orange times


the greedy selfish continue....they are licking their chops on repeal of ACA for instant tax cuts.....wonder what they are gunna spend it on???

oh and let's not forget little marco polo rubio's attack on the affordable card act.......didn't get much attention other than rethugs railing about what a failure ACA was.....  

H.R. 676 - the Expanded and Improved Medicare for All Act - was introduced last night!   (the 24th)  This is representative John Conyers' 14th year introducing H.R. 676, which would establish a national single payer healthcare system. 51 co-sponsors have already signed on

 here is where you can find out if your rep is a co sponsor

i sent this message to my rep Suzan Delbene yesterday......

sure would be great to see your support for HR 676.  single payer is the best we can do...everybody in, nobody out!   let's pay our fellow citizens good wages to administer payment (accountable to us)  to our fellow citizens to provide the healthcare we all need (accountable to us)   overhead for administration drops to va and medicare numbers.....  we don't need middle men sucking money out for money changing......  healthcare is one of our commons and who better to provide for us than us.

→1/12/17 as i'm listening to news and commentary I have become very suspicious.....it feels like “don't look here, look over here, look over here........” I still keep coming back to, there is no hope until we get out the mirrors and start owning it. The evil that is done in our name and colored over is heartbreaking. And most of the time it's the juvenile “i know you are, but what am I .“ I am certainly not saying there aren't bad guys lurking everywhere but our behavior is everywhere from questionable to illegal and immoral. (attacking, invading and occupying Irag on march 20th 2003 based on lies....and the people who called Iraq home continue to pay....don't forget after the bullets and blood cease ...depleted uranium =genocide)..... and we continue to pledge allegiance and call ourselves the good guys. And I long to be the good guys. I don't believe good guys are made from competition and answering evil with evil. And this idea that we need to improve our nukes.....we still have by far the most and we are the only ones that have ever used them against other humans. And we should get back to torture....yikes!!! I can still see dead-eye dark side-dick watching in the basement....will there be tweets??? our karma is building. I will continue to try to find my path.

 Subjecting us all to the orange fascist is just like playing with fire on the 4th of july …...you are getting your rocks off and endangering all of us. The prevaricator in chief coming to an earth near you.

 1/9/17
 I am still struggling to understand how so many among us could put all of the earth in such peril. And there is not nearly enough dark humor to cover this one. I have a strong need to stand with the many in my community who get it. I am fucking pissed. Right now all I can do is try to really believe most of the rubes did not mean it. as we continue our race to the bottom less of us will be comfortable and distracted.(bread and circus) This morning I have the luxury of meeting with my tree board friend and talk about rain gardens. The city of Ferndale is interested.

 Oh and thank you Meryl Streep
