From my sister in San Diego: |
|
She manned the helpline today. An entire office of lawyers called asking how they could help.
A 64 year old woman voting for the first time.
Too many volunteers. Sent them to other offices.
Restaurants donating food to feed the volunteers.
People offering to entertain the voters waiting on line.
That's what my sister told me. What I told her? The last time I saw anything like this was 9/11. We are pulling together the way we do in a national emergency. We are saying with our behavior that George W. Bush has injured us as badly as Osama bin Ladin.
And we are fighting back the way we did then, by helping each other.

We finally understood that and are responding accordingly.
