Grandma Usin' the Intrawebs

You should know a little bit about my family. They are FLAMING Republicans. They don't know why besides everyone in my family is one, and if you have (or want to have) a lot of money, you have to be a Republican. You can NEVER be a Democrat because only blacks, the poor, and atheists are Democrats. All Democrats want to do is steal your hard earned money and put it into programs that help these "people" who are too lazy to help themselves.


That said, my grandmother is one of those Republicans who doesn't know why. She watches FOX News and believes terrible email forwards full of right winged bias and bogus news.


She also sends me, and everyone she has ever met in her 60+ years, literally three to five email forwards a day. Mostly terrible political statements about Obama, or warnings about what is in your plant food, or how to keep from being raped in a mall parking lot by using your jewelry.


Today, another Obama stab. Apparently (one click on snopes.com will probably prove it wrong), a sign on the side of the road in North Carolina. I know I know, when you hear North Carolina, you automatically think, "Wow!! NC? No way! I always fancied them such a forward thinking state!"

Hats off to those North Carolinians!!!!!


Subject: Sign On Hwy 15-501 - North Carolina SIGN OF THE TIMES!!

These signs should be placed at every major intersection in the U.S.
Seen on US Hwy 15-501 at Lamm's Grove intersection. (near Durham, N.C.)


Now if only grandma could give me explanation as to why the sign says all these things about the Obama administration.

  1. You should clarify by stating that not ALL are flaming Republicans ... There are plenty of moderates or Democrats. It just so happens that your Grandma and Mom are a little uneducated when it comes to politics and believe what they get sent to them as forwards. Love you! Love your blog Ashley Lynn :-)
