note: quick point about the GOP and Obamacare (no ranting - at least not today)
I read an article in the past few days about how the majority of government employees are in states who voted for Romney as opposed to Obama in the last election. Take Wyoming for example, for all of their railing against federal gov, state govt, the govt is a HUGE employer.
I make this point because the House GOP loves to rail against Obamacare, some believe that it will work and that's why they are against it. Why couldn't another result be that it works, and that in some regions of the country it still does not substantially change the political dynamic of those who current support GOP or Democrats?
It seems to me illogical to think that Obamacare = more Democratic voters when government employees do not equal more Democratic voters.
That said, apparently a lot of virulently anti-Obamacare GOP are fundraising the shit out of this issue, so that's what is really driving the Ted Cruzes.
This morning I noticed that there are actual baby lemons on my tree! [link]
Not just those two, either--there are about 5 of them total.
I live a very exciting life.
BTW definitely the right William Lipow. And now that I know his original name was Welwel Lipowitz , maybe I can find out the details about the family legend of his killing a Cossack.
Thanks so much Hil.

Great! Glad I could help.
Yay lemons! That was fast, you don't usually get fruit the first year, I don't think.

I thought so too! I may pull some of them off because I'm not sure the tree can support them yet but it was still cool to see.
Yay for lemons!
