What do you guys think about this broad?

Interested to hear opinions.  I see parts of reactions from each side being at least a little bit valid on this, sometimes.

Why, exactly?

Tweeting to 20,000 during a board meeting about a miscarriage that is happening right now.

That miscarriage thing was like two years ago. I've read her blog for a long time. She's fantastic.

And yeah, she has Asperger's, which I guess is a personality disorder.

That's narcissism

That's twitter, narcasistic people pretending their opinions and hashtags are funny and meaningful.

That said, I got no problem with what she said. People saying she should be ashamed are rough ridin' idiots. Also, it does show the flaw in the bureaucratic abortion process.

Yep.  And I think she has a right to feel or act however the eff she wants to feel or act about it.  I mean, it's her miscarriage.  It might fly in the face of others who are super sad about theirs, and that's unfortunate and insensitive, but honestly...it's her miscarriage.  She can do what she wants with it.
