My political stance is I am a loyal patriot of the Constitution and Bill of Rights. I am a person whose convictions and pessimism drive my thought invoking others to think, and enjoy some political debate. I like truth even if it doesn't set you "free" in this US of A any longer. I am a liberal. I do a bit of painting mostly in Acrylic and water color. I do a bit of poetry writng mostly inspired by tragic thought. I speak straightforwardly and don't plan on changing. I support Peace across the board--world. I am not religious but in the sense of the term, I would call myself a Deist. I am heterosexual and I am peachy white. My ancestors come from Wales, England, France and Scotland. I am French on maternal side and Scotch Irish and English(British) on my paternal side. I am a registered Democrap; however, I am a disgruntled one at this time with the Democratic party. As a double major of sociology & communications in college, I graduated with a Pre-law degree but didn't go onto Law School for health and financial reasons. I went to college at age 38 and graduated at 43 yo. I raised 3 children as a single parent for the most of those yrs and I live in a right wing (theocratic mindset) state of Montana. I have been a loyal member of OPED and fan of Rob Kall since 2006 or 7 so I AM NOT A NEW member. My health got bad, as my picture shows; I stay in PJ's often all day! That's my beloved dog, Jack, in the pic with me, but he died (murdered by 11 yo girl) in July, 2014. We were always together. He was a Parson's Jack Russell with a side of Scnauzer. As you can see, Jack is much stronger and better looking than me. :-) RIP Jack.
