I saw CNN doing the GOP’s work this morning to push the notion that America doesn’t want the Iran deal.
Of course the people they polled are going to say that Congress should “stop” the deal (which they cannot!)…all they know about is Koch scare ads, and no one in the MSM tries to enlighten the public.
No, it doesn’t.
CNN asked a Blank question w/o any explanation. The Media is deliberately using the CNN poll and ignoring the ABC poll which gave people some information before they answered their questions.
Had my scans done on Monday. The new treatment is working so I won’t have to go back to chemo for now. Bone and breast area has improved a lot but they did fine a spot on my liver. I’ve had spots on the liver for a while and it did go down for a while. This time it went up.
I haven’t been around because I was in so much pain. Area below my spine made it near impossible to sit or walk. I was in bed a lot and was just miserable. My doctors fixed that yesterday. Sent me home with some drugs and they are doing a great job. MAJOR RELIEF.
Thanks for the update. We have all been keeping you in our thoughts for a good report. Thank goodness you’ve gotten some good pain relief so you can take a deep breath!
{{Gobrooklyn}}, I’m so sorry that you were in so much pain. I’m glad that the doctors were able to give you drugs that are able to give you major relief. I’m glad the treatment is working for you. I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Oooooooooooooh GB, wonderfully encouraging news, may it get better and better and better by the day, you are NEVER out of our thoughts, love ya warrior!
Oh, GB, I’m so glad about the good report and very thankful you’ve been given something for the pain. You are an awesome and fearless fighter and an inspiration to us all.
Arizona Cardinals defensive back Tyrann Mathieu teamed up with PETA to star in a public service announcement on the potential consequences of leaving a dog inside a hot car. To demonstrate the danger, the Honey Badger sat inside a car in 90-degree weather. “I seriously couldn’t imagine leaving my dog in the car like this,” he said while still inside.
Mathieu tapped out after eight minutes, when the car reached a scorching 120 degrees. By the time he stumbled out, his T-shirt was drenched in sweatāwhich, as the PSA reminds us, is something a dog cannot do to cool itself off. “If you’re going to make a dog a part of your family, then make him a part of your family,” Mathieu said. “Don’t treat him like you wouldn’t treat someone you cared about or someone you loved.”
I lived in TX for 5 years and I know what a 120 degress looks and feels like. Kept my Megan in the house most of the time. And this goes for children also.
Thanks Chips. I just can’t get caught up today. Gobrooklyn glad to hear you are doing better with your treatment and glad to see you are back with us.
Our President sure had one awesome trip. I am really impressed on what the initiatives are that he is sponsoring in our name in the African Nations. Emos can complain all they want, but he has managed to get everyone involved that wants a piece of the action. So this is what a great Community Organizer does. I agree with thie picture above. I With This Guy All The Way.
there is a proportion of this country that has lost their minds in their drive to increase hatred among people of different races and hang onto the idea of supremacy.
case in point : someone in my TL forwarded a video from Talking Points Memo in which a group of racist in Georgia confront a gathering on people attending a black girl’s birthday party.
Yes, the racist are all flying their confederate rags (multiple flags on each pick up truck).
report says that they were all armed and threatened to “kill y’all N… words”;
I don’t know if it has been brought to TOD’s attention – check Talking Points Memo if you want to see how the police had to intervene before the racist could leave the birthday party-goers alone.
we really have a lot of work to do as we try to build a more fair and just country in which race is not at the core of all that we do and how we treat others.
These people are dying out, period.
Their racism is stagnating them.
They are louder today due to social media. They are nit gaining more converts.
The structural racism remains strong. By all of Us speaking out and calling the cruelty out, We Shall and must make it better.
These are the racists ass people who support Donald Trump. The media tries to tell us that there are people out there who are angry with Washington and Trump is speaking for those people. They are angry right, but that anger comes from the fact that they hate the black President. Trump is speaking for a bunch of racists. Trump is a racists too.
Riley Curry showed off her Whip and Nae Nae moves in honor of her 3rd birthday on July 19, but it looks like sheās got some cute competition. Leah Still, the 5-year-old daughter of NFL lineman Devon Still, challenged Riley to a dance-off via her dadās Instagram Sunday night. āRiley, I saw your video, you think you can Whip better than me?ā Leah says before busting out her own adorable moves to SilentĆ³ās āWatch Me (Whip/Nae Nae).ā
Leah is currently battling stage 4 neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer that mostly affects children under 5, and recently received the Jimmy V Perseverance Award at the ESPY Awards. āIn the five years Iāve been with you, youāve taught me more about life than I could ever do and I love you,ā the Cincinnati Bengals star said while accepting the award on behalf of his daughter.
Attention all you wanabe Presidential candidates, I expect the same work ethic from you as our Great, Current, President Barack Obama has! Also, too, the same compassion, kindness, respect, for all people of the world. I know his level of intelligence is something you can never attain.
So much for any supposed concession that Bibi “got” from PBO.
Mr. Pollard will be confined to the USA for his 5 years of parole. No hero’s return too Israel any time soon.
Both Haaretz and NY Times still announcing that Jonathan Pollard is being released. Not mentioning that released into 5 years of parole in NYC.
Apparently another bitter loss for RW.
Was delighted to see that Haaretz published an article about the video and posted the video to their website ….
“Actors Jack Black, Morgan Freeman, Natasha Lyonne and other celebrities, including Queen Noor of Jordan, are voicing their support of the nuclear deal with Iran in a new video released on Tuesday.
The celebrities in the video urge Americans to contact their members of Congress and encourage them to back the deal, which would be up for a vote in September.
Without a nuclear deal, “ultimately we could be forced into a war with Iran another dangerous drawn out and expensive conflict in the Middle East with many lives lost,” Freeman says in the three-minute video, produced by the Global Zero, a group advocating for the elimination of nuclear weapons.”
Watched that – thanks Bobfr – tried to watch some of Sec Kerry talking to congress (well congress ranting & Sec Kerry present). Could not watch. The world treats PBO and his admin as they deserve. This congress is beyond a joke.
They do that stuff a lot in these hearings. It’s often just a partisan rhetorical soapbox for the cameras without allowing any answers or discussion. A big waste of time.
this is the type of Representation that we have in PA….we are a so called blued state…but we have the GOP representing our state in Congress…and who dominate the State House…obstructing GOV Wolf….
these are the consequences of our citizens NOT voting…

In other word, the American people want the U.S. to go start a war with Iran.
No, it doesn’t.

Scott Walker’s Campaign Stop In Philly Goes Hilariously Off The Rails – http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/scott-walker-cheesesteaks-philadelphia-visit
Sec Kerry is NOT having it:
That Perry guy was trying to shut SoS Kerry up – was hardly allowing space for him to respond! Grrrr! Talk about showmanship!
They do that stuff a lot in these hearings. It’s often just a partisan rhetorical soapbox for the cameras without allowing any answers or discussion. A big waste of time.
GOPs – masters at wasting taxpayer time and money! They abuse the ‘welfare system’ far more successfully than any poor person.
Another Republican jack ass running his mouth.
JackieGrumbacher, is Perry your congresscritter? If so, come get this boy…
š I’d bet he felt quite proud of himself after this – he managed to read all his prepared points into the record.
You know he did!
No, he isn’t, jazz, but ours isn’t much better.
That was a pretty epic eyeroll Kerry laid out, though.
This is who Rep. Scott Perry represents. Oh, look! I see Koch Bros…..

What a disrespectful creep that Congressman Perry is. I’m ashamed that he represents a Pennsylvania district. The Harrisburg area needs to do better.
this is the type of Representation that we have in PA….we are a so called blued state…but we have the GOP representing our state in Congress…and who dominate the State House…obstructing GOV Wolf….
