And I respectfully disagree that it "sounds silly."

Anything that’s clever and can fit on a bumper sticker and takes his side when he’s under constant assault from the unfortunately-well-organized/funded/amplified will enhance the pushback. And I think we have to BIGTIME amplify the pushback. Any such effort by Dems so far seems awfully anemic to me.

We’re up against an enemy that uses verbal bombs and mace and brickbats. I’m tired of going into battle armed with nothing but feather dusters.

YES. We need to have his back!

Respectfully disagree. The bad guys are making him a target.

Aiming to weaken him so they can take the White House in 2024.

And like it or not, THAT comes down to one guy. And how we have that guy’s back.

Too many whiners complaining that he hasn’t done anything/enough/fill-in-the-blank-here. It’s a corrective aimed at THEM.

I wanted something with alliteration because it sticks in the mind Better.

And I think it’s worth aiming at wobbly Dems, and uncertain independents. Especially as we go into an election year where all the talk seems to be leaning against Democrats keeping control of the House and Senate.

Republicans don't want to help you.

Republicans don’t want to help anyone. (Except the rich who don’t need any help.)

That happened long ago, when she saw fit to marry him.

How ANY woman could want to do that is beyond me! WAY beyond me.

Yep. THIS is how you spread the message of Christ.

And it’s a lot more challenging and meaningful than just spewing a few Bible quotes. Talk is CHEAP, Marco, Margie-baby, and all your fellow modern day Philistines.

Anybody on our side who's wobbly.

And to the opposition - if you want to get into their face - or simply offer guidance toward improvement.

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.
