Galaxy Girl!!!
That’s ME!!
Congrats Tally!!!
Chips, everyone, you won’t want to miss the video in this tweet ….
Thanks for the video link Bob. Watched all of it. I will say about Sec Kerry what I said about Caroline Kennedy: he was born for this job. I am so thrilled for him to be on the world stage so positively. President Obama has done such a masterful job of appointing gifted people for positions and just trusting them to perform brilliantly.
Totally agree with you, Carolyn!!
Thanks Bob!
Thank you for all you did (and continue to do), Tally, to help folk have access to affordable health care!!!
Bob, I love the way Kerry is so unsparing in his words. There isn’t any wiggle room here. He knows Russia’s number, he’s calling out the deceit and he says the world knows it and will act.
What pearly whites you have:)
š š š Merci!
Hey Lovely Tally…..Congrats on being first and Happy Thursday
Hey girl! Thanks!
Hey Bardgal! Checking in on The Bard’s birthday! Lovely to see ya! š
Who’s the the smartest girl???? YOU ARE!!!! (except it was yesterday š ) Still. CLOSE ENOUGH!!!
*Trivia – did you know he died on his birthday?
Happy Belated Birthday, TallyBard!
Next month – so you’re not late. š
oh – and the 23rd is SHAKESPEARE’S birthday!
Argh, thought it was the 24th, but close will do. š
Hello people !!
Happy Thursday!
Yo, y’all! Tally, lead the way!
Hate seeing that “skinhead’s” head (no offense to nice normal bald men).
Hi Tally – are you breathing easier now that CA did such a great job enrolling people? We’re still slogging away here in OR. Congratulations on first!
Judith I saw that the Feds might take over the Oregon exchange. It was a little blurb and I dont remember where I saw it. Have you heard anything?
I saw that too…
Bill R. would be another good Oregonian to ask.
He’s very, very active in getting people signed up for medical insurance.
He mentioned recently that the Oregon deadline was later than the April 15th deadline for everyone else. Not sure why this would be so.
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/oregon-obamacare-exchance-covered-oregon
Oregon intends to surrender its dysfunctional Obamacare exchange to the Obama administration, which is making plans to take over the state’s insurance marketplace, sources familiar with the matter confirmed.
The state-based exchange, Cover Oregon, was such a disaster that — despite spending millions of dollars trying to make it work — not a single resident was able to sign up online during the first open-enrollment period from Oct. 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014. Instead, thousands signed up by paper or phone.
On Thursday, Oregon’s top information-technology official recommended to a 16-member advisory board that the state relinquish its broken insurance exchange, according to The Oregonian. The Obama administration expects the full exchange panel to approve the recommendation.
Yes – that’s pretty much it. It’s been tremendously frustrating, but we ARE getting people signed up. The navigators can use the buggy website without problems to walk people through the process. It was so bad, our enrollment deadline was extended to April 30th. We still have several enrollment fairs around the state which my team has been publicizing. The media and the GOP will try to take down Senator Merkley and Governor Kitzhaber, but I doubt they will succeed. We absolutely have to GOTV!
As Sec Kerry noted, Putin’s propaganda machine is no match for the millions committed to spreading the truth ….
“We would like to note the following in connection with the statement by Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu about the start of military exercises by Russian troops near the state border with Ukraine:
We have not observed a noticeable increase in the deployment of Russian troops near the Ukrainian border. According to our data, Russian battalion tactical groups of combined arms formations from the Southern and Western Military Districts, mentioned by the Russian Defense Minister, were already established a few days ago (as reported earlier by the IR group).
There continue to be up to 50,000 Russian soldiers deployed in the 150 km [93 mile] zone from the state border in Russia.
Therefore, it is difficult to talk about the current concentration of Russian troops at the border as Russiaās response to the ATO conducted in eastern Ukraine. This group of Russian troops was deployed at the border prior to these events.”
http://maidantranslations.com/2014/04/24/dmitry-tymchuk-regarding-military-exercises-of-russian-troops-near-the-ukrainian-border/
I wonder if people like this Russian Defense minister actually believe they have any credibility left at all or if they’re nudging each other about the joke they think they’re pulling on the west.
Hi!
Economic warfare is not a joke ….
“Russia scrapped bond sales for the seventh time in eight weeks as investors demanded higher yields after the U.S. said the country wasnāt taking steps to de-escalate the crisis in Ukraine.
The Finance Ministry canceled the sale of as much as 10 billion rubles ($280 million) of nine-year ruble securities and the same amount of five-year notes because there were no bids at acceptable prices, according to a statement on its website.”

Hey Chips! Did ya know today is Enda Kenny’s birthday!
Also Barbra Streisand, 1942.
Yep. And Shirley MacLaine. And Djimon Honsou (squeee!). And Richard Donner. And Derek Luke. And Cedric the Entertainer. š
Whoa!
Happy Birthday Library of Congress.
Yeh baby!!!
Love when the President travels. He looks so elegant and gracious.
Looks that way when he’s home, too. š
He does indeed but when he is a way he is not surrounded by GOP and MSM crap dusters but folks who admire and appreciate him. His travels are reported with honesty and admiration by the press in those countries. If it wasn’t for TOD what would we see? Shudder to think.
Oh, I know what you meant and agree with you, I was just reveling in all of it!
*crap dusters* <<< perfect!
I know!!!! What’s not to love no matter where he is?
Let’s enjoy every minute. I know I am!!!!!
The thoughts of a “loser”that’s from my state. What an odoriferous pos.
Anything to see their name in lights, eh? Pfftt.
Any doubt that John Walsh is a racists? I never had any doubt. The Tea Party is the new KKK. What does that make the Republican Party? Racists too.
You betcha.
I think you mean Joe Walsh. John Walsh is running for senate in Montana.
Very few people I’d like to run down with my car. Very few. Maybe two in my life.
He’s one of ’em.
^^ I completely put distance between myself and this statement, now that I’ve written it, since I’m a pacifist and wouldn’t actually do it. But I’d like to.
War monger! š
Watch out; I’ll growl atcha! Scary, eh? š
Bring it tenderfoot.
That “threat” just gave me a chill! Okay, I’ll tone it down. Ha.
# IAmVeryBoringTonedDown
True Confession: I have a brother, (no names now), who seems to seriously want Jesse Ventura to run for the WH in 2016. I have to say, I really don’t know how to respond to this. Hope his meds aren’t slipping.
Ol’ Jesse had a big following, around the time he was a governor. Think he does a conspiracy/paranoia show now – or at least he did many years ago when I last thought of him.
Sorry about your brother – maybe he’s trying to get a rise out of you, MP!
Thanks – if so, it’s working! ;( I am finding conversation difficult… As in, I’m speechless! š
I hope he knows that JV due to some heavy criticisms from the press, left his gubernatorial office early. It was a 4yr one term gig and he bolted when the criticism got to him.
How Dmitry Tymchuk Broke the Russian Blogosphere
clip
“Dmitry Tymchuk is, in fact, a real person. His Facebook posts attract so many shares and so few comments because the ability to comment on his posts is restricted to his friends. (He has almost 80 thousand followers, but just 5 thousand friends.) Since Sannikovās article was published, Tymchuk has appeared in person for several interviews and conferences. When he granted an interview to Ukraineās premier Internet television station, Hromadske.TV, the host even poked Tymchuk in the arm, to confirm for viewers that he isnāt an Internet phantom invented by NATO.
Tymchuk has been publishing pro-Ukrainian, anti-Russian memos and opinion pieces for nearly six years. In August 2008, when Russia was at war with Georgia, he wrote that Ukraine should study the conflict, in anticipation of facing future Russia aggression. In December 2008, when Ukraine finally withdrew the last of its armed contingent from the multinational force deployed to Iraq, Tymchuk wrote that Ukraine had gained military experience that would be valuable in future conflicts closer to home.
In other words, Tymchuk is your standard patriotic blogger. Certainly more energetic and better informed than the average Internet user, Tymchuk has scribbled away on obscure websites for nearly six years, consistently thrashing what he perceives to be Ukraineās aggressive neighbor to the east. After annexing roughly four percent of Ukraineās population, and threatening to āliberateā still more, Russia has made Tymchuk a star of Ukraineās political scene.
Rather than acknowledge Moscow’s role in promoting Tymchuk, some Russian bloggers prefer to blame NATO. Life, after all, is simpler with your head in the sand.”
http://globalvoicesonline.org/2014/04/23/how-dmitry-tymchuk-broke-the-russian-blogosphere/?gv_hidebutton_used=header-banner&gv_hidebutton_expiration=30
Well, I must say Tymchuk is an excellent writer, even in translation, and I enjoy reading his daily reports.
This Kansas and Bundy @%&# today has me *!^# & (prettyfoot I’m with you). I saw this comment (from a Jerry Rosen) over on Pierce’s’s blog, and couldn’t resist sharing it here. I’m all in…
“Time to give these s***heads their own country. Past time, in effect. Give them the southern tier, take out the army bases, the federal facilities like the Space Center. Then build a real wall.
Stop subsidizing them. We develop real alternative energy and let their f–ing oil stay in the ground (good side effect: put Putin back in the vodka bottle). Give them all the guns they want and let them proceed to kill each other. Forget vaccinating their kids or regulating nutrition in their schools, so they can grow up to be cholesterol- choked arthritics and early diabetics, and die miserable deaths from smoking. Let their “government” degenerate into Somalia or South Sudan; let them wave their (unread Bibles), pig out on FoxNews as they burn their crosses, drink coal ash with their water, and breath CO and sulfur dioxide to their mean and hateful heart’s content. Then the rest of the country can join the 21st century and they can go back to the 16th (or farther to the 14th if they want).”
Excellent!
This is not a good idea.
Just saw the FL’s appearance on Parks and Rec—-cute.
Anybody get a chance to see Parks and Recreation with the First Lady? She looked fabulous!
I saw an ad and she looked gorgeous. I’ll watch at 8pm Pacific.
It’s just a short piece early in the program, Meta, but it’s all good!
I just saw FLOTUS on Parks and Recreation. I guess that was all we will see of her, but I will watch the entire show just to be sure.
Day after day. Post after insightful post. She just gets it done.
http://immasmartypants.blogspot.com/2014/04/desperado.html
Great post, but did you read the one comment. I can’t believe what they said. I am not good at replying to someone who posts this kind of crap. Nancy has such great posts. I so appreciate you reminding us.
re: South Korea:
A couple of days ago I wondered why South Korea wasn’t pulling out all the stops for our President’s visit, and now have seen a couple of different answers.
From Korean news:
NYTimes:
South Korean diplomats are characterizing it as a visit by an old friend ā a pointed contrast to Mr. Obamaās more formal two-day stop in Japan, which includes an elaborate welcoming ceremony at the Imperial Palace, an audience with Emperor Akihito and a state dinner.
http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/24/world/asia/obama-asia.html
Saw Dudette’s question on the previous thread which asked whether anyone else had seen a clip of President Obama with South Korean President Park Geun-hye (aired over television airwaves?).
I searched on Google for President Obama in South Korea, and the top results were about how the ferry disaster may overshadow our President’s visit there.
Our MSM jumps on the RWNJ bandwagon that “it’s all Obama’s fault.”
Geez, he can’t win for losing.
š I can’t resist sharing this either, from Andy Borowitz’s satirical news column at The New Yorker. Sure, it’s sarcasm, but it also happens to be the truth…
REPUBLICANS BLAST NEVADA RANCHER FOR FAILING TO USE COMMONLY ACCEPTED RACIAL CODE WORDS
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report) ā Republican politicians blasted the Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy on Thursday for making flagrantly racist remarks instead of employing the subtler racial code words the G.O.P. has been using for decades.
āWe Republicans have worked long and hard to develop insidious racial code words like āentitlement societyā and āpersonal responsibility,āāā said Sen. Rand Paul (R-Kentucky). āThere is no excuse for offensive racist comments like the ones Cliven Bundy made when there are so many subtler ways of making the exact same point.ā
Fox News also blasted the rancher, saying in a statement, āCliven Bundyās outrageous racist remarks undermine decades of progress in our effort to come up with cleverer ways of saying the same thing.ā
oops… http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/borowitzreport/2014/04/republicans-blast-nevada-rancher-for-failing-to-use-commonly-accepted-racial-code-words.html?utm_source=tny&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=borowitz&mbid=nl_Borowitz%20(64)

Happy Belated Birthday Lovely Tally
Not my birthday – that’s next month – SHAKESPEARE’S birthday! April 23rd.
People with common sense saying critics is dumb ass idiots.
People who haven’t lost all common sense, say that the critics who are saying that President Obama bowing to a Chinese robot make us look weak, these critics are a bunch of dumb ass racists idiots.
Speaking of robots:
How idiotic are @TeamCavuto? Most MSM have been characterizing PBO’s trip as a means to circumvent China. I know the cliche is that all Asians look alike, but their robots too?
ICYMI, from last week — look how spry Asimo is:
Can he slap neil cavuto…
Layla you and I are on the same wavelength this evening! š See my comment below. :LMAO!
WE LOVE Flotus…We are Proud of Her…and there is nothing that they can do about it~
prettyfoot58, you are so right about that. I just loved how she dealt with that young girl this morning who told her about her unemployed father. We love and respect POTUS and FLOTUS
Looks like Chips isn’t on this thread, but I’m hoping she stops by.
I think she may have missed this encouraging news on Danny’s 8-month BD.
From MomSense, on today’s Early Bird Chat thread (I’m not sure how old her puppy was when he ate everything in sight):
http://theobamadiary.com/2014/04/24/early-bird-chat-189/#comment-1008654
GM everyone! Been a crazy week for me and Iām just trying to get caught up. Wanted to stop by and say hello. Even when I donāt have time to comment, I always love reading the posts and seeing all the fantastic pictures. Thanks again and a very happy 8 month birthday to Danny. Donāt worry, he will settle down. My 14 year old sweetheart of a lab ate a palm pilot, camera, a coffee table, and my brand new beautiful boots (my one splurge purchase from a trip to Australia!) all because I forgot to latch his crate when I left the house for 3 hours to go to a pre-school sing along. He grew up and has been the best friend ever. So if you can slow him down for a second, please give him a skritch from me!
š
“My 14 year old sweetheart of a lab ate a palm pilot, camera, a coffee table, and my brand new beautiful boots”
I suddenly feel blessed!!!
Thank you Arapaho415!!
I thought it was a heartwarming story. Danny’s still a rambunctious youth, so accidents (i.e., eating everything in sight) will happen.
I wish the Japanese Robot Asimo would walk up to the US media (Jim Acosta CNN I’m looking at you) and slap everyone of them upside their thick heads.
Or kick the soccer ball at ’em?
LOL! Perhaps, OR just kick ’em…
Yes. Perhaps.
Follow the money! Eh, Mitt?
Mark is drooling just thinking about this…
I can see his point.
That poor thing, he is just so useless..does he even know..
Is there a picture of it?
Green tea ice cream is spectacular!
I think it’s the only Japanese dairy based food.
I’ve had some here that isn’t very good, but in good Japanese restaurants (don’t know about sushi places, because I don’t like raw food) it’s exquisite. Delicate, but very full-bodied (I’m terrible at describing taste, but it’s scrumptuous to me).
Reminder: from VP Biden’s December Asia trip:
Haha! I meant the dessert, not actual mountain! Have seen plenty of pictures of that. It is magnificent, however. š
Yes, I would be very interested in the green tea at the bottom also! How very special the Emperor and Empress knew of our Presidents fondness for green tea!
Bee-you-tee-full.
I thought it was a good interview. Good insight as to what the citizens are saying and what they are dealing with.
Interviewing a blk man…yeahh…about that racist POS…I suppose he was to be objective and all…smh
The Bundy doesn’t believe in the Fed Gov’t. I would have done as she did. Our Reps are to be our closest link to the Fed Gov’t.
The person interviewed about Bundy’s racist remarks is the elected official in Bundy’s district. Seemed appropriate to me.
Everyone needs to see this in-depth and revealing segment. Highly recommended. It should be required viewing for all reporters and media outlets.
Ladyhawke,
Thank you so much for posting links to the good segments on MSNBC.
Rachel’s in-depth investigation into the white supremacists who literally pal around with each other (e.g., Kansas shooter and Spokane bomb-planter) was amazing. The first segment lasted a full 30 minutes without interruption.
This is why I commend Rachel’s staff. She’s got the best in the news business, and aside from 60 Minutes is about the only investigative journalism on television — and her staff does this on a daily basis, not on a 22-episode season (like 60 Minutes).
Would appreciate your linking to today’s segment tomorrow, if you get the chance.
My pleasure Arapaho415. I will post the link as soon as it is available.
it was a great segment…esp bringing to light the historical references…..however Maddow gives Fox and company a pass…unless all that was tongue in cheek…but like I said,i believe,they Knew what was lurking behind the door
Regarding Syria …

“In counterpoint Assadās opponents have launched a Twitter hashtag campaign, #AssadCampaignSlogans, offering alternative slogans that he might like to use.
Classic offerings so far include: āVote for the blood Baāathā : āDonāt Throw Assad out with the Baāath waterā : āHarnessing chemicals to build a brighter futureā : āMy family has megatons of experienceā : āPutting laughter in Manslaughter since 2011ā³ : āKeep the Homs Fires Burningā : I will rebuild Syria from the ashes (as soon as I finish burning it completely)ā, and many more.”

Edited …
please keep your thoughts, prayers and attention on the people of Southern Sudan – the world’s newest country formed after decades of war & thousands slaughtered;
this is what happens when “leaders” with microphones & arms use tribal, racial/ethnic diversity to set one group of people against the other as a way to amass personal power;
https://twitter.com/StateDept/status/459496233011515393 ;
The Greater UMC and especially our specific Holston Conference of the UMC does a lot of mission work and has much association with South Sudan. So very sad!
LOL!
š š quite a dilemma š š
Damn Kansas
Fuck them!!!!
Take notice that our AG Holder will show the same class and dignity that FLOTUS showed.
FLOTUS cancelled…now the AG….is there some kind of pattern brewing here….should we let protests keep us from speaking….PBO spoke at Notre Dame..amid protests…is this how it will be…that white racists get to determine what we do….I think I need the strength and wisdom of my grandmother right now…
I read earlier today that POTUS is speaking to the graduates a day earlier in KS. I don’t have a link now. It is getting late for me to look it up.
I read that somewhere too. She didn’t cancel her speech – she just rescheduled it š
http://www.hngn.com/articles/27033/20140320/president-obama-uc-irvine-2014-commencement-potus-will-give-speech-at-anaheim-angels-stadium-for-universitys-50-year-anniversary.htm
Is this the one you meant
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/michelle-obama-reschedules-visit-kansas-high-school-protests-article-1.1768006
This one and few others reported the story.
FLOTUS will speak May 16 instead of May 17.
https://in.news.yahoo.com/date-first-ladys-kansas-graduation-speech 155808767-politics,html
but but the SCOTUS says there is no racism – the true colors are now showing all over – they truly can’t believe Obamacare is a success – that sent them over the edge – all of them and any of them.
bet you Danny’s favorite chew toy that this will get folks pissed off and out to the polls to vote dems this year. š
This is fascinating and exceptionally symbolic.
Good for Merkel. This is an important step.
I am hoping we will have this site continue after PBO ends his presidency. PLEASE, Chips.
You’re not the only one. OG!
Trump’s dawg?
š
Safe Journey POTUS.
G’Nite TOD ā¤ Always š
“So is POTUS”? Uh, brilliant. It’s his plane! (Even their humor is trite.) š
A real eye catcher, that clever line, eh? Another dunce who has no business being around this caliber of President. Is it supposed to be funny, or does he not know it’s only AF1 because of PBO?
I think it’s their version of “humor.” Ugh.
It’s only Air Force One when the President is on board… This tweet really reveals the media’s own inflated sense of self-importance… And ignorance.
LMAO!
