Cal Thomas called her and apologized to her this AM and
she just said that was good enough for her and the subject
was "buttoned up."
She also thanked Greta Van Susteren for her support and
for the twitter account #gladrachelwasborn. (Rough quote
and best guess @ the twitter handle)
Rachel = class act!

(3,894 posts)I would imagine that choosing that photo of her is actually a bit insulting to her. She revels in her lack of frufru, so in honor of Rachel, who she really is, I wish for a unrec option.

is this un-frufru enough?

(3,894 posts)And if it was meant sincerely, seems like a picture of who she is now, in all her marvelous-ness of who she is, the person you are talking about. I'd probably react similarly if someone pulled a college or high school picture of Hillary and used it in a similar OP, and for Rachel, it just seems even a tad worse as mentioned above.
Sorry we don't agree, I guess I don't know her, so I'm just trying to imagine how someone raised in the America she was raised in would feel being praised on one hand, and an old, girlie picture like that to almost feel like a slap at who she is now.

(70,657 posts)BTW I think it is a great picture ..... she has laughing eyes.
BTW part deux my o.p. was not all in humor .... she is a class
act! And I loves me some Rachel.

(4,198 posts)We are the sum of each moment as it builds up and I don't really care about what picture it is she's still beautiful to me.
If she is in show business she already has dealt with a lot worse than that picture--and I'm sure that she has some pretty thick skin by now. Anybody who works in that business must!

PEACE!

Since Michigan now has a surplus, the continued use of an Emergency Manager is ridiculous.

Yeah I could dress her better. You should go shopping with me and my SO.
