This newsletter explains brilliantly why they (you know who they are) will come for our votes, if they get their way. I'd rather have my vote than a dam gun any day.

This newsletter explains brilliantly why they (you know who they are) will come for our votes, if they get their way. I'd rather have my vote than a dam gun any day. While I'm on a roll here I'm going to also express my very great displeasure at idiots assuming that because I'm retired and over 65 I have no interest or stake in abortion rights, or good public schools, or the welfare of other people's kids.
AMEN, sister! I am over 70, more interested, more invested, and more willing than EVER to discuss, sacrifice as needed, and pull my weight to make sure my granddaughters and their needs, their RIGHTS, are not trampled on like ours were for so many years.
I am kicking sand in the face of 84 (December 23 - they hanged Hideki Tojo on my 8th birthday) and like most of us geezers, I KNOW what a good education is and what it can do for the youngsters. The Republicans are leading this country down a road that has no good end - ignorance is slavery. As Mark Twain once said, 'The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read.' We care about this experiment in representative democracy and the people in it. We care about how our kids and grandkids do in the future. Our nation, to paraphrase a Native American saying, was not inherited from our ancestors - it is borrowed from our children.....and we have an obligation to leave it in good condition for them.
