Joe Monahan appears to think that I am in a gang or to be more specific Congressman Martin Heinrich’s gang. Leave it to Joe to not know the story or to even get it straight from the start. It would appear that Joe does not know much when it comes to the Democratic Party and I know that he knows very little about me.
I did not need to ask for help or information from Congressman Heinrich or his staff when it comes to finding out information on Jon Barela. To be clear on the matter I and the Congressman or his staff did not even talk about the matter. All I had to do was just a little research. Maybe Joe should try that every once in awhile...Wonder what would happen if a full-time professional reporter stated to dig into Mr. Barela’s background. Something about where there is smoke something else follows.
I should be nice but I want honest elected official to represent this state and sometimes that means pointing out a person’s flaws in as nice a way as possible when they are considering a run for a public office. Just ask Congressman Martin Heinrich how hard I was on him when he decided to run for congress. The difference is that Martin went the extra mile to prove to me and the voting public that he was honest and sincere about being a great public servant for our state. I must admit that it took time for him to win me over but in the end I am glad he did because we now have a congressman that cares about the voting public in Congressional District One and I am more than happy to blog about his activities.
My advice to Joe Monahan is to get his right leaning fox news style views straight before he publishes a story that includes my name or my blog. Oh, and I also think Joe needs to learn how to play nice with female media people. I am not the first woman to find fault with his views.

Quotes:
Senator Edward M. Kennedy (Teddy)
"For all those whose cares have been our concern, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives and the dream shall never die."
The O'Coilean (O'Collins)
'A great host with whom it is not fortunate to contend, the battle-trooped host of the O'Coileain."
Abraham Lincoln
"With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations."
From NPR Radio
"Rosa sat so Martin could walk.
Martin walked so Obama could run.
Obama ran so our children can fly!"
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"I awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new."

"Friendship is loving someone no matter what is in their past. It is accepting the fact that they are human and that they have made their share of mistakes over a life time. Trust is being able to tell your friend the most private secret knowing that they will not judge you. A life is not lived well without that one true and trusted friendship."
Mary Harris "Mother" Jones
"My job is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable"
Albert Einstein
"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind."
Will Rogers
"I don't belong to an organized party--I'm a democrat."
President John F. Kennedy, Democrat
“If by a ‘liberal’ they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people—their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties—someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a ‘Liberal,’ then I’m proud to say I’m a ‘Liberal.’”
Martin Luther King Jr.
"Faith is taking the first step, even when you don't see the whole staircase."
Lora O'Brien
"All I can do is share one person's experiences on her own path, not tell you how to walk yours. If a guru is what you are looking for, find another! If I am a teacher, it is because I am already walking the path that you, Dear Reader, may wish to be on. Although each of us must make our own way, I can put up signs at least, and make the way slightly less hazardous for those who wish to walk a similar path."
C. S. Lewis
"Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives."
