I see, so the only way they can be "normal" is if they seek out "like individuals" So because she is deaf she must seek out deaf individuals to be normal. If she "snubs" them she is just rejecting her disability and out of touch with who she is. You are right, in the "animal world" and we...

Why does everyone that is deaf have to fit into a nice little hole that you all can plug? What if this person is just happy with the way their life is? Is it just possible that OMG they really don't need to fit into any group? Just because they are deaf? Maybe they have learned to accept their...

I agree. My heart goes out to him and his family.

Apology accepted.:wave:

I do take it literally when someone determins for me what is important, or not. I decide what I feel is irrelavant, not someone else, because this is my life and not any one elses. I happen to think this is an important topic because she is the presidents WIFE, She was obviously caught in a...

That is not what I meant. I was simply trying to show how her story just doesn't ring true. The part of her sitting on her Daddy's lap was an embelishment desinged to pull on the Judge's heart strings and it could of backfired. I didn't say she was overweight, but she is not little either, she...

I would if I could but I am currently stuck on the couch with a rare form of RSD in stage 3 of my right foot. I can barely walk, so I decided to spend my day in conversation with people I find interesting. Talking about Topics that I find interesting. Not that what or how I spend my day is...

She said she was in Daddy's lap. Why does that mean any one's mind is in the gutter?? It is a very questionable story. What is the likelyhood she would watch all three sitting in her Daddy's lap!? It sounds silly and untrue. If she did sit in Daddy's lap for every single one of them, I would...

It could be. None the less I find it embarrassing. Mistake, lie, whatever. She was there to represent not just Chicago, but The US. The embelished feel good story, designed to pull at your heart strings but ended up making her look like a liar and a fool is a reflection of all of us in a way...

Exactly!!! She may have cost votes. Sitting on Daddy's lap is just an embelishment to give you warm fuzzy feelings but the time line cannot be over looked and I am sure a few knew rather quickly the story was not accurate. Michelle's fault or the promters, doesn't matter the responsiabilty falls...

Not you..Koko posted about thinking about his wife in the wrong thread. Look back and you will see.

He posted it in the wrong thread. Look at both threads.

I think showing us that famous people do make mistakes and are not perfect is a nice dose of reality. While I don't celebrate in their mistakes and misfortune I can bring them to a level that is more human and know in spite of my mistakes as a human I will get through them one way or another...

This is just awful. I am so sorry. Excuse me for saying so but where was your partner and why didn't they speak up? If I read this right this is your home? They are guests. I would be speaking up. No one should be treated this way and especially not in their own home. I would be showing them the...

What is really sad is she is being "raped" all over again via the media and the news and now even more so with Whoopi's idiotic statement adding more attention and more attraction to this poor woman's ordeal. She didn't ask to be raped let alone by someone famous and now even though she has...

LOL I wasn't speaking of those who obviously should know better! Those people that do the same behaviors over and over need a knock upside the head. I guess I have witnessed some deaf people over the years that want to teach bad words as an ice breaker, and I have witnessed some deaf people that...

I apperciate all the responses. I would like to make something clear. communication was never a problem with my parents as far as ASL. It was my first language and like I said I am very fluent and have been mistaken as a deaf person time and time again. If I never said I was a hearing person in...

That is NOT at all what I was saying. My comments had nothing to do with culture they had to do with understanding. If you read my post you will see that it was not asking to change a culture but a way of thought and behavior and giving views from both sides. Hearing people do not always know...

Thank you, however I guess it depends on what side of the rail you are on if I am right or wrong. You are doing a wonderful unselfish thing for your child! Thinking about HER world and doing what is best for her, that is what my mind and heart tells me is the way a parent should be. You are a...

It's not anger, or bitterness, it's just plain old hurt. Thank you for all your input. I do apperciate it.
