WELCOME! Good to have you here.


You have power. Use it wisely. Make it matter.

At Lucy Left you're encouraged to leave comments, keeping this request in mind: Say what you mean and mean what you say, just don't say it mean. Lucy's not a fan of vitriol. This is a place to find information and opinion, a place to have a laugh now and then and to feel less alone in the political madness.

Be well, speak up for what is right and true (even if your voice shakes), and come back soon!

Checking In

Only a phrase from childhood adequately describes how I've missed writing at Lucy:  I'm "'bout to bust" to get back!  Tendonitis has flared every time I've thought it had healed enough to spend more time with Happy, my laptop .   I just can't write more than a few sentences without paying the pain piper.  So . . . 

 

A friend in Texas is excited.  It looks like state Senator Wendy Davis will be running for Governor in the Lone Star State!  God knows it's the only positive news out of Texas for a long time, especially for women.

 

The horrible Navy Yard shootings, the lack of action on gun reform in our political "system,"  our political system itself, the stunning determination of House Republicans to "defund" Obamacare at all costs, and yet another Benghazzi hearing in the House today (Hearing = trying to tarnish Hillary).  Plenty to write about. 

 

Will remind you (and myself) to keep the faith and rev up your personal power.  Make all the calls and sign every petition you can on whatever issues are burning in your belly right now.  Help ProjectXXSC recruit progressive women to serve on South Caroilna's boards and commissions and please join Moms Demand Action on Gun Sense in America; there's a  chapter in SC, and  I'm  a proud member.

 

 I'll be back at full speed soon, so don't jump ship on Lucy yet.  Missing you lovable Libs!
