You Tell Me...

You Tell Me...

In order to bring a little bit of Chicago's St. Patty's Day Spirit to D.C., First Lady Michelle Obama had the fountain in front of the white house dyed green today.

So, you tell me: awesome or silly?

Unsolicited Advice for Public Figures: Meghan McCain

Unsolicited Advice for Public Figures: Meghan McCain

She didn't ask, but that doesn't mean that I am not going to give Meghan McCain a little bit of Astrid-esque advice as she continues to pop up on the political radar.

Here is my advice:

#1 Keep it up. 

You help me, a long time Democrat, understand the Republican party (or at least what it could be and is probably becoming).  You help me see Republicans not as the "other" but as someone I could have an important political conversation with without feeling threatened or like I want to throw my latte at you, regardless of our disagreements.

You support gay marriage, and you find Ann Coulter offensive.

Advice nugget #2:  Develop a stance on the economy.  I don't understand any of it either, and I appreciate your honesty about it in your Rachel Maddow interview.  But if people are going to take you seriously, you will need to understand the economy.  And when you figure it all out, could you please explain it to me? : )
