Free Republic

Today Oct 2nd, my wife and I went to Seattle to see my mom for her 95th birthday. After a few miles as we drove to the ferry, I noticed something, actually the lack therof. There were no Obama stickers anywhere, not even on Toyota Priuses ! I became obsessed in finding how long this would last, so I looked at every single car we passed. I even looked in the rearview mirror when possible, and at parked cars on the roadside. I did not see a single one, even when we got to the ferry parking lot 20 miles...

I was waiting for a bus this afternoon right next to the biggest grocery store around here, deep in the liberal heart of South Whidbey Island WA. I waited about 15 minutes, and while I waited I noticed something seriously missing. Something which nearly 1/4 of all cars had just a few days ago. It was John fk'n Kerry bumperstickers! There's still hope for our republic. Steve B.

I just received a call from my sister who says the manager of this establishment is refusing to allow employees to leave to vote (supposedly due to a shortage of personnel). Although I can understand a shortage of warm bodies, I believe this to be vote supression, deliberate or not. I'm going to drive over to get the manager's name and the exact address of the place (the online directory does not list addresses)....

This is from a friend of mine. SM -------- The following article was published last week in the local paper. My father and brother are both people that have lived very difficult and challenging lives, and yet, have risen far above their trials. As indicated earlier, I wish I could say that I inherited that gene. I am very proud to have a father and a brother that have exceeded so many obstacles and have lived such full and complete lives, despite their challenges. They continue to be an inspiration to me! Please take a few minutes and help them....
