what if the HE is a SHE?



I'm also thinking that we need to create a post about giving DU some bucks, as Skinner and EarlG have given us

I am now donating 20 a month from what I get from SSI.I am one who would be screwed by Romney and Ryan with Medicaid and
Food stamps.

I donate
5 to Obama
5 to DCCC
5 to DSCC
5 to Claire McCaskill

Checking on Wiki Obama endorsements McCaskill Is only Missouri Dem apart from Emanuel Cleaver to publicly endorse Obama.While
I have had Issues with her she Isn't a Lieberman and she Is best we can get In Missouri.Here In Missouri Liberals are minority.

Little chance my local Democrats will ever get elected so I invest my support dollars in out of state races where its likely to make a real difference.

DeFazio has the same insane wacko, Art Robinson, running against him again. But DeFazio will win, maybe by a landslide. We love Pete!
