What has Kadizzle done now? The accidental recruit.

Yesterday, the good people willing to fight the Hoopleheads for health care reform marched from Blue Cross headquarters to Senator Conrad's office. Kadizzle being an enterprising sort tried to recruit people all along the way. Fairly early in the march Kadizzle noticed a young woman with a back pack and asked her to join the march. At first Kadizzle thought perhaps the young lady just happened to be going the same way. However, as the march progressed, Kadizzle noticed the lady was tagging along. Thankful to have the participant Kadizzle decided to strike up a little conversation. It soon became apparent the the poor young girl had some serious learning disabilities. Kadizzle asked her how old she was. She stared off into the sky and said she didn't know. Then she remarked she was working on her GED. Suddenly it occurred to Kadizzle that this person had been carefully trained to walk from point A to point B where she was studying for her GED. Now, she was on camera with the news medial in front of the Federal building. Hopefully she found her way home. The amusing part will be when the care takers at the group home will see her on the news, and be befuddled how she came to join a march to advocate health care reform. Someone will be watching the news and say "Jesus, what in the hell is Mary doing there?" Well Mary fought for a good cause. It shows you don't have to be in rocket science to do the right thing, sometimes it happens accidentally.
