Sticking around

Getting ready to put my Harris/Walz bumper sticker on my car and got a bit wistful about removing the Biden/Harris stickers. So, I decided to leave them where they are. It's a van, lots of window space. I'll put the Harris/Walz stickers a bit forward. And I'm adding another one above the original stickers:

Registering a memory

With all the reminders to check our voter registration, I can't help remembering the times when we went out into the community to register people to vote. Even though I can no longer participate on that level I cherish the memories, one day in 2012 in particular. I shared that experience here at that time:"


We set up our table in the library, just inside the entrance. Voter registration.

As we were beginning to wonder if we'd get any takers, a thirty-something fellow approached the table with his two kids, a boy about 5 and a girl about 3. In broken English this young daddy asked if this is where he can register to vote. He broke out in a brilliant smile when we answered, "Yes".

"I am new," he said, "and I have been so excited to vote!"

While he was filling out the form, his son came and stood by me and pointed to himself. "Ali," he said. "Hello, Ali!" I answered. He laughed and jumped up and down, then pointed at me. "I teached you!" he boasted. "I teached you Arabic!"

"Well you certainly did, Ali!" His smile lit the whole room.

Daddy finished with the paperwork. "I am registered?"

"Yes."

"Thank you! Thank you!" as he and the kids took their books and movies to the check-out desk.

On their way out of the library they passed by our table, and once more Ali pointed and grinned, "I teached you!"


Oh, little Ali, you have no idea. And, yes, you certainly did.

Thank you.

Okay, one day after the debate, a question:

Can someone please explain TFG's comment about Biden and money from the wife of Moscow's mayor? He buried it in the middle of a bunch of mumbled accusations, but he did put it out there. Anybody?

56-year-old rural white guy in Boebert's district

Posting this here because taking back the House benefits the whole country. Not to mention that booting a skanky embarrassment would be so very satisfying. As Vic mentions, the district is deep red. But he also points out that Calvarese, unlike Boebert, is homegrown, and she could possibly persuade some of those CD4 republicans to break with tradition and put country before party. If you can help, please do. And thank you!
