It started as a comment I read in another diary. I hope it is a seed, planted with care in the lawn of progressive humor. A seed that will grow, flourish, and thrive in the sunshine of progressive thought, quenched with the gentle waters of progressive compassion, sheltered from the harsh elements of divisiveness & hate by the stalwart windbreak of progressive unity.
It is this diary. My first in three years. One I don't have time to write, but will write anyway. One I share with you and gove to you to nurture as your own.
So, let's get down to business. The premise: whatever bad thing it is in your life, the right-wing noise machine is eager and ready to let you know, that it is President Obama's fault. So, to head off these potential "October Surprises," let's compile a list beforehand, so that there is no shock value when Foxaganda brings it up

OK, that's a start. Now, please, funny people, shame me for my feebleness of effort, and make this diary worthy!
