I will likely stay until Skinner moves the board into GE mode, should Hillary have the nom.

Until then, I will stand up against neo-liberalism on DU.

are to the right of the conservative party that was in power the year I was born. Pretty incredible. I just can't go along with that anymore. No animosity towards those who want to keep it that way. It's just not for me.

berniegirl. DU has been my home away from home since 2003 but this primary season has changed something that I don't think can be undone.

LGBT right in existence. Ask your black friends which era had more conservative politicians. Ask your gay ones.

I like science and energy. Not in the politics much anymore. I'm generally a happy person that loves people. I figure we can communicate at different levels.

I'm a die hard progressive but there is more to the story than that. We have disabilities in my nuclear family but they aren't inabilities. I tried my best to provide a cushion but much of that went down in 2008 so I've had to start again at an advanced age. Whether you agree with my politics or not, you can still find inner strength in the song. Take care.

addicted to this site and come just to see what is happening now. I'm over at JPR.org but I suspect when I am good and sick of it here I will find it much more peaceful there.
