2. hey - I wanted to talk to you...

Learn a little bit about you.

I'm 36, deaf, with a 34 year old deaf wife, and we have a CODA three year old.

I can tell you it's been an interesting experience watching my son grow up.

We learn how to use cues from Joey to tell us what he wants.

I'm the only one in this immediate family that can talk to Joey. He will listen to me, but sometimes will listen to his mother.

But, you know, living with a CODA boy can open your eyes on the CODA world.

Let me give you an example. http://www.keithwann.com

He is a CODA.

7. The GOP base eats this stuff up--it fits their view of the world.

Of course some of them are part of the 47% but they lack the imagination to see themselves as wards of the state. He couldn't back away from this if he wanted to.

9. Well, to be fair, in his view that would be like apologizing to the enemy. In a way, I agree

Romney is (or at least his policies are) unquestionably the enemy of the working class.

In his world there are only rich folks, servants and dancing horses.

If you weren't paying 50K to sit there and listen to his bullshit, you were one of the

servants and they don't even see them unless they need something.

And that, ironically, is one of their biggest weaknesses.

sorry some imbecile actually recorded this hot mess. The GOP understands this like few other of the human species. Merely a "bad media" day.
