Partisans

First, let us begin with this video of The Littlest Critic, unprompted, in action almost four years ago. I think you'll gather the scene and situation on the television rather easily. A hint: New York City, 2004.



Flash forward four years later, The Wife, on a whim (actually, she learned about it at the last minute and decided to go, taking TLC) attends a Hillary Clinton rally at nearby Brush High School. Here's how she described TLC's reaction:

she waited outside in the cold after a ten minute walk and then sat quietly in an auditorium (the overflow room) for four hours for a ten minute glance at Hillary Clinton ... she was appropriately excited when Hillary walked into the room, her eyes going wide, her jaw dropping, her face lit up like she just saw a Christmas present, and her hands appropriately clapping and ... she said "I thought she was beautiful" about Hillary Clinton.


Tonight, when I got home, this is what, again, unprompted, my four-going-on-five year old daughter decided to make.


I think it safe to say that we are very proud parents of a member of the next generation of feminism.

Go TLC!

She's got more perspicacity than most adults.

On a side note: I think you can set up your comments so that Anonymous ones aren't allowed. That way you can eliminate cretins like the one who commented above.
