Full Circle?

The hope of a secure and livable world lies with disciplined nonconformists who are dedicated to justice, peace and brotherhood. -Martin Luther King Jr.



Because nothing worthwhile in this country has ever happened unless somebody, somewhere stood up when it was hard; stood up when they were told – no you can’t, and said yes we can. -Barack Obama

VICTORY!!!

Thank God. Thank God. I'm definitely crying tears of joy right now. President Obama. Damn right.

Doing My Civic Duty

I voted this morning. It felt good to flex my democratic muscles. I am a Democrat, and I vote the party line most of the time. Being in Florida, there isn't much other choice. The Republicans are all such...REPUBLICANS. I did vote Obama, simply because I think he will be better for the country's bottom line, and because I think he has some good ideas on how to turn things around. I'd like for him to have a chance to implement those ideas. The only Republican I voted for, in fact, was my boss, who is running opposed for her position for the first time, um, ever, I think.

I'm now waiting for the results to start coming in. Can't wait to see what happens. Because, no matter WHAT happens, we can be sure of one thing: there will no longer be a Bush in the White House, come January. And that's something we can all be happy about.
