Abby is a Republican

Her father sought the GOP presidential nomination, but was rejected after he confessed to believing in evolution and global warming

..but she is no Morning Joe, and is drop dead gorgeous

Abby is their token Republican and her thinking has been injured by her Republican father and her faith.

Like all kids who are raised in a religious Republican family where dogma is interwoven into their thinking.

You are seeing in her statement the power of indoctrination with dogma when children are young. Changing is almost impossible despite subsequent information counter to what was learned when young.

Very sad, IMO.

I have no influence over anyone anywhere.


<<Since you are a rabid fan of MSNBC (I call you a rabid fan since most of us here like MSNBC but not to the extent that we consider the hosts professors like you do). I just read that Abby Huntsman is proposing on her show that the retirement age be raise or SS benefits be cut by 25% so that "her generation is assured that SS won't go away." That is surprising because all these "professors" should know that just by raising the cap (scrap the cap) SS will get more funds. But the rich are influencing Congress to not raise the cap.

Would you have any influence with MSNBC and Abby in particular to tell them to desist from talking like a Republican particularly on MSNBC.
