I was born July 17, 1945, the day after Trinity, the first atomic bomb test. My first specific political memory centered around the duck-and - cover, hide-under-our-desk, exercises that were a regular feature of my grade school life from age 5 on. I knew enough about nuclear war to be terrified. We lived one mile away from an air force base, and I used to go out to the backyard, look up at the planes, and try to determine if they were American or Russian. I remember getting a book out of the library on aircraft identification. (I don't remember what I planned to do if I spotted a Russian plane.) When I heard Joseph Stalin died, I remember asking if that meant no one would drop atom bombs on us. This terror continued; I recall my best friend and I fully expected to die during the Cuban Missile Crisis. That fear motivated my intense involvement in the Nuclear Freeze Movement of the early 80s.   Read More »
Until Obama became the presumptive nominee, I was a Hillary supporter. I wasn't a fervent supporter; I wavered back and forth between her and Obama. Her support of the war was always profoundly upsetting to me. I was unhappy with her campaign, with the racist remarks of some of her supporters. However, I was unhappy with Obama's vague rhetoric and skeptical of his commitment to the progressive principles and policies most important to me.

I have been a feminist for almost 56 years, since the nun preparing me for Holy Communion when I was 7 explained that the boys went up first, because they could be priests and were closer to God. Having five younger brothers increased my commitment to feminism every day. I was very active in the feminist movement of the late 60s and 70s. I was delighted to have four daughters; I am fiercely proud of the brilliant, dedicated, loving women they have become. As they start to have children, I am deeply discouraged that they face the same dilemmas combining careers and childrearing as I did.   Read More »

With this blog the 100,000 point level has been broken, and even though the points do not covert to cash they do show how much work you can do. If I the dial up boy can top 100,000 point level in six months then I know everyone else can do it too, so the more all of you use this website the more our right to freedom of speech is exercised. Please contribute your efforts as much as possible here, and rock n’ roll this country back to a democracy that we can all be truly proud to say is the best.

From my understanding there is a need for poll watchers needed for the polls on 02-05-08, and if you are interested you need to contact either me to pass it on to the person that got me into it here in Missouri, or you should contact someone locally ASAP. I do not know which states are in need of poll watchers, or exactly which polling places need them, but I will post a list of states below that are voting on 02-05-08.

 

Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah

 

Just look back over the last twenty years there has never been a single month with deflation, and millions of Americans do not make a penny more in wages really.
