This, too:

US SPENDING DEAL SHOWS DEMOCRATS STILL WIELD CLOUT IN CONGRESS

I'm just so happy and relieved that Planned Parenthood was protected.

...and Russian money-launderers. Don't forget that.

This utterly wretched small sour prune of a man was vice chair of the Bank of Cypress, the go-to "laundromat" for Russian mobsters and oligarchs.

Thank you for posting this, sheshe.

We'll miss him. We already do.

Gee, ya think?

I thought he did a terrific job!

Yeah, he did start kinda slow, but then he really hit it home!

Also made some amazingly great points about how the media can now know what it's like to be a minority. Hey, guys, try that one on and walk around in it for awhile. You'll find it fits pretty doggone well.

It was a unique performance. He amused on the one hand, and got 'em thinking seriously about some very sober realities on the other hand. (At least I hope so!) A speech that delivered in all kinds of directions, including tough love.

And she'd certainly know, considering all that she has seen.

I've seen ten presidents before this * and the historical vantage I have, while less than hers, is in full agreement. I can remember back to JFK.

Yep!

A name I won't repeat, that applies FULLY to that rat-fucker Nugent himself.

It was undoubtedly lost to him, Palin, and Kid Rock, when they posed with snarky faces and gestures underneath Hillary Clinton's WHITE HOUSE PORTRAIT (she said, in caps, yelling to make it more obvious). Hillary Clinton will ALWAYS have a portrait hanging IN The White House, thankyouverymuch. What have THEY got?

And where's YOUR portrait, you fucking Neanderthals?

A deeply disturbing speech from a deeply disturbing individual.

An individual who, himself, is deeply disturbed.

You're catching on, Gergen.

Oh Blessed be to God!!!

That's the best news I've heard yet, today!

That woman has been an irritant to our side and almost everything we believe in, from Day 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.
