THIS. Not only that, it’s constitutionally mandated. The guy who planned and executed the Boston Marathon bombing, gets a lawyer. If John Roberts can become Chief Justice then why can’t Debo Adegbile lead the Civil Rights Division? This hate that conservatives have for the NAACP is disgusting. The Democrats who voted ‘NO’ are cowards. When the GOP comes at you with flimsy crap, you fight back. You don’t bare your belly and become a doormat. I share Sen. Reid’s disgust.
Everyone deserves a defense attorney. Even the worst people. We shouldn't punish people who step up to the plate.
Howdy all you O’s!! What a great getting up day on Planet TOD!!
So off I go to shovel AGAIN!!!! Earlier, I grabbed for the shovel and it growled at me! Hopefully its calmed down a bit by now, though I certainly understand why even the shovels are in rebellion.
All I can say is, it had better be a long, hot summer, or else!
groan, but thanks for the attempt to cheer me up. I go from having cabin fever from being iced/snowed inside to using the weather as an excuse to lay around. I just don’t snow what to do.
I dream of the day when I can shed my overcoat, boots, hat, mittens, scarf, hot toddy…… well maybe not exactly shed the hot toddy, but at least enjoy one on the rocks.
Japa was similarly peeved this morning Cookemom, methinks he’s had enough of snow – you two should get together and throw a party to cheer yourselves up. 😕
Good morning Chips, Japa and TOD. Japa and everyone who are tired of the snow, should visit me in sunny CA. It is a perfect spring day here today and my plants are budding. We did not have a real winter here.
Cookemon, that’s my dream too. I’ve wished upon a star, clicked my heels three times and promised untold good deeds, just to see grass and feel warmth again. So far no dice.
Bob, it seems that things are moving swiftly in the right direction. Maybe the talks in Paris will create a way for Putin to save face and the Ukrainians to salvage their country.
Creamer: GOP’s Obamacare-Bashing Soon to Backfire, with No ‘Plan B’
———————————
Nearly 6 in 10 uninsured people have been able to find coverage for less than $100 per month — often with government subsidies that make health insurance affordable
Most important, there are more and more examples every day of people whose lives have literally been saved by the Affordable Care Act — people who couldn’t afford check ups who have found they needed life saving procedures after they got ACA coverage; people who couldn’t afford life saving therapies without going bankrupt or would simply would have died without their new health care coverage.
The problem for the GOP is that all the memories of the malfunctioning website and GOP scare tactics are beginning to fade from memory. Turns out there weren’t any “death panels” — and most of the people whose coverage didn’t meet the new standards of the ACA could get better coverage at lower prices.
Following a House Oversight Committee hearing Wednesday in which a star witness again invoked her Fifth Amendment rights, and the Democratic ranking member denounced a “one-sided investigation,” committee Chairman Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) told reporters that his long-running investigation into the IRS may have hit a “dead end.”
57, I wonder what Angela Merkel would have said if she had talked to Paul Ryan on the phone. “Not connected to reality” would have been an understatement. Ryan’s ego has now gotten so big, he’s floating in space in his own bubble, like Sandra Bullock in “Gravity.”
Because the bubble they have created is made from millions of Americans that the GOP has kept stupid and deranged since the 80’s. They can only function like this because millions of Americans believe their Orwellian vision and the U.S. media has been all but dissolved.
I applaud Rep Cummings, I’d a slapped that damn Issa upside his right-wing crazy head. How dare he cut another Rep’s mic, my gawd he really is an s.o.b.
Both are paid by the Tax payers, yet the conduct by Issa……this is NOT the 1st time he has done this….cutting off the mic when an elected official is talking.
Those who tweet should ask Bill Maher why he has exempted Issa from one of those his show would try to Flip?
I am sure that Rep Cummings does…….there are House Rules. Unfortunately, the Majority……in this case, the GOP leadership can run the House as they please. They know darn well that the media We have today will Never accurately report that this Issa Behavior is not the norm. They will refuse to provide and contrast this to historical modern behaviors and they will just be flip about it as He/She said and move on.
In the olden days, fights and gun fights….well threats of gun fights were recorded. But Dems controlled the House for 40 yrs plus and No such mic cutting ever was recorded to have taken place.
High IQ, well educated, but nonetheless, lacks commonsense? You bet for Life experiences are nothing but skewed for Theories are Not living in another’s shoes.
MSNBC’s Phil Griffin lusted after Book smart over substance. It will Never work out as the poor bloke is just not adaptable to Living Daily Life….as is.
I’m not so sure about IQ part. More like privileged and over-educated; beneficiary of nepotism and legacy preferential hires.
A person with high IQ who has been so privileged in life would be creating stuff that benefits humanity and transforms society for the better, not regurgitating garbage talking points on cable TV from corrupt corporate interests.
With very few exceptions (e.g., Rev Al, Joy Ann), the common theme to Griffin’s hires is not IQ, but financial/economic privilege combined with an absence of real-world experiences.
This is one of those times when I am sorry to be right. I said when Ronan’s show was announced that it was an attempt to dilute the news even further—-infotainment, gossip….
The fact that he was a lawyer at 11 or so didn’t impress me then. Anti-Obama crap. False equivalency.
Yikes, he is worse than I expected. CANCEL.
Ronan’s show will go on just like Chris Hayes has even though Chris’ ratings suck for the 8:00 hour. Phil Griffin doesn’t like to admit that he is wrong so I expect Peyton Place’s son (you had to be alive during the 60’s to understand 🙂 ) to be hosting his show on MSNBC for the foreseeable future.
Welp, it seems my family intends to add to the ‘girl population’ 🙂 My eldest son & wife are having a baby girl in June.. and my nephew and his wife are having identical twin girls in July .. both my sister and I had all boys. With these 3 new babies, we’ll have a combined 6 girl grandbabies and 2 boy grandsons 🙂
I agree, my two little granddaughter’s are so sweet and beautiful.. and they remind me of when I was a little girl.. especially the one that is horse-crazy 🙂 I’m really excited about my nephew’s twins, they are the first in our immediate family.
It always balances out doesn’t it. If you and sis had all boys GOD has to give you girls :). My mom had 3 boys and me (girl) and her sis had all boys. My brothers each had girls and my aunt had all granddaughters and one grandson.
It is often said, “In war, the first victim is truth.” It applies just as much today and perhaps even more so given the many means technology now provides us to seek and find information. The information is then problematic because it is increasingly difficult to sort truth from lies, distortion from disinformation, half-truths from wholly fabricated falsehoods.
In this case…..Not really. Since Judge Bork(sp) in the 1980s……the GOP has escalated the procedures.
Justice Marshall was an advocate and he was OK’d by the senate in the late 1960s when LBJ nominated him. It is that Dems never go as far as the GOP would. And in this case, since Jan 20th 2009…..it looks like the Senate needs to re-evaluate what it means to just advise and consent…….truly means.
Reflecting on his own colossal popularity, the pope criticized “ideological interpretations, a certain mythology of Pope Francis. When it is said, for instance, that he leaves the Vatican at night to go feed the tramps on Via Ottaviano. That never even occurred to me.”
“To portray the pope as a kind of superman, a type of star, strikes me as offensive,” he said. “The pope is a man who laughs, weeps, sleeps soundly and has friends like everybody else. A normal person.”
He acknowledged that he has continued his longtime practice of phoning people who write to him with their problems, including an 80-year old widow who lost her son, whom he calls once a month.
Remarks
by the NATO Secretary General, Anders Fogh Rasmussen at the Press Conference held following the meeting of the NATO-Russia Council at NATO HQ, Brussels
Good evening.
The situation in Ukraine presents serious implications for the security and stability of the Euro-Atlantic area.
And Russia continues to violate Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and its own international commitments.
So NATO decided today to take a number of immediate steps.
We have suspended the planning for our first NATO-Russia joint mission. The maritime escort for the U.S. ship Cape Ray, which will neutralise Syria’s chemical weapons. Let me stress, this will not affect the destruction of chemical weapons, but Russia will not be involved in the escort of the US vessel.
We have also decided that no staff-level civilian or military meetings with Russia will take place for now.
We have put the entire range of NATO-Russia cooperation under review. NATO Foreign Ministers will take decisions on this in early April.
These steps send a clear message: Russia’s actions have consequences.
At the same time, we do want to keep the door open for political dialogue. So we are ready to maintain meetings of ambassadors in the NATO-Russia Council, as we have done today.
I have just chaired a frank and important meeting of the NATO-Russia Council to discuss the situation in Ukraine.
The NATO-Russia Council is a forum for discussions on all issues. Where we agree, and where we disagree.
As Chairman of the NATO-Russia Council, it is my duty to uphold the principles on which our relationship is founded.
Those fundamental principles are now at stake. Our joint pledge to observe in good faith our obligations under international law. And our commitment to refrain from the threat or use of force against each other, or any other state.
So I asked the Russian Ambassador to convey NATO’s firm message to Moscow.
At the same time we have decided to intensify our partnership with Ukraine, and strengthen our cooperation to support democratic reforms.
We will step up our engagement with the Ukrainian civilian and military leadership.
We will strengthen our efforts to build the capacity of the Ukrainian military, including with more joint training and exercises.
And we will do more to include Ukraine in our multinational projects to develop capabilities.
This will complement the international efforts to support the people of Ukraine as they shape their future. And tomorrow, I will meet the Prime Minister of Ukraine to make clear NATO’s support.
So dem senators can be racist to win votes – just like republicans. One MAJOR MAJOR achievement of PBO has been to scuttle the idea that the US has become a post racial society. His election has brought them out of the woodwork into the open. They are disgusting.
Seems it is career ending if anyone dares to support a black man accused of murder in a court of law.
Not a Grayson fan, but vid appears to back up his side of the confrontation, looks like his wife, who filed for divorce a couple of months ago, was doing all the shoving. Their 18 yr. old daughter also backed him up, saying her mom became irate and was the aggressor. Sounds like nasty divorce stuff, where a lot of outrageous charges and counter-charges often are made.

No way!
Congrats Dudette!!
Yes way!!!!
Hello All
Leaving it in your hands Allison! See ya! 😀
Just my luck! Now I’ve gotta go! Love you Family! 😀
Sen. Harry Reid was forced to switch to no (he was the eighth vote) so that the nomination could be reconsidered.
I’m clueless on this Nerdy, what is their problem with Debo Adegbile?
This. Which is insane because it didn’t prevent John Roberts from becoming Chief Justice of the SCOTUS because conservatives refused to back down.
Sometimes, Democrats can be such pathetic cowards.
http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/obama-pick-targeted-where-others-were-spared
You know I agree. What a pathetic performance by our Dem’s.
Oh wow, okay, thanks Nerdy – beyond belief that Dems would oppose him, **** them.
Nothing Democrats do is beyond belief to me.
My notes from New York make it very clear why.
As is progress hadn’t enough enemies, it’s just amazing Vicki.
WTH????????
Second to last picture….I bet he´s laughing because he just heard the nominations for this year´s Nobel Peace Price…
THIS. Not only that, it’s constitutionally mandated. The guy who planned and executed the Boston Marathon bombing, gets a lawyer. If John Roberts can become Chief Justice then why can’t Debo Adegbile lead the Civil Rights Division? This hate that conservatives have for the NAACP is disgusting. The Democrats who voted ‘NO’ are cowards. When the GOP comes at you with flimsy crap, you fight back. You don’t bare your belly and become a doormat. I share Sen. Reid’s disgust.
Howdy all you O’s!! What a great getting up day on Planet TOD!!
So off I go to shovel AGAIN!!!! Earlier, I grabbed for the shovel and it growled at me! Hopefully its calmed down a bit by now, though I certainly understand why even the shovels are in rebellion.
All I can say is, it had better be a long, hot summer, or else!
Afternoon Cookemom, it’s snow joke!!!
groan, but thanks for the attempt to cheer me up. I go from having cabin fever from being iced/snowed inside to using the weather as an excuse to lay around. I just don’t snow what to do.
😆
How much more of this can we take?
Remember, whatever doesn;t kill us makes us stronger or some other idiotic statement.
😆 I wish I could send you here Japa, just to cheer you up:
I’m done being philosophical and pithy. I want the snow and cold GONE. How about you?
I’m pissed at Democrats but this is bullshit. At least he got some push back.
Note: Summers was never officially nominated.
WH lobbying shop aside, 99% of time WH asks Dems to jump, they ultimately respond w: “How high?”
—-
Sorta, Kinda like all you NBC pundits ….they say jump….you all say how high !
How stunning she is. And that dress!
You took the words right out of my mouth!
I dream of the day when I can shed my overcoat, boots, hat, mittens, scarf, hot toddy…… well maybe not exactly shed the hot toddy, but at least enjoy one on the rocks.
Japa was similarly peeved this morning Cookemom, methinks he’s had enough of snow – you two should get together and throw a party to cheer yourselves up. 😕
Only if you show up too. That way we can throw the snow at you. That would cheer us up. (of course, I would intentionally miss)
😉
Good morning Chips, Japa and TOD. Japa and everyone who are tired of the snow, should visit me in sunny CA. It is a perfect spring day here today and my plants are budding. We did not have a real winter here.
My updates were equally depressing and peeved.
😦 Does this help, 57?
Sure! Will this disgustingly happy fella come and shovel snow for me?
Cookemon, that’s my dream too. I’ve wished upon a star, clicked my heels three times and promised untold good deeds, just to see grass and feel warmth again. So far no dice.
Looks like a beautiful day in Miami.
As our lovely FLOTUS arrives there.

I don’t mind him running for public office and winning. Congratulations. I just don’t want it to go any further.

With His Cell/smart phone…..to document the event 😉
I am always surprised that they can still shock me:
And what did the CNN host do? Just sit there and allow such idiocy to be uttered without a strong push-back?
Breathtaking on so many, depressing levels…….
I saw that this morning and e-mailed her asking why she did not ask him how the Keystone pipeline would help make America energy independent.
57, I wonder what Angela Merkel would have said if she had talked to Paul Ryan on the phone. “Not connected to reality” would have been an understatement. Ryan’s ego has now gotten so big, he’s floating in space in his own bubble, like Sandra Bullock in “Gravity.”

Apparently it’s a new restaurant – so they definitely could benefit from the publicity 🙂
Darrell Issa should be retired this Nov, if ONLY those in his district would Oblige……kindly.
This is indeed unAmerican. Rep Cummings is duly elected and in Congress just like the Felon, Rep Issa.
Is that what they call ” storming out ” ?
I applaud Rep Cummings, I’d a slapped that damn Issa upside his right-wing crazy head. How dare he cut another Rep’s mic, my gawd he really is an s.o.b.
Both are paid by the Tax payers, yet the conduct by Issa……this is NOT the 1st time he has done this….cutting off the mic when an elected official is talking.
Those who tweet should ask Bill Maher why he has exempted Issa from one of those his show would try to Flip?
I wonder if Cummings has recourse.. if Issa can be reprimanded.. or something, he shouldn’t be allowed to walk away from this clean.
I am sure that Rep Cummings does…….there are House Rules. Unfortunately, the Majority……in this case, the GOP leadership can run the House as they please. They know darn well that the media We have today will Never accurately report that this Issa Behavior is not the norm. They will refuse to provide and contrast this to historical modern behaviors and they will just be flip about it as He/She said and move on.

wow thank you for that history Nena. I am just so sick of the gop & how they always fail to be fair.

Hello TODable TOD Community ❗
Ronan Farrow is an idiot, and no wonder his ratings are in the sewer…
That slot should go to Ari Melber…..
High IQ, well educated, but nonetheless, lacks commonsense? You bet for Life experiences are nothing but skewed for Theories are Not living in another’s shoes.
MSNBC’s Phil Griffin lusted after Book smart over substance. It will Never work out as the poor bloke is just not adaptable to Living Daily Life….as is.
I’m not so sure about IQ part. More like privileged and over-educated; beneficiary of nepotism and legacy preferential hires.
A person with high IQ who has been so privileged in life would be creating stuff that benefits humanity and transforms society for the better, not regurgitating garbage talking points on cable TV from corrupt corporate interests.
“regurgitating garbage points on cable tv from corrupt corporate interests”…Writing here by HF and by so many at TOD is superb. hat tip, hopefruit.
With very few exceptions (e.g., Rev Al, Joy Ann), the common theme to Griffin’s hires is not IQ, but financial/economic privilege combined with an absence of real-world experiences.
This is one of those times when I am sorry to be right. I said when Ronan’s show was announced that it was an attempt to dilute the news even further—-infotainment, gossip….

I loved Mia in Peyton Place, Donna.
And you are probably right about Ronan staying on the air.
Welp, it seems my family intends to add to the ‘girl population’ 🙂 My eldest son & wife are having a baby girl in June.. and my nephew and his wife are having identical twin girls in July .. both my sister and I had all boys. With these 3 new babies, we’ll have a combined 6 girl grandbabies and 2 boy grandsons 🙂
Sweet – lots of sugar n spice to go ’round! 🙂 Congrats on your upcoming new additions to your family!
thank you hf.. very excited. My mother has been making quilts and baby blankets for weeks now 🙂 🙂
Congratulations! Hopefully it won’t be too hot in June!
It probably will be.. especially when you’re pregnant, right 🙂
Unfortunately, probably will be. I dread this summer. If it’s the equivalent of this winter, I will be living in my central air unit all day!
we don’t have ac, but all the kids do… so the moms and babies should have it comfortable.
Congratulations.
thanks Nena.. twas a piece of cake – for me 🙂
Sherijr, what a great event to look forward to. Hope all newborns are strong and healthy. You will have an exciting summer.
thanks Jackie, I know it’s gonna be wild around here 🙂 I lovvve babies, and grandchildren 🙂
Nice to balance the family lines! Little girls are so much fun!
I agree, my two little granddaughter’s are so sweet and beautiful.. and they remind me of when I was a little girl.. especially the one that is horse-crazy 🙂 I’m really excited about my nephew’s twins, they are the first in our immediate family.

I know, it’s so interesting. My mom & I were discussing just that- she had 3 brothers, 1 sister and ended up having all girls – my sister and I.

The First Victim
It is often said, “In war, the first victim is truth.” It applies just as much today and perhaps even more so given the many means technology now provides us to seek and find information. The information is then problematic because it is increasingly difficult to sort truth from lies, distortion from disinformation, half-truths from wholly fabricated falsehoods.
“No one’s interests are served by ignorance; similarly, someone’s ignorance serves only those others who would to use it to control them.”
Chief Justice John Roberts “devoted 25 pro bono hours” to representing a mass murderer recently executed in Florida.
Mark Pryor voted Yes on Roberts.
Black people are always subjected to a higher standard. Pitiful..
In this case…..Not really. Since Judge Bork(sp) in the 1980s……the GOP has escalated the procedures.
Justice Marshall was an advocate and he was OK’d by the senate in the late 1960s when LBJ nominated him. It is that Dems never go as far as the GOP would. And in this case, since Jan 20th 2009…..it looks like the Senate needs to re-evaluate what it means to just advise and consent…….truly means.
Hmmm…..

“To portray the pope as a kind of superman, a type of star, strikes me as offensive,” he said. “The pope is a man who laughs, weeps, sleeps soundly and has friends like everybody else. A normal person.”
