Another day, another lie…..well it’s early….
Racist /$”*(%(*&$*
I can’t wait to see the president today!
I just love seeing this First Family together. And that song, who made it and the name of it is? Everyday I’m becoming more and more a fan of Jerry Seinfeld.
Hi there, the song is ‘Hey, Soul Sister’ by Train
Thank you Chipsticks for that info.
Dump the Trump
The “donald” has become a ugly punch line for comedians, as it should be.
Now to re-watch the beautiful video of our First Couple.
Now I will send a email to the Washington Post who have invited Donald Trump as their guest to the WHCD Saturday night, and tell them to be sure to ask that lying racists Trump about dodging the Vietnam draft.
Morning everyone, the sun is out and it is a bright cheerful day.
I stayed up and watched the Royal wedding and I’m glad I did. It was so beautiful. Kate’s gown was designed by the woman who kept Alexander McQueen’s line going. I can’t think of her name. It was brought up that Michelle Obama recently wore a McGueen creation at the State Dinner.(remember all the comments after that for her not choosing an American designer and Michelle looked gorgeous in it).
She went for a simple elegant art creation reminiscent of Grace Kelly’s wedding gown. She chose a very simple crown that Queen Elizabeth II’s father gave her when she was 16. I don’t know how many crowns the queeen has in the vault but there are many.
And now I am ready for Obama’s trips.
Wanted to mention that William wore a uniform of the Irish Guard. RED Everything was so colorful and it is beautiful to see Wesminister Abby and Big Ben. The church bells are so loud and will go on for three hours.Yikes, I couldn’t handle that
Best wishes to Kate and William, but I didn’t watch the wedding. I wasn’t that interested in watching it.
HEY SOUL SISTER! :-)))
* Hey Soul Sister*, Yep I like that song, and everytime I hear It, I think of the Obamas, and Prez doing a fast lil step or two on one of the older Videos.. I refer to It as The OBAMA song 🙂
