    "She had to whisper it though sadly" is beautiful.https://twitter.com/thewillwitt/status/1111074935084974080 …

    Will Witt @thewillwitt
    My flight attendant just came up to me, shook my hand and said, “it’s an honor to have you on this flight. I know who you are. Thank you for everything you do.” She had to whisper it though sadly. One day, people will be able to say they are conservatives without fear of shame.

        When I first moved to where I live 27 years ago, I had to whisper I was a Democrat. So wah-wah that conservatives have to do it. Welcome to To life.

        There’s a hint of Lawrence Ferlinghetti in there, too. “The pennycandystore beyond the El/is where I first/fell in love/with conservatism.”

        Sitting at a hipster coffee shop. All anyone can talk about is how sad it is that flight attendants have to conceal their proud conservatism.

        Years later, they’ll meet on a mountaintop or desert island, and she’ll be able to tell him how she really feels.
