NICE! Sure love that family photo!

Hope we see more leaders like His Honor all over this country.

It's sad as can be. We all join you in solidarity, though, mylye2222!

I am so sorry to see this insane, inexplicable carnage. It just makes NO sense. All it does make - is negativity.

We can't and mustn't EVER be muzzled. Whether it's by North Korean hackers who don't like a movie or Islamic extremists wrapping themselves in some distorted view of "religion" who don't like satire or comic strips, or even when it comes to being able to discuss what have become sensitive topics here in this country - like a woman's right to choose and gun control.

And on another note - it feeds my soul to see and hear and French. Don't get that many opportunities to savor that beautiful, melodic, and downright sexy language here in SoCal. And that was the language I studied all through elementary and high school.

Welcome to DU, Jim Beard!

Glad you're here! When I see a low post count, I usually jump all over 'em... to say "Welcome to DU!" More often than not, though, it's someone who actually has been around here for awhile and just hadn't posted too frequently. Glad you're here, whether you've been a longtime lurker OR a more recent arrival.

God I HATE republi-CONS...

Every day I hate them just a tiny bit more.

Reminds me of something that could also have come off donald rumsfeld's twisted tongue.

All those "I don't know's" - did those constitute known unknowns or unknown unknowns?

So am I! Let's not forget - those nice GOPers want to make sure that all gets taken away from you.

Let's not forget that. We FOUGHT for this. And we're still fighting. And as long as they draw breath, we'll have to keep fighting. This will NEVER be won. Just look at how they're targeting Social Security now, and when was that instituted? During FDR? And we're STILL fighting it?

I think some of our Dems think that - well, it's done. We got it. We won. Let's go back to sleep. And we can't. Because the enemy NEVER sleeps at all. And if we expect to stay ahead of them, and protect the ground we've gained - much less build upon it or try to expand it, we're never going to be able to sleep at all, either.

We're going to have to start learning to stay awake and stay vigilant, if we're ever going to get anywhere with progressive values and policies. They've certainly found a way to do that in the enemy camp. Why can't we?

Welcome to DU, gelsdorf!

Glad you're here! I'd add another +1,000,000,000 (top .01%)!

No kidding.

That'd be funny if it weren't true...

I suspect they get that way by "reading" their special home-grown annotated Buy-Bull.

I just wanted to post again - to check out my new sig line.

Kirby Delauter.

So there.

January 7, 2015

Shit did you see this one?

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
