Come Hear Granny

 


Dina is an old friend from way back in our sailing days. Dina and Bill welcomed the Kadizzles and their kids into the sailing culture on Lake Sakakawea. Since Dina had two wonderful girls and so did we it was a perfect match. Bill has gone on to the ship in the sky, but Dina is still very active in politics. Dina and Bill were hard core Republicans. Dina claims to be a Republican, but if she is, it is in the old tradition of reasonable people. Admit it or not Dina has seen the light and the evil of the Trump mentality. 

Dina and a couple friends started a group that got nicknamed the Badass Grandmas. They took on the lobbyist, the oil companies, and the coal companies, all the bad guys. No one thought they had a chance with their quest for an ethics commission. With an initiated measure they won. Now there are starving legislators in North Dakota that cannot get a free lunch from the rich guys. The poor legislators cannot get free trips or anything. Go Dina. Of course the Republicans in North Dakota are incensed and Dina is not welcome at the party anymore. 

So today at noon at the Democratic Headquarters Dina will explain how three old ladies beat a nest full of hard right lickspittles. Everyone is welcome, and that includes the Hoopleheads. The Democrats are inclusive, no attempt to keep anyone out because of their sexual preference, free speech, or right to vote. Come on down at 12 noon and maybe some progress can be made in Arizona to get off of dead center and move to a place where children can be educated not indoctrinated, old people can have economic security, and money can be spent for health care not war. We are talkin today, Wednesday, March 8. Democratic headquarters is in the mall by the Buffalo Bar.
