Autumn

Relief!

Nice knowing you, kid.

I was able to sleep very well

after having listened to the vice presidential debate 

while also having followed it on twitter, a first for me.

I agree with Robert Reich

"Biden delivered: 

Passion, conviction, indignation, incredulity at Ryan's lies. 

He stood up for average working people.

Robert Reich's grades:

Passion and conviction: Biden A, Ryan C.

Logic: Biden A-, Ryan C+.

Facts: Biden B, Ryan D. 

Closing: Biden C, Ryan B.  

I gave Vice President Biden an A on the skewed CNN poll.

Biden ought to keep on smiling

because he clearly displayed his expertise and experience

in foreign affairs.

Biden's outrage at the ridiculous Republican assertions

were absolutely justified.  

I actually share with Republicans

 a belief that life begins at conception.

I consider abortion a very tough choice to make, 

one that I never ever would want to make,

never had to make for myself,

and never ever would want to impose on another woman!

I appreciate our Vice President 

not forcing his beliefs on the rest of us.

"If Obama had been this strong, 

the election would be over now."

"Don't raise your voice, 

improve your argument"

Vice-President Biden argued masterfully.

Relief!

No Attack On Iran!

Julian called upon us to stand for Peace.

 Linda Durham, activist extraordinaire, 

 twice participant in a Gaza Flotilla,

stood for Peace

and against a build up to war with Iran.

 George, an almost retired state worker,

took time out of his busy day to stand for peace

and against the rhetoric of war on Iran.

Seasoned activists, 

Sumo and Isabella watched patiently from the sidelines 

as the protest progressed.

Unequivocal support of Israel 

will no longer do. 

 International tough stances and wishing for what once was, 

will no longer do.

 A groaning and moaning patriarchal system 

is on it's way out.

Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney is it's current poster child.

A new world order is inevitable.

I Voted Early Today!

I voted today!

Accompanied by my pups

I personally fed the 1,000th paper ballot 

 in to the voting machine

on this second day of early voting.

I voted AGAINST the R & Rs,

against the truly repugnant Republican stance.

Simplistic slogans will never illuminate 

my differentiated point of view, lol, 

but they do make for rather succinct statements.

Expect a post on Republican atrocities to follow shortly.

Shadow Play

Spinning Heads

4 year old spins on his head.

My head spins on credit cards

- metaphorically speaking.
