Please go easy on Nobody. I think this is her first attempt at article posting.

Sorry, I thought "Activists Arrested at White House" qualified.

Hey! You're a redhead, and that's a blonde comment.

Well, somehow I gained 35 lbs. on my rolling hunger strike. :-(

I strike between 2AM and 10AM. :-)

I have posted "a couple" articles along the way.

What was the problem?

Not enough trolls & we need to hit on OUR good guys?

Actually Takoma, I have been posting a number of articles recently for DIANA IREY, but they all get posted under "Extended News"

I automatically checked that category, then spotted the "Activism, protests....." and checked it as well.

Sorry to all!

She sure sure does look chunky for the 25th day of a hunger strike. If these ladies want to bring back the 60's and 70's lets bring back the 70's phrase plastic.

PLASTIC:
One who may look like a hippy but under the surface is vain and has capitalistic tendencies.
A weekend hippy.
Fake

I'm constantly amazed at how much these idiots get away with! That stupid Medea person has been bodily removed from the Capitol 3 times now--and yet I'll bet that she shows up again and is admitted --and hauled out once more when she causes a disturbance.

I wonder how many of us could get away with that!

Since I know that was a rhetorical question, I will not attempt to answer it. ;*)

"I have to have faith," said Wilson, a former shrimp boat captain-turned-environmental activist"


Reminds me of the old joke about the blindfolded wood inspector

I joined the NRA this year!

We're all better off if you join the GOA.
