I heard a frustrated Democrat on the radio say, "We voted in 2020." That's like saying, "I fed the baby yesterday."

1. Darned babies...

They need to eat every day!!

We need to vote in huge numbers every single time, forever!!

[mcar]

2. Yes!

[2naSalit]

9. Yup!

[onecaliberal]

3. These fucking people are why we're here to begin with.

[mcar]

4. Yep

[questionseverything]

6. 1%ers & the repub party are why we are where we are at

[electric_blue68]

7. AND Those who Voted Third Party in Red & Purple States, and Those who Stayed Hone

[onecaliberal]

8. The people who did't vote for Hillary most recently.

[mcar]

22. And the "conscience voters"

who derided HRC voters as "vagina voters" and screamed that she was worse than IMPOTUS II. They are why we are where we are at - and they are continuing their policy of trashing Democrats and suppressing the vote.

5. Why trim my fingernails, they'll just grow back

Frustrated Dems should elect more Dems to get some good stuff past GOP obstruction

10. FTW is right!

[mcar]

23. Hello Bill. Thanks for the reply

[packman]

11. I used to really enjoy Paula when she was on Prarie Home Companion

Had some rough times - hope she's doing well- loved her talking about her cats (16- I believe)

[jaxexpat]

12. I love Paula, sometimes she's on NPR, "wait,wait, don't tell me."

She's really down to earth. I saw her do a routine while laying on the stage for about 30 min of it.

[electric_blue68]

21. I love "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" !!! It's a News Quiz show with a guest panel, call ins, and...

(for those unfamiliar with it)

and special guest...My favorites are guess the real news story. It's something sort of unusual, off base, a bit crazy [sometimes quite crazy, actually] bc the two fake ones are like that.

Honesty I'd probably by a CD of a compilation of those!😄

And talking with the special guest for whom they have a special quiz.

[mcar]

24. She's the best on Wait Wait

so funny.

[rubbersole]

16. She's occasionally a guest on the Stephanie Miller Show.

Incredibly quick.

[wnylib]

18. Also sometimes is on NPR's Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me.

[yellowdogintexas]

29. I love the current running gag with Stephanie & Paula

Paula calls in and describes what she had to go through to make the call. This can involve using various small appliances to make the call, for example.

She is one of the funniest people on the planet

[rubbersole]

31. "Can you hear me? Can you hear me?"

[SunSeeker]

13. K & R & Retweeted!

[The Wielding Truth]

14. Yep, it's not a one and done thing. It's a - work to make this country better and better - thing.

[AdamGG]

15. One of the army of comedians from Boston

Jay Leno, Paula Poundstone, Steven Wright, Louis CK, Bill Burr, Patrice O'Neil, Mark Maron, Doug Stanhope, Joe Rogan (sorry) and a bunch of others.

[mcar]

25. Didn't know she was from Boston

[BlackSkimmer]

17. K and r. nt

[edhopper]

19. Did they vote in 2016?

If not STFU!

[The Revolution]

20. Yep

Republicans turned out in droves in every election for decades and now it is paying off for them big time.

[brer cat]

26. K&R

[Grokenstein]

27. "Why bother, maaaan. It's not like politics affect you or me." /s

[murielm99]

28. Yeah, and besides which,

both parties are the same.

[burrowowl]

30. Love Paula. She has a podcast!

[mcar]

32. I'll look it up

Thanks.
