When I signed on today I was greeted by not one but TWO ads for the Republican Gubernatorial candidate for my state of Pennsylvania. Why the FUCK are ads for Republicans running on DU? And Can anything be done to stop this? ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/DWilliamsamh/35 Sun, 23 May 2010 10:30:14 Before I post this please understand my sister is more conservative than I am, but not nearly as conservative as she thinks she is. When we actually talk about these issues we find much more common ground on the left side of the aisle, than on the right, and very few items where we must agree to di... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/DWilliamsamh/34 Tue, 23 Mar 2010 12:39:31 With the widely reported death of the former Ms. Venezuela due to complications of cosmetic surgery I was reminded once again about one of the laments I have about what our society does to women in terms of media images and the pressure to be what they see in magazines and on television and movies. ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/DWilliamsamh/33 Wed, 02 Dec 2009 15:50:42 Kucinich is a treasure.

Full disclosure: I posted something to the effect of Kucinich not ever being a realistic winner of the Presidency a little while back. In that post I praised Kucinich and posited that he is absolutely essential to the political discourse because he IS the conscience of ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/DWilliamsamh/32 Wed, 07 Oct 2009 08:51:58 [b]Subject:[/b] Your Reprehensible Behavior

The joint session was called by President Obama ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/DWilliamsamh/31 Wed, 09 Sep 2009 23:28:18 He's a nice pie in the sky side show. Not a real option. You know why? Not because "the media won't let him win." Because America ia NOT a liberal country. It is way more liberal that the past eight years, and even more liberal than most main stream Democrats...but not truly liberal Kucinich i... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/DWilliamsamh/30 Mon, 22 Jun 2009 23:56:28 From the New York Times ......

The bad news is the Republicans faked the Democrats out of their collective jock straps on this thing.

After all he's half white...." Or some variation thereof. Here's the answer:

2) In this country ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/DWilliamsamh/27 Sun, 28 Sep 2008 17:22:39 I just watched JOHN McCAIN give the opening remarks at the Clinton Global Initiative meeting today. #1 WHY the fuck is JOHN McCAIN giving the opening remarks at the CLINTON event, [u]at all??[/u]

2) Remembered the anger and resentment I felt the last time my ten year old lied to my face.
3) Remembered the language and tone I used including a few well place... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/DWilliamsamh/19 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 12:21:48 I find it "funny" that major news organizations (they'll all fall in line now) waited at least a year to actually tell the truth about a situation that has been ongoing with all the same earmarks for at least that time.
