Still not going to vote for...even if her husband is Wonder Blind Person War Hero

#DisabilityPrideMonth, except late on purpose.

 RantWoman long ago got her college career off to a colorful start. Almost immediately after arriving on campus RantWoman took interest in a campus newspaper called The Forerunner. The masthead proudly proclaimed refusal to print anything that (the editorial cabal) considered racist, sexist, militarist, or otherwise offensive."

RantWoman's views have become considerably more complex.

RantWoman is still almost certainly not going to vote for WA Republican US Senate candidate Tiffany Smiley. And RantWoman is still going to take note of her family's story.

RantMom mentioned in passing that Mrs. Smiley's husband is blind. RantWoman immediately went to "ewww, is she using her husband for a prop?'  Research was called for.

Here Mrs. Smiley  is on, ugh, Marcia Blackburn's podcast
Marsha Blackburn's podcast: never give up


Here is her campaign website.

A good percentage of the images have at least minimal alt text so she gets partial credit for accessibility #A11y.
