Democracy gave me pinkeye...
Edited on Fri Sep-24-04 01:19 AM by Melodybe
So here I am fighting the good fight, talking the truth, working my weekly John Kerry table, and now I have pink eye.

I think that it is because I shake the hand of everyone that comes to my table, I am happy to introduce my self to democrats and republicans, germs be damned!

I must have shaken 100 hands on Wednesday. A handful of them were republican, and thats fine with me. I honestly think that we should try to be as loving and as accepting as we can possibly bare to republicans.

They are hurting themselves more than they could ever even know. Plus Bushco is laughing at them behind their backs, it is so sad.

Well back to the pinkeye, I think some repub's sadness must have rubbered off on me and this was the result.

Note to self, wash hands even more than usual.

So my love of democracy and my respect for mankind has brought heavey burdens upon me, and I feel kinda like Jobe. But hey, if getting pink eye is the price of getting to someone to question Bush, and it makes the election that much harder for them to steal, then its worth it, even if my eye is all puffy and gross, it is worth it

However, things would be even easier if Scott Baio would just leave me alone.

Democracy gave me pinkeye:shrug:

3. Yeah, but be discreet.
Didn't Dick Cheney let people see him sanitizing his hands after a session of handshaking with the great unwashed masses?

I'll have to be mindful get up and wash my hands once or twice while I'm at the registration table tonight.

4. honestly...
hand sanitizing is as much for their protection as it is yours. You don't want to in turn spread it to the *next* people who shake hands with you.

One thing I won't fault Cheney for is hygiene.

2. Pinkeye from a Repub gets you a Purple Heart, especially in Oxford.
Seriously, you're a hero. I mean that.
