Okay, this still makes me *shudder* when I think about it.

I am in rural East, TN.

Had an elderly client in the office who thought she had an "original" letter from Bush, and would I make a copy of it for her. Sure, no big deal, and, of course, I read it. It was just a "send me money", thing so that I can continue to fight evil, yadda, yadda, yadda.

She then proceeded to make several personal, disparaging comments about Senator Kerry; ending with....<CAUTION> "he's married to that Ni**er from Africa"! I was just speechless, and I can't remember EVER being speechless.

I told my partner, that if she ever darkens the door again, he would have to deal with her.

The up-side (if there is one to that type of mentality) is that her transaction that day resulted in a bonus in my paycheck, which I donated to the Kerry/Edwards campaign.

I'll never understand Tennessee. (I'm originally from Michigan). It's very pretty here, and there is an abundance of sunshine, but these people just absolutely THRIVE on hate!
