The nickname of a bar on Avenue A and 2nd Street that I attended many times in my NYC years was "The Betty Ford Clinic".

She was a trip ole Bette. She went into the bowels of hell on numerous times and came out a better person.
ReplyDeleteI respected her and still do. She stood up for leftwing values when her husband was parking his ass in the Oval Office. Pro-Choice and Pro-ERA amendment.
Take a set of brass ones to do that when the guy sleeping next to ya has an R behind his name and represents the repressionist assholes in the GOP.
Great picture, great post title.
ReplyDeleteI'mma haveta read up on Betty.

ReplyDeleteIs that what they call Alphabet City? Generic City would do as well.
This may be good about Ms. Ford. The picture took a bit of research & unzipping once we read & remembered the event, but the title was spontaneous & we probably shouldn't take any credit.
Not the typical political wifey, for sure. G. R. Fudd not being elected (Or even running.) may have given her some leeway, or something.
