About Me:

I:
am a social worker;
am a member of Veterans for Peace, Disabled American Veterans, and Vietnam Veterans Against the War;
am an island singer;
always question authority yet love uniforms (sigh...);
have some really cool tattoos, and
am tired of the Republican BS that is being spun every day, as well as the lack of a cohesive Democratic response.
