Pictures from the Harriet Island Labor Day Picnic

Not much of a crowd this year.
Not like last year when Edwards was there . . . the whole island was full of people then!
Garrison Keillor says we are seeing the effects of Republicanism in New Orleans: This is what "less government" gets you!

I did not know Wendy Wilde did her own singing in her bits. She did the Pawlenty/Beverly Hillbillies song and the Bachman Morality Minute theme (Bachman, Baa-aachman, Baa-aa-aachman).
She told the story of that nutcase clandestinely videotaping people on the light rail who seemed to be riding for free. So she shows it on the Senate floor. Oops, those folks had passes or transfers. Never mind. Crazy bitch.

1. Great pictures. I forgot about it or we would have gone. Damn.

2. Two comments:

1) Michelle Bachman needs to get a life.

2) Great to see Mila there. They're an offshoot of the Ethnic Dance Theatre, which I sang with over twenty years ago.

4. Last time I saw Bachmann was on KARE-11 at the fair

last week. She was highlighted as being the winner of a butter sculping contest. It was a 5pm or 6pm show where they had the Pawlentys rubbing elbows with the crowd live on air.

KARE-11 had 2-3 shows during the Fair where the openly plugged GOP canidiates with not a DFLer to be found anywhere near the camera.
