It's August and my blogs one year anniversary! YAY!
It's been a great year, lots of ranting and raving, lots of arguing, lots of laughs and even some tears.
I started out with a home and family type of blog a few years ago but when I tried talking politics my friends got very quiet and didn't want to stick their toes in the water. I soon found out who my true friends were and decided to leave that blog and those rightwing housewives behind!
I don't know how it happened actually but I started out visiting only wingnut blogs. It started with a guy named Pappy from Texas. He was nice enough to me, he allowed me to comment and voice my opinion on his Obama bashing posts. One day I commented on the hideous cruel remarks from Alan Keyes towards Obama and Pappy said he agreed with Keyes! What a revelation I had that day. That might have been the day I decided I needed to get away from the dark side of blogland and find my people! I think Mat/Papamoka may have been one of my first liberal friends here. He likes to call himself my "brotha from anotha motha", LOL! You won't believe this but lisa was one of his visitors before she started bugging me! So from Mat came Michael Boh, and Nancy, Grandpa Eddie, BJ, and the list goes on. Liberals are the nicest bunch of bloggers you will ever meet and it's been a huge pleasure getting to know all of you and making lasting friendships.
I'm not a writer(as you can tell!) but BJ told me to write like I'm sitting at the kitchen table talking to a friend. So here I am a year later still talking and you are actually listening, some of you even compliment me! LOL! I love everyone of you and am honored you read and follow my humble little blog!
When I read my archives it's unbelievable the amount of news that came out of this one short year. From Ted Kennedys death, the endless posts about the Public Option, will we get it or will we not.....and also the endless posts on the antics of the rightwing wacko nutjobs, will they say something insane or will they not, Yes! they never disappoint...... to the stories about war, and homelessness, joblessness, and oil gusher disasters.
I've had an amazing fun year, the next 6 with President Obama in the White House will be just as amazing with news stories that will get you fired up further strengthening your liberal philosophies.
So, march on my fellow liberal bloggers, don't allow the righties to silence your voices. Never give up the fight! I'll be here blogging, spreading truth, disputing the rightwing lies and distortions! AND if you want to put aside political talk sometime, visit me at my new blog.....
