These Parties Disgust Me
In case you didn’t pick up on it, today’s print release is a graphic declaration… demonstrating my deep disdain for dysfunctional democracy.

Vote for people who want campaign finance reform because that is the only way to decrease the influence of corporations and special interests on our elected officials.
