I'm shattered. I know I rarely post here anymore but I had to come get some sympathy. I knew my old DU friends would understand.
This girl was my loyal side kick from the age of 13. We are separated by several states now, and only keep in touch via facebook and (very) occasional visits.
I have seen some wing nut posts of hers and scolded her but I just had no idea . . .
I think I may have to unfriend her. I think some beautiful childhood / teenage memories just became tainted forever. I swear she was not like this when we were kids. Not at all.
Heart breaking facebook email from an old friend
One of my dearest friends until now, she wrote among other awful things:
People don't hate Obama because he's black. Haven't you heard? He supports ISIS. He sends reps to funerals of people he wants to use to his advantage and ignores the death of those who don't. His wife is a racist instigator and uses her power for her agenda not Americas. Is he even trying to snuff out this raging fire of discord? No. He is not an American President. Obama Husain Binladin supports terrorists. Ooops, I mean Barak Husain Obama.
