From Translator: My Friend is a Slob! 20110302

Like many of you, I have been keeping up with the activity at the Madison, Wisconsin capitol.  Whilst I have been sympathetic to the folks bivouacking there, it got very personal to me a little while ago.

A Kossack, her name to be not reported here, sent me a Happy Birthday email complete with a picture of her in the rotunda!  This person and I go back several years, only online and always platonic, but I love her very much in a political way this evening.

She is a fine example of what this community represents.  I almost always back off from political posts, because others do it much better than I could hope to try.

State Senator Glenn Grothman (R) has called the folks who came to stay in the State Capitol “slobs”.  I maintain that he is the one that is not using proper decorum, and his attitude is quite usual for the extreme right wing.  HE is the slob, not our friend.

I do not have a whole lot more to say, except to reiterate that she puts her presence where it is required.  I cherish her not only for our friendship, but also for her convictions.

If she chooses to reveal herself, then fine.  If not, I have not betrayed our confidence since I never mentioned anything about her except her gender and her political activities, with no personally identifiable information.

I just wanted to point out that many in this community are not like me.  Some of us actually take action, and I respect her very much for that.  We all could take a lesson from her.

Please, if she reveals who she is, shower her with tips and recommendations.  Thanks!

Warmest regards,

Doc
