If you're not a "Tea Party" supporter, you may want to read this -- and vote in Mid-Terms.

Side note: I took a friend to the emergency room a few weeks back for a badly dislocated finger. (We're talking movie special effect-looking dislocation.)

Bills SO FAR for numbing the area and popping the finger back in place? $4600. Before insurance.

Anyone still think we don't need health insurance reform? Anyone really want the republicans to take back control of all the committees in the Senate and House -- and REALLY slow down or freeze legislation beyond what has already happened?

I am getting most irritated with the newsies stating at every opportunity that the Repubs will sweep the coming elections. What a way to discourage people from voting for the opposition by telling them at every opportunity that their vote can't possibly count.
I am almost at the heave-a-brick-at-the-radio point.

This is why I posted this -- I want to remind people of all beliefs, as I always try to, that they must exercise their right to vote. Even living in the hill country, where sometimes all I can do is make sure I get a deeply conservative rep as opposed to a CRAZY rep -- still -- my vote was useful!
