Political QRM on Twitter
RSS FeedSo, it is done. Donald Trump is now the 45th President of the United States. I, for one, am pleased and over the moon at his taking the oath of office.. However, it is not the case with many women out there. As I write this, women are marching in DC, and many cities throughout
This one is far too important for me to copy, paste, edit, etc in a document format, (or two). I NEED to get this OUT THERE. NOW. Pardon my “sp” and “gr” errata, please! I am already hearing from many quarters that families and friends are throwing hope, faith and charity out the window, along
The intensity of last night has drained me deeply. I’ve been “up & around” for a couple of hours, but I’ve been writing two different essays for Political-qrm and Minds, to which this is only a prelude. I will be recording a post election podcast w/ cugina Ann Marie at some time today, which will

Governor Paul LePage, (R-ME). I’m writing this as partly an essay and partly an open letter. I’ll leave it to you folks to decide which parts are which. I’m good like that. I have no trouble in taking my governor, (yes, I can call him that. I voted for him twice), to task when he’s
AT the decidedly possible risk of sounding “Libertarian”, I’m going to SAY this rather than search out or create another meme. I don’t care WHERE you pee. I don’t care WHO you marry / union with. I don’t care WHAT you do to YOUR body. I only care about what you do to me and
Many people are “into” genealogy these days, hoping to find a king or queen, a prince, a famous general or a pope….I found out my family has been peasants since at least the 13th century! Hey, now, I’m okay with it. Really, I am. There’s NO dishonor in being a peasant. Unless you become one
Lou and Ann Marie had planned this podcast to deal with the announcement of Mike Pence as Trump’s VP, but the Nice attack put that on hold; for Trump and us. And still in the middle of mourning and identifying the bodies, the French Prime Minister Manuel Valls states “France will have to live with
