northside dfa (chicago) [View all]

i am not a real active member of this dfa group, but it is the last one active in chicago. it is a very strong organization, especially when it comes to getting folks down ticket on the ballet, and elected.
posting a couple shots from a photo op in 11/07.
i made political buttons during the bush years. i made on that was a pic of bush, the logos of all the companies that his cabinet worked for when he came into office. the wording was- george bush, brought to you by.... and millionaires everywhere.

so, i later made a button that had howard, surrounded by pennies, nickels and dimes, and computer mice that said- howard dean brought to you by ordinary people.

so, i asked him to sign his button, but snuck one of each in his pocket, telling him he needed them both to get the joke.
earlier this year i was able to meet him again at a dfa fundraiser. i asked him to sign the same button again. we had a chuckle and i had him sign it "hello again".
it is now my double most prized possession.
