What would Thomas Jefferson Do?



I believe that this picture originated from BBC News. 

"Stop telling us to accept him. You do not have an argument worthy enough to shut the rest of the planet up. The ENTIRE planet stood up to tell you that."

"I listened as they called my President a Muslim.
I listened as they called him and his family a pack of monkeys.
I listened as they said he wasn't born here.
I watched as they blocked every single path to progress that they could.
I saw the pictures of him as Hitler.
I watched them shut down the government and hurt the entire nation twice.
I watched them turn their backs on every opportunity to open worthwhile
dialog.
I watched them say that they would not even listen to any choice for Supreme
Court no matter who the nominee was.
I listened as they openly said that they will oppose him at every turn.
I watched as they did just that.
I listened.
I watched.
I paid attention.
Now, I'm being called on to be tolerant.
To move forward.
To denounce protesters.
To "Get over it."
To accept this...
I will not.
I will do my part to make sure this great American mistake becomes the
embarrassing footnote of our history that it deserves to be.
I will do this as quickly as possible every chance I get.
I will do my part to limit the damage that this man can do to my country.
I will watch his every move and point out every single mistake and misdeed
in a loud and proud voice.
I will let you know in a loud voice every time this man backs away from a
promise he made to them.
Them. The people who voted for him.
The ones who sold their souls and prayed for him to win.
I will do this so that they never forget.
And they will hear me.
They will see it in my eyes when I look at them.
They will hear it in my voice when I talk to them.
They will know that I know who they are.
They will know that I know what they are.
Do not call for my tolerance. I've tolerated all I can.
Now it's their turn to tolerate ridicule.
Be aware, make no mistake about it, every single thing that goes wrong in
our country from this day forward is now Trump's fault just as much as they
thought it was Obama's.
I find it unreasonable for them to expect from me what they were entirely
unwilling to give."

It's only taken Trump 10 Days to fire his acting Attorney General...not 5 Years like Nixon. That means it should only take a few Months to Impeach him.


#IMPEACHTRUMPNOW 
#BANBANNON #ENEMIESOFTHESTATE 
#CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
#EMOLUMENTSCLAUSE

 Do some research and ask yourself....How does The Emoluments Clause of the American Constitution Apply To Donald Trump?


He's hiding something from the American people and it's time to find out what it is. Call your Senators and Congressmen and Women and demand that proceedings begin immediately. 

US SENATE (202)224-3121 
US CONGRESS (202)225-3121
 

The Revolution will not be Televised.......

See you all in the streets......

15 Minutes a Day to defend America







I began this page in memory of my mother. She loved the group Patriots for Change, which was a small but mighty group that emerged during the Bush years, but they seem to have disappeared from existence. I buried her with her Barack Obama button...she was working on his campaign when she died. So I'm going to see if I can bring that dream back to life.

I learned from my mother very early on that if you didn't have fifteen minutes every day for at least four days a week to spend protecting your democracy, that you probably needed to come very close to losing it to appreciate it even more.

We are very close..closer than I've seen in my lifetime yet I see this as a cause for optimism. We've got a lot of people really motivated. Frankly? We don't have any more time to freak out. Everyday brings us another Executive order and closer to another trade war or even worse to contemplate, another World War. 

Trump himself has been described as a malignant narcissist but Steve Bannon who seems to be controlling the Presidents every thought and penstroke is a masterful sociopath. He must be removed from office as well. 


That being said , now is the time for action. I discovered long ago that getting into action and being unreasonable is the key to feeling better about whatever is happening around you. And, you've got to get a life too. So pick three things to work on fifteen minutes a day, 4 days a week. Fifteen minutes....that's it. I know that you've got the time. Then go about your way being happy..living your life.

That's the best revenge.

Here are my three....

Women's Rights. Freedom of Speech and the Press. Animal and Environmental Rights. Oh..and these are on top of my personal goals to #ImpeachTrump and #BanBannon


What are yours? Please let me know so that I can support you!

Why Pro-Choice America United?


As my new Facebook friend Rebecca just said....I'm pissed, I'm motivated and I'm ready to Kick Ass!"
As the attacks on Womens Rights (not to mention gay rights and all rights!) accelerate in this country there are many of us who have had quite enough. We're looking for unity. There are so many wonderful groups out there fighting for our rights but they're under attack. Planned Parenthood Northeast Ohio is scheduled for a vote to defund in our state senate very soon. We've got to organize under one umbrella to make our voices heard and stop this madness!

We're Grassroots....no cash attached so we don't have to be defunded. We can be more powerful! So as of this morning I'm going out to make a teeshirt and all it's going to say is Ask me about Pro-Choice America United...www.prochoiceamericaunited.com and maybe on the back it's going to say I'm Pissed, I'm Motivated and I'm ready to kick Ass!

Thank you Rebecca Murray Strong for what could be the most powerful slogan for this new fledgling movement yet!

You can do the same and send me pictures so I can post them. The beauty of the 60's was in it's artistry creativity! I don't care what they look like, we might as well have some fun..I just care that the message is the same! (and if you wish to put this website in it that's fine too!) Make a poster, make a flyer....whatever works just keep the name the same! Put them up! Anywhere, Everywhere! It's the brand that we can all unite under!

Lets see if we can spread this message all across the country! Tell all of your friends!

Don't know where this cute pic above actually came from, but it's quickly become the face of our pain here in Ohio.....so go to ecards .com if you can and show them some love!
