Uncle David's influence

Tonight I made up a story about a malevolent spirit that haunted a playground called Fairyland. At the very end of the story, Rachel announced, "The spirit is a Republican."

"Huh??" I exclaimed. "Who told you about Republicans?"

"Uncle David," she said. "Publicans are greedy. We demand, they force. They're much like the stepmother and stepsister in Cinderella. I don't even want to be NEAR one."

I was so flabbergasted, I couldn't reply. We were silent the rest of the way home.

  1. Really! I respect Uncle David, but don't think he should indoctrinate my 4-year old grand-daughter.
