EXCELLENT!!!

The way you treat the least of these...

April 2, 2019

Yeah I get that.

Totally get that. But I still hold onto the “this will eventually end. Even the Roman Empire and the Third Reich and the dinosaurs and every “Thing That Would Not Die” didn’t last forever.

I’m getting mighty tired of waiting, though. Gotta admit.

Damn straight we have to control the narrative!!!

I wish the Dems would put George Lakoff on staff to cover our desperate needs for shrewd messaging!!!!!!!!!!

Lock 'em Up!

I am, too. The climate crisis is my Number One issue.

And pretty much my main and just-about-only issue.

Years ago I was saying that all the jobs in the world won’t mean squat if you’re gagging and wheezing and getting sick just by breathing and ingesting the toxins and pollutants in the environment on the way to work.

All the tax cuts and health care coverage in the world won’t mean squat if you’re choking and dying because of life on a poisoned and overheating planet.

If we disrupt the food chain and decimate the forests and poison the oceans and cover every spare inch with trash and litter and plastic shit and non-biodegradables, all the PAST-the-11th-hour mitigation efforts won’t mean squat.

All the cows in the world won’t save us.

The climate crisis supersedes ALL.

Unless, perhaps, you have another planet that can sustain life as we know it, to which we all can realistically evacuate.

And WAS it the back of her head? Or the top of her head?

From what I’ve seen, heard, and read, she’s claimed both.

This just smells fishy.

April 1, 2019

I share that suspicion.

No kidding.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
