Mom: So it looks like that Osama guy is doing a good job so far after he got elected.
Me: Mom, it’s not Osama. It’s Obama.

Me: Ma, did you go vote?
Mom: Mamta, the lines were so long… there was no parking this morning so I left.
Me: Mom, you’re an immigrant… you’ve been through tougher times than this. You came to America with $25 and now you’re giving up your right to vote because you can’t wait in line??
Mom: That was so long ago… we came to America for an easier way of life.

A story from a MMIAF reader:

I recently explained to my mom what “Yes on 8″ meant since there are a lot of signs in our neighborhood. We also just had two gay weddings in the family. On Thursday, at our neighborhood meeting, a woman running for a Senate seat in our district asked if we wanted a “Yes on 8″ sign for our lawn. I respectfully turned it down, but then my mom laughed and said loudly, “We cannot take! Our family has the gay!”

In the spirit of election day…

Me: Mom, do you know who you’re going to vote for yet?
Mom: I don’t know yet. I don’t really know anything about Obama Baracka.
Me: Obviously. You don’t even know his name.

The 10-year cultural revolution in China happened after the communist occupied the mainland China (we had alredy arrived and lived in Taiwan). The movie “Red Violine” also described part of the Cultureal Revolution in China. If you are related to KMD, you will be a dead meat.
