made." Just like your sister.

They try to fudge the class issue - but it will never disappear.

3. How can marrying a millionare be self made ?

Her mil is pretty well spent.She went through college and law school.I am really proud of her for this.Shes going into intellectual law.She took her ny bar exam.

4. The nouveau riche are all like that

It's the same over here, of course. They're vulgar, crude and think showing off their wealth makes them more worth than others. People who come from families that have been wealthy for generations are often a lot easier to deal with. The woman is a bag of shit. Dump her like one, I say.
