Apologies

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: barbaraandchuck@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
My sincere apologies to all of you who are not straight. I inadvertently left off “sexual persuasion” from the statement in my “why I am voting for Kamala Harris” bbq post about protecting the rights of all Americans. It was a thoughtless oversight.

And it gives me the opportunity to highlight and celebrate love WHEREVER AND WITH WHOMEVER it is found.

The magic of love between 2 adults, no matter their gender, is one of the greatest joys of living. With it we soar in happiness and because of it we can trudge together through the hard times. And the energy of that love spreads to all around us, like ripples in a pond.

Every one of us has a deep and fundamental need to love and be loved.

Love is what matters. Let us celebrate that love.

Beyond the love between 2 adults, imagine what our world would be like if all of us behaved from a place of love. Imagine that our deep wounds are healed and hate, violence, greed and cruelty are replaced by kindness, respect, caring and cooperation.

It is my fervent vision and prayer that humans will eventually evolve to that place of love.

“You may say I’m a dreamer. But I am not the only one. I hope someday you will join us and the world will be as one.” John Lennon

Why I am voting for Kamala Harris

Why I am voting for Kamala Harris

She wants to protect our democracy by making sure all eligible Americans can freely vote without harassment or restrictions.

She wants to create solutions for our countries many problems and will work with willing people of all parties who also want to create solutions.

She wants to protect the fundamental rights of all Americans, regardless of class, race, ethnicity, religion, gender, and abilities.

She wants to make sure women have the right to control their own bodies.

She wants to protect the 2nd Amendment AND protect the lives of innocent school children and adults from being murdered by automatic weapons.

She strongly believes in the rule of law and that NO ONE is above the law.

She wants to make sure the super wealthy and corporations pay their fair share of taxes.

She wants to continue the successful work of making our economy stronger by providing living wage jobs, bringing down costs, reducing unemployment rates, and cutting taxes for working people and middle class Americans.

She wants to build 3 million affordable homes and rentals to stem the national housing crisis.

She wants to make affordable health care a right and not a privilege by strengthening and protecting the Affordable Care Act.

She wants to protect Social Security and Medicare.

She supports the bipartisan border security bill. She wants to secure our borders AND provide an earned pathway to citizenship.

She is committed to ending the opioid and fentanyl epidemic.

She is an effective international diplomat and is fit to be commander in chief.

I believe that Kamala Harris has the will, the intelligence, the temperament, the ability, and the commitment to “form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.”

Back in July, I was very discouraged that the upcoming presidential election was going to be a contest between two men older than my 78 years. Then it changed.
One old man stepped aside and the nomination fell to Kamala Harris. She practiced as a lawyer, but her only client has been “the people.”
I was impressed by her acceptance speech at the convention and even more by her book, “The Truths We Hold”. She stands for the directions this country needs to go, together.
I reviewed the book for the Pioneer (see link below). The review doesn’t really talk much about the book but it does include a big chunk of her Preface for the book. It fully convinced me to vote for Kamala and Tim.

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: ketzel.levine@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
While I like quite a few things about our Vice President – her vast experience as a lifelong public servant fighting for justice and fairness for her constituents; her poise, level-headedness and effectiveness as a politician; her agility and sophistication representing the US on the world stage; her ability to engage with an extraordinary range of people in a genuine, unpretentious way; her unabashed love of friends, family and country; and her positive, affirming views of America’s future – I am most moved by her commitment to safeguard the reproductive rights of women and in so doing, to save women’s lives.

These books will be the first to be placed on the new shelves. Titles must be available at the store and will need to be picked out by October 1st. You can email your choice to cloudandleaf@gmail.com (if you know we have it in stock) or just stop in. We are asking for a $10 donation when you choose a book.

All proceeds go toward the build-out costs, including multiple new bookcases, slatwall paneling, storage shelving, seating, et al. The expansion will offer more books, a larger children’s section, more card options, a big art supply section, and room for weekend events including music, author readings, writing workshops, art workshops, and book club meetings.

Crate and barrel baskets, and a wicker tray. all in excellent condition, very coastal. The baskets work great for anything, pantry, living room, kids room, laundry room, etc. The wicker tray looks lovely in a bathroom, guest room, with guest towels. Unfortunately, these baskets are very expensive at Crate and Barrel, so you get a deal because I do not need them. All for $25.00 cash please, can be picked up in Manzanita. Thank you!
