Anita Garcia is in OK tonight fighting the good fight - NOLA's election
My better half is in Oklahoma tonight planning resistance to the next Republican rigged election with national heat from the NAACP. They're setting up a response to New Orleans' fixed gig. I'm mighty proud of her!

Check her web page here: http://www.defiancezone.com/PeaceInPink.php

I'm doing the Mr. Mom thing as best I can with a seven year old hustler with a yen for ice cream, pizza, and late nights. Bad weirdness on the Lakefront for sure.

As I get news from National, I'll post accordingly.

Peace soon and ONWARD!

3. Wouldn't you rather be in OK dealing with election rigging?
Or, is this just my PTSD from raising 7 yr olds.

:kick: for Anita and for Keseys Ghost, an amazing team.

4. Actually, I'm enjoying the Barbie Doll extravaganza....
She gets away with a lot more with me....make up, dress up...a lot of theater going down here.

Believe it or not, I'm the permissive one.

6. We have a very sharp line in the sand....
I do the peace activism and she handles civil rights.

That way, no toes get stomped.

It's worked for us for many years....

7. We have a similar. He's funny on stage and I catapult
the propaganda under the cover of his humor.

If toes get stomped, they won't be his. Come to think of it, I'm waiting to hear Anita Garcia's version. :)

14. Anita just called....the players are in place
Says she's blown away by the activist credentials in her midst.

Felt her excitement and hope.

21. Can you imagine someone who would travel to a state
on purpose to deal with election rigging?

I think that's amazing.

22. Just got a call....
They are early in the agenda. Nature of the direct action, level of defiance, civil disobediance, if any, still at play....

Annie says the following will form the basis of the flier to be drafted and distributed tonight:


STOP ILLEGAL New Orleans ELECTION!

N.O. Election
N.O. Vote
N.O. Justice

NAACP PROTEST ACTION

Tuesday

March 28, 2006

Baton Rouge

STATE CAPITOL

12 NOON

NAACP Says:

Stop the Illegal Election

Protect the 1965 Voting Rights Act






more later...
