Is this for real

Which leads me to saying that a) FOX didn't need to make a story out of that to begin with and b) it's kind of odd how the sentiments of a segment of people are important that often regularly - and maybe sometimes even rightfully - mock the "hurt feelings" of the left. People who feel offended or white shamed by this are, let's say, snowflakes. Is what I feel.

I disagree and have absolutely no problem with Nancy getting called out for the "story". You want to monopolize Congress for 8 hours so a budget cannot get voted on; be ready to get some feedback. 

The more I think about her words the more ignorant I feel they are. I think to point of her story was to embrace diversity, but she illustrated this by saying her Grandson wanted to be the same as his friend and that made her proud. Wouldn't make more sense if she said she was proud because her GC said he realizes that he and his friend are different, but it doesn't matter? 

I can easily see how some would consider her words to be "white shaming"; what color do we assume the kid is that wants this change?
