Imagine if this was you!
I completely agree with the sentiment in your post, however, IMO, the brand new adage "haters gonna hate" is true. Anyone who would go on a news site like that a spout that kind of garbage will not be put down by a few sensible words. They are best left to their small little worlds so those of us who wish to be informed and responsible can do so. The news organizations allow these commentors, for what reason, I'm not sure but we don't have to sink to their level.

So, yes, I believe we should support Tammy, I just think it will be her words that will be the most powerful ones to tell her story. That is why I have posted the links to the CBC's current events programs.
