        Hi 99!! That’s good to hear, but I can’t stand to watch any of those cable shows because as soon as they something that I disagree with, I’m cussing like a sailor!

          I watched the speech on Cspan – could never watch it on a pundit channel – but it’s been good to hear some positive feedback. They didn’t invite MJ along 🙂

      See what he’s doing there? Letting the pubs off the hook by focusing on the greatest President of the United States who has ever and will ever live and looking for something to pick at. Shame!

    It’s been a blast today TOD. I even got to release the Kracken on the Repubs on twitter. Now it’s time to put the Kracken to bed.

    I leave you with this one.

    Good Night Everyone!

    Listening to that Sec. of Labour was …… was…..

    I like that he reinforced my perception of the atmosphere within the room; I like that he was enthusiastic, but I’m glad that *I* don’t have to listen to him often.

    Just now ending ‘day job’ commitments …. obviously, from my glances at TOD posts, our PBO is the greatest President since FDR (if not greater).

    And, then there’s this …

      She also gave a speech that said I am a wonderful person – government is bad – but I am so happy to work in that very bad place.

      It’s unfortunate that she represents a portion of the great state of Washington, although that side of the state is nothing like the west side of the Cascades. The closer one stays to Seattle, the more normal one feels.

      Thanks for all you do, Bob, in keeping us continually informed.

          Dudette, I’ve been waiting to ‘see’ you on line to post this. A bunch of folks, myself included, wondered where you were and how you were doing. I’m happy to see you back. I probably missed the thread where you ‘came back’ because I haven’t been as active as I was when I wasn’t working, but regardless, I’m happy that you are back in town!!

          So, here’s to you, Dudette! From one wanna be DJ to another!! 😆 😆

    WASHINGTON — Three times, mainly by chance and in very different circumstances, Sgt. First Class Cory Remsburg has met President Obama.They were introduced near Omaha Beach in France in 2009, when Sergeant Remsburg was part of a select Army Ranger group chosen to re-enact a parachute drop for celebrations of the 65th anniversary of the D-Day landings in World War II……

    They sure are wingnuts – Rachel will probably never ask one on again – but unlike most pundits – she lets him talk without interruption – Benghazi!!!

      January 28, 2014 at 11:47 pm

      They truly lie – I think at times one should listen, just to understand how they lie and how they con people into voting for them.

    • 100 idon
      January 29, 2014 at 12:09 am

      Benghazi was an operation funded by adelson and facilitated by netanyahu. The KKK GOP funded the racist video, paid the ME rioters and through US contractors outed the CIA safehouse to the assassins. We need to stop reacting and start posting the truth. Adelson gave 100 million dollars to romney’s campaign, which is 50 million more than he needed for his incompetent ground game and tv ads. This adelson operation was done to thwart Hillary Clinton’s presidential aspirations in 2016. However, if she runs, she will win in 2016.

    WOW! Just WOW!
    I knew this would be the best speech ever. But this was much more…..OUR President just made mince meat out of these GOP and they are done in 2014. They know it. We know it. Believe it!
    Two words that will stay with throughout 2014 are: ACTION and PARTICIPATION
    OUR President boldly with power, authority and class let them know games are over. He gave the, chance after chance and he will do what he has to do with them or without them. So proud of how he manages to stay focused and classy.
    These next three years are going to be so memorable as our President accomplishes everything he set out and said he would do.
    Simply, because he believes! He has more faith in us than we dream to believe. It is going to happen. Hold in to your seats.
    His enemies have already started to confuse and devour each other. Before it is over he will make his enemies his foot stool.

    This speech was so much and covered so many heartfelt areas, I could not take my eyes away. It was downright soulful. My soul is at rest.
    We will be more than all right in 2014 as long as we get this President a Congress that is willing and able to work with him.

    I pray that everyone got home safely from the traffic jam in the south.
    I can only imagine how those people felt on the GWB in September in a similar traffic jam that was not caused by nature, but by a GOP Bully and his henchwoman/henchmen.

    Sweet sleep everyone.

    Do GOP women all use the same voice therapist? This #GOPresponse sounded rather like the NJ Lt Gov speak

        Not quite as pronounced – but very similar. No style, no personality – I would not talk to my grandbabe in that fashion – can still remember when I had my daughter being told not to talk down to a child – they understand “normal talk” like everyone else.

      Not only the same voice therapist – the come from the same mold as well. Looks to me, from the vine, that she forgot to wear her gloves. 🙄

        LOL – I think it is very sad that she sees her role in life in this way. She was just used – because of her sex – by the GOP – and she thinks they did her a favor. Maybe it was payback time??
