Morning everyone! Sorry for my monster huff yesterday, PBO’s speech and demeanor at the OFA thing did my head in, the treatment of him by his own party is just too much. If the prospect of a GOP President wasn’t so horrific, I’d say **** the Democrats.
Thanks a trazillion to Nerdy for last night’s wonderful posts, and to her and LL for preparing posts for today – I almost forgive them for being Chelsea fans. Almost.
And most importantly, an update on Danny’s new hedgehog:
I actually can’t find the rest of him, I’m trusting that he’s lying around the house somewhere, rather than being lodged in Danny’s tummy.
I feel your pain! Those kinds of toys for him are useless..In 5 minutes, Sadie destroyed a toy that labeled itself ” indestructible”….shreds of it were all over the place. You might have to get him one of these…
Wow, Df, that really does look like a poodle to me! What do you know, DannyO has artistic talents! With this new information him gathering sticks etc so conscientiously is beginning to make some sense – he’s likely building a supply so he can create wood art. I bet Chips will change her tune when she starts to see the potential of his sculpted pieces – probably (witn $$$ signs in her eyes) she’ll give him an entire room to use as his workshop.
DEAR CHIPS…I KNOW SOMETIMES THAT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO MOVE FORWARD WHEN WE SEE POOR TREATMENT OF THE PRESIDENT….HOWEVER…I KNOW WE WILL UNTIL HE EXITS THE WH…….THAT’S THE ONLY REASON I HANG ON IS TO HAVE HIS BACK UNTIL HE IS GONE…:)
Chips, I felt every bit of disgust you did. It really leave a deep gnaw in the pit of my stomach. And as you say, if it weren’t for the total insanity and destruction promised and evidenced by the GOP, I’d wash my hands clean of this entire political “system.”
It’s the whole Warren thing over the trade deal 57, apparently she’s now even fundraising off her opposition to the President – while implying he’s either being dishonest, or doesn’t understand the implications. And O’Malley is at it too. This is the level of loyalty PBO gets from his own party after everything he has done.
“It’s the “public option” hysteria all over again.”
It truly is, 57. It’s her tone in all of this that is so objectionable, just playing up to the leftbaggers’ distrust (or worse) of PBO. I can’t get over her.
And I am sick to death of the deification of her and the left’s stubbornness that there is only one candidate to love, and otherwise they won’t vote. What the eff does it take?!?!
I can almost believe my Ron Paul lover brother’s both parties rant these days. I saw Elizabeth Warren on Rachel seeing when she was asked about viewing the deal how she dodged it with saying the public needed to see it. Seems to me Rachel should have brought up the process in works argument at that point. EW’s only point left is procedural and that would involve a change where the public is brought in sooner and it seems to me that would make any progress impossible which might be the point to start with. I knew EW was not experienced in foreign affairs, but her isolationist rigid views might mean she can never be ready.
When you have 20 minutes DO watch PBO’s address to OFA yesterday.
PBO is, and always has been, honest, but he’s a politician with uncanny self-control — he is the embodiment of the power of understatement.
However, Obots wish he would let loose, and say THIS IS BULLSH*T!!! (I recall a blog post by James Fallows a couple of years ago to that effect, and judging by Fallows’ writing, he is the anti-Rush Limbaugh — always measured and gracious in his blog posts.)
My twitter timeline was filled with “racist” assessments for those Dems who oppose TPP — I know very little about racism (in my own little sunny, suburban SoCal cocoon), but I find it hard to believe that Elizabeth Warren, Sherrod Brown, Ed Schultz, etc. are motivated by racism. I do hope they do what PBO does best, and that is listen — they need to understand how their steadfast obstruction is heard by the pragmatic, inclusive Americans who voted for Barack Obama.
Thank you so much, arapaho, for this explanation. I will watch it either tonight or over the weekend. My days are chaotic, long, busy and stressful lately.
As a (almost senior) white Jewish lady, I do not share the racist experience so I am careful with my comments. However, not everything is racist. Elizabeth Warren and Sherrod Brown disagree with PBO on TPP – I do not believe that is motivated by racism. I choose to trust PBO that this is better than past trade agreements, and that we cannot absent ourselves from the global trade conversation. A decent party would support their president and make their criticisms undamaging – but Dems are awful in this regard. This is why there is no sense of “team loyalty” like the GOP has built.
My dogs once ate my whole tempurpedic mattress: handfuls of compressible foam all over the room when I came home. They did not have the excuse of being puppies either. Guess Danny should give up on stuffed toys😍
I thought the OFA group was supportive and was glad that POTUS called out the Democrats’ fraudulent opposition to TPP. Bunch of Neanderthals. Almost as bad as GOP hacks
I think we are down to just one requirement. Underwriters do not understand self-employment, and they REALLY don’t understand the work Mr. 57 and I do and what clients pay him to do. At least the broker got them to go back pretty much to the rules that our application was grandfathered under. It’s been an ordeal.
I would love it if they would waive this last redundant requirement. After everything we’ve been through the last 5 months, I want one weekend where I’m not burdened with work, cleaning, repairs, excessive paperwork, and stress. We are exhausted. Mr. 57 at 75 years old has done so much – we need a break bigtime.
Good morning Arapaho and TOD.
NOT a single word in the NY Times this morning about averting conflict with Iran.
“Standoff over” is not news if it includes the necessity of mentioning the brilliance and effectiveness of President Obama’s foreign policy.
A tweet a day later is not much credit where credit it certainly due.
Welcome back refreshed, Chips. We all will keep it together at least until January 20, 2017. Right??
Pf, I do hope somebody wakes up very soon and realizes the profound truth of what you’re saying. The Democratic candidate NEEDS the Obama coalition and will not succeed without it. Those who take that support for granted are doomed.
Amen.
I am NOT…..I repeat NOT voting for another so-called Dem. while holding my nose!
I will not stay at home but I will vote if I have to write in MY name!
(this is my rant for today)
I may feel a whole lot different when Joe Biden comes out smoking!
Chips, I understand your feelings completely. I have been so disgusted with my fellow Dems lately that I have been avoiding the sight of them. I also respond to no e-mails and refuse to answer the phone. Sometimes I wonder how you manage to wake up each morning and cheerfully go about putting up another post. There must be days when you just want to chuck it in and I wouldn’t blame you. Yesterday I felt like I wanted to hug our President after that heartbreaking OFA speech and then turn around and punch Elizabeth Warren, Martin O’Malley and all other weasely Democratic turncoats in the nose. It would have been so satisfying.
Ah Jackie, I am SO with you. I have absolutely no problem with people expressing their concerns about these trade deals, that’s their right, but the suggestion that PBO can’t be trusted on this, or doesn’t understand the implications, is what does my head in. And then for the likes of Warren to try and boost her standing among lefties by questioning PBO’s word…. good grief. It’s like these people are seeking out an issue – any issue – ahead of 2016 to attack PBO, because they think they will profit from that. That they forget he was elected twice is kinda astonishing. I loathe them all.
GM Chips and TOD. Jackie and Chips, I gree with you all 100 percent. Democrats have a way of shooting themselves in the foot. They need to reign in these superior attitudes. EW has turned me off completely. I don’t even want to hear a word out of her mouth. I blame MSM for propping her up as middle class queen from one statement she made. They totally ignored what PBO had been saying for years about lifting up the middle class.
And now she’s fundraising off her efforts to show the President either isn’t telling the truth, or doesn’t understand the implications of the deal, COS. Oh my.
The fundraising is what I find especially egregious and craven. I’ve respected EW in the past but now I can’t stand the sight of her self-serving harangues. And to think she’s now appointed to a position of leadership in the Senate, bypassing others in a hurry. UGH.
It really is unforgivable Meta, at a time when the GOP is at its most deranged in history, she’s fundraising off her opposition to the most liberal President ever on this issue? Repulsive, she’s turning in to the Jane Hamsher of the Senate.
I just got back home to see this, Chips.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And down goes another talking point knocked out by reality.
DONE….I SENT HIM A LOVE AND HUGGY BEAR NOTE….:)…..HAVE TO RUN ERRANDS AND HOPE TO CATCH HIM LATER TODAY…I LOVE MY ENERGIZER PBO….SMOKIN’ EARS AND DANCIN’ SHOES!….SINCERELY…RAINBOW SOX!
If I read the Times correctly, the TPP has already been approved by both the House and Senate committees for fast track.
What is the squawking about? Is the emo plan to carry on like lunatics about a done deal? I don’t get it.
New Kinloch mayor blocked by police from entering city hall
POSTED 9:43 PM, APRIL 23, 2015
KINLOCH, MO (KTVI) – Our Fox 2 cameras were the only ones there as the newly-elected Kinloch mayor was greeted by police for her first day on the job.
Betty McCray was not only prevented from entering city hall, she was also told she’d been impeached before she got a chance to start.
McCray ran for mayor in the April 7 election and won.
After the election results were certified earlier this week by the St. Louis County Board of Elections, Kinloch’s outgoing administration refused to allow the city clerk to give McCray the oath of office, claiming voter fraud.
“Today is the first day that that the city hall door has been unlocked. They keep it locked,” McCray said. “You got to beat and you got to bang (to get in). They have an officer police sitting right at the door.”
On Thursday, McCray was ready to start on the job, but was met with strong resistance. Fox 2 was there with McCray when she showed up at city hall, where she was greeted by more than 20 Kinloch police officers.
I don’t know if there are RWNJ’s behind this one 99ts. There are approx. 499 people in this small town near the ST. Louis airport and it is 98% AA. It smells of corruption with the old administration when the losing party won’t play by the rules. I looked up the town and saw the video. How in the hell do you impeach someone before they take office…Lord don’t give the GOP any ideas.
Anyone who talks about voter fraud and impeachment when they lose an election are my definition of RWNJs. I gather in this small town people actually decided to vote – that is what upsets the “old school”. Is this the same town where the police and others resigned on mass? If so it seems there is much to hide as to what has been happening.

Morning everyone! Sorry for my monster huff yesterday, PBO’s speech and demeanor at the OFA thing did my head in, the treatment of him by his own party is just too much. If the prospect of a GOP President wasn’t so horrific, I’d say **** the Democrats.
Thanks a trazillion to Nerdy for last night’s wonderful posts, and to her and LL for preparing posts for today – I almost forgive them for being Chelsea fans. Almost.
And most importantly, an update on Danny’s new hedgehog:
I actually can’t find the rest of him, I’m trusting that he’s lying around the house somewhere, rather than being lodged in Danny’s tummy.
Why do I keep buying these things?
That’s a very good question. 😕
This cotton mess on the floor looks like either a poodle or a schnauzer to me…maybe he’s trying to tell you he’s like a friend…. 🙂
Well he can flippin’ do without a friend – look what happened the hedgehog! 🙂
I feel your pain! Those kinds of toys for him are useless..In 5 minutes, Sadie destroyed a toy that labeled itself ” indestructible”….shreds of it were all over the place. You might have to get him one of these…

Ah yes, toys labeled ‘indestructible’! 🙄
DF, I actually got him a toy like that, but he had NOOOOO interest in it because it couldn’t destroy it!!!
Oh dear….. 🙂
um……nice toy…….um……..ok……..bye
Stoooooop:)
What?
I see you!! 🙂 🙂 “Nice toy” ….
Wow, Df, that really does look like a poodle to me! What do you know, DannyO has artistic talents! With this new information him gathering sticks etc so conscientiously is beginning to make some sense – he’s likely building a supply so he can create wood art. I bet Chips will change her tune when she starts to see the potential of his sculpted pieces – probably (witn $$$ signs in her eyes) she’ll give him an entire room to use as his workshop.
Goooooooal morning Chips. The hedgehog is in the Toy Emergency Room. Does he have Obamacare insurance?
GGail, I fear even Obamacare couldn’t save the little fella ….. who I still can’t find 😯
Moooooooorning!
DEAR CHIPS…I KNOW SOMETIMES THAT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO MOVE FORWARD WHEN WE SEE POOR TREATMENT OF THE PRESIDENT….HOWEVER…I KNOW WE WILL UNTIL HE EXITS THE WH…….THAT’S THE ONLY REASON I HANG ON IS TO HAVE HIS BACK UNTIL HE IS GONE…:)
I’m with ya Sue, I’m with ya 🙂
WHOA. Danny is a MACHINE!
Chips, I felt every bit of disgust you did. It really leave a deep gnaw in the pit of my stomach. And as you say, if it weren’t for the total insanity and destruction promised and evidenced by the GOP, I’d wash my hands clean of this entire political “system.”
I DO hope you find hedgehog’s spare parts!
You know Meta, I’d quite like Danny to do to some of these Democrats what he did to the hedgehog.
You said it all:
I’m with you!
I’ve been so busy lately – what happened?
It’s the whole Warren thing over the trade deal 57, apparently she’s now even fundraising off her opposition to the President – while implying he’s either being dishonest, or doesn’t understand the implications. And O’Malley is at it too. This is the level of loyalty PBO gets from his own party after everything he has done.
Gee, how about she meet with PBO and get some actual facts?
This “all trade deals are BAD” is simplistic and childish. U.S. must be part of this conversation.
It’s the “public option” hysteria all over again. It cost us the 2010 election, which gerrymandered the districts.
I have taken to turning off progressive radio because this is all they talk about.
Tell me exactly how the GOP’s media disses their own party and leaders over and over again?
“It’s the “public option” hysteria all over again.”
It truly is, 57. It’s her tone in all of this that is so objectionable, just playing up to the leftbaggers’ distrust (or worse) of PBO. I can’t get over her.
And I am sick to death of the deification of her and the left’s stubbornness that there is only one candidate to love, and otherwise they won’t vote. What the eff does it take?!?!

Thank you again for your response.
Hahaha OMG, Did it last 24 hrs? ROFLOL 😂 😂 😂
Actually RanMan, if you exclude the time he was out walking and the time he was sleeping, it was waaaaaaaaaaay less than 24 hours!! 😆
My dogs once ate my whole tempurpedic mattress: handfuls of compressible foam all over the room when I came home. They did not have the excuse of being puppies either. Guess Danny should give up on stuffed toys😍
I thought the OFA group was supportive and was glad that POTUS called out the Democrats’ fraudulent opposition to TPP. Bunch of Neanderthals. Almost as bad as GOP hacks
“My dogs once ate my whole tempurpedic mattress” – OMG Taiping!!!! 😆 I am now going to lock every bedroom door!!!
Whoa, an entire mattress!!!
What were their expressions/dog-body language was when you got home and discovered how they spent their day?
Railroad logs, steel girders. Nothing less sturdy than that.
Ha, you’re right 57, they’re the only hope!
Any progress on the mortgage issue?
I think we are down to just one requirement. Underwriters do not understand self-employment, and they REALLY don’t understand the work Mr. 57 and I do and what clients pay him to do. At least the broker got them to go back pretty much to the rules that our application was grandfathered under. It’s been an ordeal.

Thanks for asking, my friend.
First!! Good Morning 😉
Morning everyone:)
Good Morning Chips & Where is Danny? LOL. You have such a doggie struggle.
Chips I think all of us were upset by all that was going on. It was sad to see President Obama looking so downtrodden
Exactly Terri, it just seemed like he was despairing of these people, after everything he has achieved. Infuriating.
I know I keep saying this but it does keep getting reinforced: If I weren’t living through this, I would never ever believe it.
I will never forget or forgive the way Democrats have treated President Obama. Never. Ever.
GM Terri, I saw resolute in PBOs demeanor and I appreciate the truth he spoke.
I didn’t see the OFA stuff. Guess I will go back and see what the hell is going on.
It’s worth it Roberta – really a sincere and down to earth talk to OFA crowd.
Good morning Ms. Chips, Danny and TOD family, I hope all is well with everyone this lovely Friday morning.
To all, I hope you have an absolutely blissful outstanding day today. TGIF ❤ ❤ ❤
Thank God that President Obama is still the President of The United States of America. ✩ ✩ ✩ ⭐🚀 ⭐🚀 ⭐🚀
Moooooooooorning RanMan!!
Good Morninng BFF and TOD. I hope PBO goes after them tomorrow night.
Good morning JER oh it’s gonna be sweet tomorrow night 😊
👿
Hahaha!
LOLz!
Thank you, JER!
❤
I AM NOT MISSING THIS………………….:)
GM TODville,
Still catching up, out of breath from PBO’s masterful address to OFA yesterday. #TrustBarack.
Vicki mentioned this last night, which I had not seen/heard:
“I will forgo cable tv tonight but I am betting that little or no mention will be made of Iran turning its ships around and going home. PBO and his foreign policy— once more—-Just Right.”

P.S. – Sorry about Danny’s (once-adorable) hedgehog. 😦
Thank you for your hedgehog condolences arapaho415!! 🙂
Good morning Arapaho and TOD.
NOT a single word in the NY Times this morning about averting conflict with Iran.
“Standoff over” is not news if it includes the necessity of mentioning the brilliance and effectiveness of President Obama’s foreign policy.
A tweet a day later is not much credit where credit it certainly due.
Welcome back refreshed, Chips. We all will keep it together at least until January 20, 2017. Right??
Ha, we will Vicki – after that we can collectively lose the plot!! 🙂
Thank you NW for you Phenomenal Rant…said the things that are in my heart as well…
Pf, I do hope somebody wakes up very soon and realizes the profound truth of what you’re saying. The Democratic candidate NEEDS the Obama coalition and will not succeed without it. Those who take that support for granted are doomed.

It really is unforgivable Meta, at a time when the GOP is at its most deranged in history, she’s fundraising off her opposition to the most liberal President ever on this issue? Repulsive, she’s turning in to the Jane Hamsher of the Senate.

Its always “voter fraud” when the RWNJs lose an election.
