Favorite Quote:
Nothing human is alien to me.
Karl Marx
I think the Israeli pogroms against the Palestinian people paid for with our tax-dollars is an outrage. I have no confidence in Barack Obama to do the right thing about anything after he sat in shameful silence while the Israeli killing machine rampaged through Gaza.
In my spare time I like to play Scrabble, fish, camp, cross-country ski, garden, read, write.

I enjoy blogging... hope you check out my blog.
