The Obama Diary 
Thank you NW. This story did make me cry. I miss the Obamas..
I was heartbroken after listening to President Obama giving that speech for Cass Sunstein. It made me miss him, his family and his administration so much. We had qualified people running departments instead of corrupt ones only interested on making money for themselves and the industries that they are supposed to protect us from. Yet 40% of this population still support Trump.
h-t: BJ
This should make you smile.
Bravo, Sista!
Serve your constituents 🙂
PHOTOS: Mariah Parker takes Oath of office

Mariah Parker takes her oath of office for County Commissioner District 2 with her hand on the autobiography of Malcolm X and her mother Mattie Parker by her side on the steps of City Hall in downtown Athens, Ga. Tuesday, June 5, 2018. Parker filled the county commissioner seat vacated by Harry Sims who left his seat to run for mayor. She won the election for District 2 by 13 votes. [Joshua L. Jones/Athens Banner-Herald]

Here’s another story about Ms. Parker (and other Athens women now active) from earlier this year.
This story is but one example that shows the decency of Barack Obama as a HUMAN BEING.
and, this is something SO lacking now.
i really enjoyed this story
I worry so much about the Integrity of our elections….what is being dome to make sure that this will not happen in November
This is not your Mom ‘n Pop burger negotiations…is it? I want to know what you stand to profit by any “deal”.
See me after class and write I am not, nor have I ever been a numbskull, one thousand times.
I can’t wait when his people say that “he’s too busy presidenting” when he watches TV and tweets all day. The most he looks forward to is the weekend so he can play golf. Plus that’s the only time the American people are safe from him.
I want to move to a tropical island when I retire….Costa Rica, anyone want to join me?
Trust me:) I’ve thought about it
i feel you very much….but climate change might have repercussions for the island nations
CC will have repercussions everywhere. I saw a PBS documentary about Louisiana 9th ward and how much land is being taken over by rising ocean.
wow
Ahem…reporting in from a tropical island. 🙂
Here’s how I look at it. Everywhere there are storms, quakes, twisters, something. So even when there’s something awful, at least I’m dealing with it in Hawaii. LOL
That was a GREAT story, thank you NW. Tears here. It is a better day any day I read about President Obama and who he is.
GOOD! Never give ANYONE a license to discriminate.
Remember this in November. Take BOTH HOUSES!
yup …
…. yup ….
yup ….
Widely reported — Putin says he talks to Trump “regularly”. (CNN)
Hello, TODbots.
I hope all is well with You all.
❤ TODbots.
Just another day in trump’s “America”:
Palate cleanser.
Yet another ‘exhibit’ ….
Not sure if this has been posted here already:
And the intro:
😄😄😄😄
That’s a great way to start the day! What a tidy watermelon eater your dog is!
😍😍😍
Every day a whole raft of new and despicable scandals.
Best LOL of week. Not funny, but Damn if I didn’t fall out 😂😂
WOW!!
Huuuuuuge!
GOP dicktraitors.
Good Podcast…listen for the interview with Ronald Klain…who spoke on the significance of the judges that the Senate is confirming at record pace
GOP Hatch, Gingrich advocated for the individual mandate and Romney implemented it statewide. Both PBO and Romney had a mandate.
McConnell-Trump = Unconstitutional. As for thousands of deaths caused by their games with health care….the numbers are climbing.
😍😍😍
This little guy has done NOTHING wrong. But you can bet he thinks he has. Like Kaepernick said it’s about making us feel bad.
Love to this foster Mom and all the others who truly care for our children.
That one’s so true! Ugh.
“…. but, hold off until after midterms …. ”
As if any sane person needs yet another reason to destroy the GOP in November …
Watching Rachel. Just asking for a friend 😎 If a call from CNBC to iQ45’s architecture firm makes that international firm go “poof”, including their portfolio, could We The People call iQ45 & make them all go likewise? Again, asking for my iQ45-PTSD friend. 😇
Let us all know when you know! 🙂
Worth a try!
Totally true …
An oldie but goodie ….

Am sure Melania Trump is all smiles after Rudy tossed her under steamroller earlier today, as it launched a flurry of reminders of her ‘professional (cough cough) career’ …….
The trouble w/ the ACA is too many ordinary American lives have been saved = the KOCH-Death Party-trump see that as ‘unconstitutional’.
Looking forward to Trump and his mini-me’s facing charges of racialized hatred and Crimes Against Humanity.
That last part sounds good to me!
This is so exciting! This is giving me hope again! Thanks, Bob.

Ahhh. Good times.
Here’s the full speech … and another look at the “looks of love” on everybody’s faces!
Not some, ALL. AND ALL THE GOP(Greedy Oligarch Putos),thank you very much… and for decades mind you. They don’t get a pass. It ain’t just the illegal admin squatting in the White House.
Yup ….
Yes, he’s an idiot …. but, he’s also a CRIMINAL that has NEVER been held accountable …. until ‘real soon,’ hopefully ….
You know, in the end all of us have “pre-existing conditions.” The only one I know about now, at age 74, is diabetes 2. I’m feeling fine right now: I take my meds, eat sensibly, and all the rest. But, at some point, I will die, just like everyone else. And, for most of us, it won’t come “gently” in the middle of the night – just a continuation of a good night’s sleep. There will be problems before whether or not they can be attributed to a “pre-existing condition.”
I’ve never understood this nonsense about “pre-existing conditions.” We all have them (it’s called being alive) and we all deserve decent medical care. Does this mean that the moment your doctor discovers a chronic medical problem, a person should no longer receive good and affordable medical care? I guess for Republicans that’s the way it is because Republicans never get sick, never weaken or die. But, at some point, even Republicans will wither and disappear.
What is needed in the US is universal health care, not heath care for those who are for the time being in “perfect health,” a most elusive state of being at best.
😍😍😍
For real …. big time …
Goodnight TOD ….
Goodnight, Bob, TODville – and all the ships at sea!
😍😍😍
Bob! 😘
I woke to the news that Anthony Bourdain is dead. Suicide. We have lost another icon. My thoughts go to his family and friends….my thoughts also went to his remarkable piece inVietnam with President Obama…
We have a problem. If you need to talk, there is help…
omg df,, that is terrible news. I am so sorry for him, his loved ones.
It really is… it really, really is
That’s a wonderful photo. You have the sense that each person in that meeting feels equal to every other person.
Another day and another tragedy. Woke up, clicked on Twitter and found out about Anthony Bourdain’s death from a apparent suicide. Mental illness is a scourge that is robbing us too much and way too much than we can afford. The last frontier is the human psyche and we need to put more time and treasure in to understanding it.
Such a shock. What a loss to the world!
Ugh!!! this is a shocker!!!
The last frontier is the human psyche and we need to put more time and treasure in to understanding it.
YES!
UGH, I feel sick. He was such a brilliant culinary genius and a man with strong opinions about life.
Indeed.
Wow!

thanks meta. Obamacare saved my young daughter’s life – preventive care caught cancer very early.
Oh, thank you for sharing that bridgeriverpass. There are so very very many stories like yours.
One of the things I loved about Bourdain is he shared the spotlight by acknowledging all the hard-working Mexican immigrants who make ALL of our restaurants the best functioning places to work.
New post.
