The TSA guy whispered to me "I like your shirt"
(I was wearing my ObamaMama shirt) Of course, I did get wanded because my hair pins set off the metal detector, but still.....

I went to a family wedding this week-end and showed my colors. I had a number of people give me a thumbs up. The groom was my nephew just out of the Army after serving in Iraq. He and his buddies and his sister (who also served in Iraq) are all fervent supporters of Obama. My brother said it was the first time in his entire life that he can go to the polls and vote for his first choice. I saw signs urging people to register to vote. One man said he wishes Obama could win, but he figures that Bush has fixed the election results already.

2. WOW, they're usually so cold and detached. Great to hear!
And I feel just like your brother, this is the first time I can vote in the general for my BFF favorite candidate!

3. Sounds like a great
wedding, hedgehog! I can't wait to wear mine out in public in this small town I live in..it won't be at work 'cause we can't be political anymore.

4. I often wear a "Dumb and Dumber" tee (Poppy and Junior)
in airports. The reception just blows me away.
