James Mackler in Knoxville
Posted by Gloria Johnson on Wednesday, June 28, 2017
Oreo is a politipup. She started last August 2016, campaigning for Evan McMullin. Then we went to the polls on election day to hold up our sign (the Hillary people were very nice and let us stand with them; I got one car honk). Then we went to the state house in Nashville to try to get the electors to vote for Evan (or Kasich…anyone but DJT). Then we did the Women’s March, the Tax March, the Science March, the Climate March, the Refugee March, the March for Truth, some AHCA protests, and tonight we were at an event for candidate James Mackler for US Senate. A loose dog came up and they got stuck on each other’s faces until a brilliant man came over and dumped a cup of water on their heads. No harm, no foul, not even a scratch (well, I have some scratches, possibly a bite on my foot and my index finger hurts from trying to pry mouths off each other, but I’ll live). 🙂
Here’s a link to the news story from yesterday; she’s mentioned in the first line: “That’s why it was important to her to join around 15 protesters — with a handful of small children and one three-legged dog.” http://www.knoxnews.com/story/news/health/2017/06/27/protesters-worry-losing-protection-against-lifetime-caps-pre-existing-conditions-under-senate-plan/430184001/
Look at our famous OREO showing everyone how being a Tripawd doesn’t slow her down at all!! She’s soooo pretty!! She’s looking good! 🙂
Gosh! So sorry about the doggy rumble and glad all dogs and humans are okay! Scary!!
Extra hugs to our famous sweet OREO!!!
Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle and Frankie too!
Hey guys it’s good to see you again! You and Oreo ROCK!
THANK YOU for being courageous and strong and taking action to fight for the progress we made over the last few decades, especially when it comes to health care. Jim and I will probably lose what crappy health care we currently have, and it scares the beejeezus out of us. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for fighting for it.
