Hello TOD on a Thursday Partly Cloudy intermittent snow flurry day.
Congrats HF2 on your Solid Gold ⭐
Congrats to all the Gold ⭐ winners since last night.
So a 32yrs old Greedy Basta*d is arrested today? KarmaCeutical 😉 In_deed!
I’ve been loving playing today’s Google Doodle! You arrange the pages of his sheet music for him after he slips on horse doodoo and drops them. I don’t read music, but you can play each tune until you figure out what order to put the notes in by sight. It kind of teaches you how to sight read.
After you have completed all three pieces if music, the orchestra plays “Ode to Joy”, which I am dedicating to 57 and Nickelby today!
I’ve always thought he would be the right man at the right time. President Obama has been an EXTRAORDINARY president, himself the right man at the right time. But his kind of very intellectual demeanor, his sophisticated and nuanced leadership has more difficulty to connect with a certain segment of the population. And, sadly, the fact that he is a black man has made so many americans reluctant to support him.
The more populist style of Joe Biden would make wonders at this time where THE CONSTANT PEDDLING OF FEAR AND HYSTERIA has created a climate where a good segment of the population isn’t able to think straight and respond to reason; they just want, consciously or unconsciously, a daddy figure in the Oval Office. And a man who wears his emotions on his sleeve.
So sad that circumstances prevented VP Biden from running.
P.S. In this climate and with the potential of “Clinton fatigue”, I think Hillary will be able to make it to the Oval only if Trump goes independent. There I said it.
THERE ARE NO DEMS RUNNING THAT CAN DEFEAT WHAT A GODLESS SOCIETY PREFERS…DONALD TRUMP IS RIGHT UP THEIR ALLEY AND THEY ARE I’M AFRAID…GOING TO GET A ‘WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND’ DOSE. GOD IS IN CONTROL OF YES…EVEN POLITICS…HIS DESIRES FOR THIS PLANET…GOOD OR NOT SO GOOD WILL PREVAIL BECAUSE TIME OBEYS THE ‘GREAT I AM’…WHO CREATED THE UNIVERSE AND ALL THAT BREATHES!
No forcing of anything was implicated in my comment. I understood exactly what he said when he spoke about his decision. Doesn’t mean I can’t still be sad about it.
UNFORTUNATELY…AMERICA HAS BEEN SPECIALIZING ALOT IN SHAMEFUL ACTIONS EVER SINCE PBO ENTERED THE OVAL OFFICE…TODAY…I WAS STANDING IN GROCERY CHECK-OUT…ANOTHER PIECE OF TRASH INQUIRING MINDS NEED TO KNOW MET ME AT THE REGISTER…HEADLINES READ OBAMA THE SECRET MUSLIM HAS TERRORISTS WORKING IN THE WHITEHOUSE…SOME DERANGED SOUL IS GOING TO TAKE THAT TO BE TRUTH AND TRY ANOTHER JUMP OVER THE FENCE…IT NEVER ENDS.
Big News Week for USA/Cuba relations:
1) USA/Cuba agreeing to direct mail air service—previously mail went through third country
2) 110 RT flights per day!!!
3) 17 more detainees on their way out of Cuba
4) Rumors that the GOP anti-ending embargo campaign is easing up.
All good steps towards normalizing relations.
Neo-cons and their arrogant nation building My Way or The Highway routines have lost in Cuba.
It was literally freezing cold last night here in sunny SoCal. And I am using the word literal in its literal, not emphatic, sense! 32 degrees farenheit last night. Planning on getting an extra electric heater today; hope they’re not sold out.
Lifelong Southern Californian — freezing weather inland not uncommon here.
East of San Diego, our pipes would periodically freeze overnight, and a few years ago had a devil of a time getting into my car (parked in driveway) because of overnight rain, then below freezing — car covered with a solid sheet of ice, which I’ve never seen before (about 9-10 miles from Pacific).
38F at daybreak this morning. Conservative by nature and don’t like turning on either heater or A/C, grateful for ski pants and down vests/jackets.
Yeah, being near the foothills I am not a stranger to occasional freezing temps, but I usually expect those in late Jan/Feb. In fact, one of the coolest things about SoCal in the winter is seeing snow capped mountains in the background with Palm Trees in the foreground 🙂 I grew up near the beach and I remember once or twice being able to make a snowball in the early a.m. and Mom letting me keep it in the freezer because I didn’t want to lose it 🙂
I guess it just feels early for the coldness this year. I’m frugal with the a/c and heat myself (put two comforters on the bed last night 🙂 )
You’re right that it’s early for freezing temps, but this year has mostly been HOT.
Summer arrived a couple of months early (remember those days of 100F heat in April!?!) and lasted too long (still hot last month).
I’ve read that the LA area and San Diego/Orange County have gotten some rain, but it has mostly bypassed my neck of the woods, unfortunately. There’s been sprinkles for a short duration, but no real rain. 😦
Said to DF awhile ago that I feel like it’s becoming coastal Phoenix here — the hillsides are even browner than last year, and even the chaparral that is evolved to withstand drought looks like its dying, which is a scary thought — our native vegetation would succumb to climate change, replaced by desert vegetation. 😦
Praying that El Nino gets here soon…
P.S. Am bummed that I’m missing PBO on Bear Grylls (since I gave up TV/cable last year). LOVED Alaska when I was there, hiked up to the Harding Ice Field which feeds Exit Glacier and a couple of other trails in the Seward area — all spectacular, with miles of alpine wildflowers, just gorgeous. There’s a similar profusion of alpine wildflowers in California’ El Dorado National Forest (southwest of Lake Tahoe) in mid-July, but the elevation is 10K or so — for me, much easier to breathe on the Seward hikes (elevation only 3K-4K).
WATCHED THE ENERGIZER ON TV TODAY…HE IS SO CORRECT ABOUT A UNIFIED STAND IN THIS COUNTRY…THE IGNORANT AND ARROGANT ONES NEED TO STOP KNOCKING OUR PRESIDENT…FRANKLY…ALL THE TERRORISTS THINK WE ARE NOTHING BUT A CHAOTIC JOKE DUE TO THE ANTI-AMERICAN ACTIONS IN THIS COUNTRY, IT’S NOT OBAMA’S FAULT!
It was Only yesterday, 12-16-15…….late afternoon that I 1st heard about the Dem Debate this Saturday on ABC. Another Saturday night? During Xmas Season? Seriously?
I called the DNC @ 202-863-8000 and left them a lengthy message. DNC with the record Pres Obama has left them should Not be playing defense to GOPers, US News Media and the Emoprogs. Yet they are for they have incompetent Nyashes running this Party Apparatus.
“We, the DNC Overlords, don’t want our candidates seen. We are coming out from under our beds on the Saturday night before Christmas only because we are forced to.
We prefer as low a viewership as possible and would be grateful if you’d agree not to cover this event. Those who persist will be made as uncomfortable as we can get away with.”
They ashamed of being called a LIBERAL.
They are easily spooked and they will easily deny their friends when there is a spec of trouble. They believe every thing reported by the US News Media…….while claiming to be the Smart Party with Compassion. They will argue for both sides, then drop their side and adopt the other Party’s in order to Get Along? They have become Jack of all trades, master of none………where and when dealing with the GOPers, US News Media and Emoprogs.
The DNC and the it’s Apparatus has become Stagnant, Old, Useless and mostly, enablers for the GOPers.
Last @presssec briefing for the year. Tomorrow PBO will take the helm at WHPB before heading to San Bernardino, Hawaii (with the budget deal needing his signature as well).
.@PressSec: If I had a nickel for every time pundits said ACA was under threat, I could buy an actual Cadillac. https://t.co/op59nPvUQJ
Two nights ago, on The Last Word with LO’D, I saw one of your tweets posted as part of the News. I screamed in Joy. I don’t remember the segment. I just saw this over at BWD’s TL and my memory was jogged.
Congrats, Only4RM 😉
It’s ONLY Normal so long as the US News Media keeps this She/He Said and Both sides nonsense. It stops when the US News Media calls them on it and Holds them accountable.

MY FB RIGHT WINGERS ARE NOT EXACTLY STANDING AND APPLAUDING AFTER I SENT A VIDEO ON THE NEW HISPANIC/AFRICAN AMERICAN CHURCH I PLAN TO ATTEND WHEN MOVING IS COMPLETE. IT’S NOT GOOD ENUFF UNLESS IT’S WHITEWASHED!
We must never forget what Bush, Cheney and Rumsfield put this country and the World through for 8 years. President Obama has done an excellent job trying to clean up all of their mess and the shame they brought on Americans.
Ignored by most pundits is the fact that the petroleum industry has nowhere to go but down.
My greatest wish is that the GOP/MSM would wake up and realize they have an obligation to help the US transition to this reality. Instead of mindlessly blocking legislation in support of and ranting about “climate initiatives,” they should support the re-education and hiring of those workers (not the bloated companies) currently employed by Big Oil by the jobs that are opening up in the renewable energy sector.
I believe that the timing of these debates are to benefit the front runner Hillary Clinton…they are to protect her back flank…to prevent another 2008 surprise….to not allow any of the other candidates from gaining any kind of traction….
they will rely on name recognition on the ballot…….
for the DEMS…there does not seem to be much ground organization taking place… what are they doing with the database from the President’s previous campaign…
prettyfoot—yes, the DNC appears to be protecting the Chosen Candidate. (Not that Grumpy Cat is much of a threat, IMHO.)
What jumps out to me is that a Party with confidence in their selection would behave quite differently.
Today @Acosta (Jim Acosta, CNN) asked whether the Obama Administration’s strategy is to zero out the number of prisoners at Gitmo, thereby making Congressional approval of the facility closing a moot point.
The GOP and their supporters have no idea what a black mark this facility is against the US, how inhumane it is to lock up people for decades (!) without ever charging these people with a crime.
Ooooh, can’t wait for that! I don’t think I ever saw a lengthy interview with him before he was elected, but I’ve seen a few since and he’s just top class, I could listen to him to forever!
Flowers/Ferns – an inside garden has them all – reducing our wild 1/4 acre to a 25ft balcony – never thought I would miss anything green (being that I don’t eat anything green).
Justin seems to be the cutest one – next to PBO of course – sometimes it’s nice being the older generation who ogles at the young ones – they make such a change from the old f…ts who usually run governments
A stand-up man, a real gentleman, a thinker, a great leader. I look forward to his meeting(s) with PBO in the coming year. Two great minds, sorely needed in this season of silliness.
So in January the new idiot Speaker of the House will bring a bill to the floor to repeal Obamacare and defund Planned Parenthood. I dislike that Ryan “B” more then I dislike that last speaker

Congratulations, Hopefruit!
And a lovely first you are hf!
Well, second. Thanks Chips!
Congrats on 1st HF.
Some interesting detail here. Like everyone else, Bear Grylls walked away with a lot of respect and admiration for PBO.
Bear is a evangelical? How will this play to the haters who claim to be the same i wonder.
Thanks meta for the reminder. We must all tune in tonight!
The special edition of “Running Wild with Bear Grylls” airs 10 p.m. ET on Thursday on NBC.

Do you know if it is running again? I have a commitment tonight. 😦

Republicans are not known for being consistent. Whatever President Obama wants, they aim for the opposite.
Streaming has begun…our President will be speaking soon!
Dang he should be next Prez! 😓
I’ve always thought he would be the right man at the right time. President Obama has been an EXTRAORDINARY president, himself the right man at the right time.

At this point we just need a Dem in the chair. Simply cannot let the clown car win.

GOD IS IN CONTROL OF YES…EVEN POLITICS…HIS DESIRES FOR THIS PLANET…GOOD OR NOT SO GOOD WILL PREVAIL BECAUSE TIME OBEYS THE ‘GREAT I AM’…WHO CREATED THE UNIVERSE AND ALL THAT BREATHES!
YOU CAN’T FORCE A MAN TO RUN IF HIS HEART IS NOT WHERE IT SHOULD BE…………….IF HE THINKS THE TIME HAS PASSED…IT HAS……………….
No forcing of anything was implicated in my comment. I understood exactly what he said when he spoke about his decision. Doesn’t mean I can’t still be sad about it.
Now, this doesn’t count as a mass shooting. Why not, you say?
ONLY 2 died. Mass shooting is now termed as 4 shots with One dead. Only in USA. Shame!
perhaps the tricky word is “mass” perhaps we should just categorize it as a shooting
I call it terror – terrifying to be driving/walking down a street/road and have someone pass by firing a gun.
UNFORTUNATELY…AMERICA HAS BEEN SPECIALIZING ALOT IN SHAMEFUL ACTIONS EVER SINCE PBO ENTERED THE OVAL OFFICE…TODAY…I WAS STANDING IN GROCERY CHECK-OUT…ANOTHER PIECE OF TRASH INQUIRING MINDS NEED TO KNOW MET ME AT THE REGISTER…HEADLINES READ OBAMA THE SECRET MUSLIM HAS TERRORISTS WORKING IN THE WHITEHOUSE…SOME DERANGED SOUL IS GOING TO TAKE THAT TO BE TRUTH AND TRY ANOTHER JUMP OVER THE FENCE…IT NEVER ENDS.

Well now!
In January, the Dem debate will be on the Sunday night of the 3 day MLK Weekend.
I believe that the timing of these debates are to benefit the front runner Hillary Clinton…they are to protect her back flank…to prevent another 2008 surprise….to not allow any of the other candidates from gaining any kind of traction….
they will rely on name recognition on the ballot…….

What jumps out to me is that a Party with confidence in their selection would behave quite differently.
Regardless of how many people watch these debates, Bernie hasn’t done all that well so far.

You go on and tell it like it is, POTUS!!

Justin Trudeau responds to Donald Trumps hateful rhetoric.
Oh Donna, he is SO impressive
Chips, I’m really liking this guy. I’m so looking forward to the State Dinner sometime in 2016 with our President.
Ooooh, can’t wait for that! I don’t think I ever saw a lengthy interview with him before he was elected, but I’ve seen a few since and he’s just top class, I could listen to him to forever!
Me, too! God forbid any of these republicans win, especially Trump or Cruz, Canada will have to build a wall to keep all of us out!
Think they watched PBO’s talk among the ferns 🙂
😆 Although Justin has flowers too!!!
Flowers/Ferns – an inside garden has them all – reducing our wild 1/4 acre to a 25ft balcony – never thought I would miss anything green (being that I don’t eat anything green).
Justin seems to be the cutest one – next to PBO of course – sometimes it’s nice being the older generation who ogles at the young ones – they make such a change from the old f…ts who usually run governments
🙂 I’m still trying to get past the fact that he looks like the lead singer of a boy band!
A cutie pie – wonder how long before his hair goes grey – or maybe he will just dye it
I think I must be getting old, there’s a time I’d have wanted a hot date with a fella like that, now I just want to mother him 😕
Bless you – I’ll take the date
😆 And when he gets home I’ll comfort him after you broke his heart.
A stand-up man, a real gentleman, a thinker, a great leader. I look forward to his meeting(s) with PBO in the coming year. Two great minds, sorely needed in this season of silliness.
THIS WILL BE BEGGING FOR MIDNIGHT TARGET PRACTICE…WANNA’ TAKE BETS ON HOW LONG IT TAKES?
I have nothing Nice to say, so I am keeping Mute.
I wish him well and hope he recovers quickly from this stroke. With that said, have you noticed that “karma” is on Fire today? Just sayin….
I have thoughts on this……however, I am still biting my tongue.
