I did go to work (and thought myself extraordinarily fortunate) immediately after my 16<sup>th</sup> birthday at Gritman Hospital. And, I need hardly mention that in those long ago days nurse’s aides cleaned a lot of rooms, changed linen on beds, and emptied bedpans. It was not glamorous work especially if one only considered the job description. But I learned so much that a snotty, self-important teenager like me needed to learn. I earned my own spending money, I learned that I was not the center of the universe, I witnessed both death and birth at a relatively young age, and those experiences changed my worldview and my sense of what is really important, that is, people not things. In fairness, Peter, Paul and Mary, not to mention Joan Baez, also deserve some credit. I wish every teen could have the working and learning opportunity that I had. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#993366'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#993366'>I specifically mentioned race in my email because I believe that Newt is not so subtly appealing to racist notions of welfare queens living in Detroit wasting tax payers money, addicted to crack and the shopping networks. Somehow, I doubt he is referring to <a href="Heartbreakingly">Pine Ridge South Dakota</a> where grinding poverty and lack of employment is heartbreakingly beyond our understanding or experience. I don’t think he was referring to the thousands of families who have had their <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/08/22/foreclosure-us-america-mortgage-payment_n_933106.html">homes foreclosed</a> in the last couple of years. Newt and this third wife probably don’t run into those folks on their trips to Tiffany’s. And he certainly couldn’t be referencing the 13 million + who are unemployed through no fault of their own.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#993366'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#993366'>I am a fiscal conservative too.
