I just dropped Bobber off at the Airport, I kind hope he has a chance to see the Shuttle from his plane....

It just occurred to me that I am sitting here moping becuase Bobber is on a business trip until wednesday Night. Ten I remembered that Rep. Giffords just watched her husband leave for space on a business trip. Kinda puts things in perspective.

That's true Mala. It's been a crazy month. On Sunday I am leaving for NY to help my mom out for the week, so I will be away from hiin again.
That reminds me, Regarding us planning a day, I won't be around from the 22nd onto Memorial Day weekend. I guess I'll be mini raptured from NoVa.

The biggest problem I have (listening to the show) is that while the GOP donors are FINALLY getting with the Same sex marriage idea -- it wasn't done because it was simply moral and right to do on it's face. They are doing so because they have had to be shown -- thru family relatives.
I don't have a gay niece, nephew -- or child -- that I know of, and I have always believed that this was the right thing to do. Why does it seem to me that Momma is praising the GOP for FINALLY doing something that was so obvious?
I guess in the end, we are a forgiving sort of people -- liberals.

I found the Mitch Daniels wife story:
Daniels and his wife Cheri divorced in 1994. She moved to California, leaving Daniels with the four daughters, aged 8 to 14, and married a doctor. She divorced again and moved back to Indiana. She and Mitch remarried in 1997.
Cheri has never spoken about this publicly, and from what I can tell it’s been mentioned in print only twice. Daniels’s only comment was to the Indianapolis Star in 2004: “If you like happy endings, you’ll love our story.

I think they call this HOSTAGE taking. Boner has taken the country hostage.

So my understanding is by fiscal sleight-of-hand we can postpone Armageddon until August. Can we start now by not paying Congress (or the oil company / farm subsidies) until The Boner gets off his ass?
Besides, who didn't see this coming when we had the "government shutdown" problem?

Good day everyone. Now I am recovering from a very long day at the salt mine. Enough disasters there including a half-hour delay in the Red Bulls game because of a power failure at the arena which also caused us to lose the production truck so it was a lot of scrambling to stay on the air until we got the feed back.

He dropped out one day after NBC decided to renew his shitty TV show. Sounds like mission accomplished to me.

I just tweeted te following, and I think it bears attention:
This is why I think Huntsman will not run -- the guy is ridiculously rich. Newt is a wildcard. I think he wants more PAC money knowing he will never win. I've yet to see one poll about his possible support.
That said -- T-paw is kinda the same, as is Santorum -- they aren't wealthy people. They are bot easily manipulated and with lack of money would be more than happy to comply with the CoC and the Koch brothers. ESPECIALLY T-Paw. Santorum is looking for serious fundy money I suspect.

BREAKING: (not really) Trump announces not POTUS Run. More waste of damn time. Water is sufficiently muddied up. #p2
Trump & MSM are both ass' for wasting time w/a chump. People r really hurting in America & THIS dominated our news cycle for months. #p2
Why would he run? Being POTUS is not financially lucrative, and after Citizens United, the power of POTUS isn't worth it either. #p2
Just ask Huckabee & Palin They make WAY more money and have far less stress. #p2

Can I PLEASE send some Blog love to Velveeta?
2 of her 4 candidates are not running. I want her to KEEP posting these AWESOME insights.
First off: Mike Huckabee. (GONE)
Part 2: Donald Trump
Part 3: Gov. "Bobby" Jindal. <---let's just say, people never cared about his birth certificate he released without anyone asking for it. I'm thinking this was a proactive elimination by Velveeta. (she may be all knowing, people)
Yesterday, it was Part 4: Ron Paul. This sprite man might be in it for the long haul.... But.
Really, peeps. NO ONE wants to run against Obama.

Santorum will probably go around parading his stillborn in a jar to prove his "pro-life" credentials.
