I'm sorry to read about your MIL's passing. Lung cancer is a beast. My Aunt was diagnosed with it in both lungs...she lived 5 years on chemo...but the SE from chemo killed her. Seems it's either cancer or the cure that gets you. The only thing we can do is pick which we can live, or er, die with. My best to your w
[quote who="GirlFriendTess" reply="63" id="3274163"]If this resignation was because of extramarital affairs as stated, then there shouldn’t be any stonewalling on his part …[/quote] Good point. I haven't really thought about it like that. But you're right. Why not give a full disclosure if the resignation is about adultry and the Libya thing was all good.
[quote who="Anthony R" reply="59" id="3273880"]While much of that might be true, In looking at the results, Mitt Romney caused at least 3 million Republicans who voted for Palin and McCain to sit the election out. Old man McCain actually motivated more Mormons to vote for him than Romney could... and Romney is a Mormon. So shame of those conservatives for voting for Obama by virtue of staying home.[/quote] Veteran's Day is here tomorrow. </span
[quote who="Daiwa" reply="54" id="3273068"]The most transparent administration in history failed to disclose the Iranian drone attack, Petraeus' planned departure (they knew before the election), not to mention the truth about Benghazi. Including the 'hot mic' disclosure about BO's plan to be 'more flexible' after his election, there is as clear a pattern of opacity and deceit with Obama as could ever be imagined. Far worse than Nixon. He's fundamentally dishonest,
[quote who="GirlFriendTess" reply="53" id="3273067"]PS – sorry I got sidetracked cooking steaks on the grill and working on the yard and didn’t realize I was on the first page.[/quote] S'all good Tess! I too remember just 3 stations! And watching Dr Who in black and white on a fuzzy "other" channel. I can't remember, possibly PBS.
[quote who="Anthony R" reply="49" id="3272915"]Yeah, that's where I'm at too. Sometimes people need a problem to just bite them on the backside before they understand it.

They'll blame everyone and anything else but themselves and their self
[quote who="lulapilgrim" reply="44" id="3272428"]Turns out Planned Parenthood spent $15 million getting Obama re-elected. [/quote] Shocking. Not! [quote who="Anthony R" reply="46" id="3272712"]I try not to get angry at Obama voters. For one thing, I have one or 2 in my family (gasp), and it plays into Obama's plans for me to become polarized and get angry. Obama would like nothing more than to put lots of daylight between us and
[quote who="Daiwa" reply="42" id="3272332"]They were also absolutely convinced that had Romney won, Republicans would have shut down Planned Parenthood, not just withheld tax dollars from it. We have to have free birth control to keep 13 year old Philly ghetto girls from getting pregnant. Failing that, we have to have taxpayer funded abortions to keep them from adding to the welfare rolls. This apparently is their idea of compassion.[/quote] Gah.

Hey Terp! I totally agree with the business owner. He has every right to reduce his employees to reign in costs. How does he know who voted which way? Most of the Obama-bots in my life are PROUD of the fact they voted for BO. I can't imagine it is much different anywhere else. As for letting employees go
[quote who="lulapilgrim" reply="32" id="3271931"]Oh, yeah, Santa Claus breads and circuses is what is keeping them on the Democrat rolls. [/quote] Or as your friend put it so well....they just want to sit on the couch and watch dancing with the stars.
If I believed it would actually make a difference...I'd say Thelma & Louise it up! But honestly? I think this country is too far gone. The takers will continue to elect people who will do everything to make sure they have something to take. Everything else will suffer BEFORE entitlements. Because that is what half of this country has decreed.<
[quote who="Jythier" reply="28" id="3271821"]We are slowly giving people more freedom to make more bad choices, and people are making them. I've made them myself.[/quote] The problem with giving people enough rope to hang themselves...they aren't just hanging themselves...they're dragging down an entire nation. I do not think people should be punished for the rest of their lives for bad choices,
Whew. Thought I broke JU! lol
Lula, There is a reason we’re called the “Rome of the West" by some historians. Daiwa, I cut off an internet friend yesterday. She used to blog here. She just spouted total ignorance, and ranted about how ignorant other people appear. We disagree on some fundamenta
Call it petty, but I am done pretending moochers are ok and they just need a hand up. Done. I'm also done with the ill informed and ignorant. I've removed them from my life, including from Facebook.

Voting for a president because he's "cool." It's wi

[quote who="Daiwa" reply="15" id="3271286"]In what may have been the shrewdest move of Obama's political career, he purchased absolute impeachment immunity when he picked Joe Biden for VP.

[quote who="Daiwa" reply="11" id="3271228"]They tried to buck that historical trend by designing a representative republic. Same principle, unfortunately, has been at work, and once again history repeats itself. We took the first hit from the needle, liked it, and will die for it (and from it).[/quote] Ugh.
