"Women, when it's time to vote . . .,

Michelle Williams: “Women, when it’s time to vote please do so in your own self-interest. It’s what men have been doing for years, which is why the world looks like them. But don’t forget we’re the largest voting body in the country. Let’s make it look more like us.” #Warren2020

And both were women. Actually 3 because another talked about choice. I think women have had it.

A lot of support for the fires too.

Toward the end, Joaquin Phoenix gave a good political speech too. There were a bunch of empty (bleeps) spots b/c he swore a lot, but it was a good one.

Russell Crowe wasn't there, but the speech he had (Aniston read it) was good too (climate change/Australia).

Listen to his podcast, Amped Up with Proud Resister, it is a great podcast.

It is on the Sexy Liberal Podcast Network with Stephanie, Frangela, Fugelsang, and others.

Now I am watching them do the rerun and Patricia is speaking....I get to see it! Yeah!!!

The host told everyone to skip the political speeches but I am glad a few snuck some in here and there (pro-choice, anti-Climate Change, anti-Iran War).

not because of her gender but because of her mind and integrity.

Honestly, change the gender in the statement above to male and see how galling it is.

Disagree, fine, I am not interested in trying to change anyone's mind, just sharing my own.
