Hello, I'm new here [View all]

My name is Linda but I go by gwheezie {one of the young fellas who is a regular patient where I work said to me one day, grammawheezie when are they going to make you retire and I said when you stop smoking crack, so from then on my name here has been grammawheezie}. I'm in my 60's, live in where the hell am i, virginny and female. I've been a liberal since I 1st heard of my political hero Shirley Chisholm back in the day. I am probably fairly centrist however passionately believe that left needs to keep pushing some of us old farts back to our roots. I hope I contribute something worthwhile to any discussions here.
