Let's Meet Our Good Pal:
fempatriot
Educator, writer, library clerk. Semi-retired. Independent voter, Constitutionalist, pet charities: several for animal welfare. Have two grown children. Some of my heroes: Uri Avnery, founder of Gush-Shalom (www.gush-shalom.org/) Mordechai Vanunu (blew the whistle on Israel's secret nuclear weapons plant), Michael Collins Piper, writer: "Final Judgment," "The High Priests of War," "The Golem," "The New Jerusalem,"...I believe educators (teachers) should be paid much more. Like nurses and doctors--teachers also save lives. The 14th Amendment (used to make "anchor babies") should be repealed--it was written in 1867 for children of freed slaves--not of illegal aliens.
