It was during the great Health care clusterfuck, when the baggers first went insane.

Norm Dicks was the speaker, IIRC....Might be hazy on that account- - you and your SO went inside to hear the speakers and I stayed outside looking for gun toting tea baggers.

Alas, there were none.

But there WERE foaming at the mouth unarmed teabaggers in an amazing phalanx.

I had a great time. None wanted to speak to me any further, after about three minutes of conversation....

Almost got punched by one who I told to hand over his Medicare card if he really thought government run healthcare was socialism.

Good times.
