About Me

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.

Seems to me, that's a good way to handle it.

Pushback OF ALL KINDS is essential!

Add CONSTANT to that. Even more essential!

As for stopping or backing off or taking a break, they don’t.

And they WON’T.

So we can’t.

Yep! And she deserves an "A" too! An "A+".

Gonna be hard to find somebody to move her off the top. They’d need somebody named Aardvark or some such...

It just occurred to me while reading through this thread: "MAN, we have GIANTS on our side..."

Kerry and Gore, Gore and Kerry. They're GIANTS. Smart, bold, ground-breaking (especially Gore), on-active-mode, and loaded with integrity.

(The) dick cheney arrogantly declared "the adults are back in charge" when bush/cheney stole that election and followed Clinton/Gore into the White House. HAH! Well, now WE get to appropriate that statement for ourselves, but in our case, it's actually true. The REAL adults ARE gonna be back in charge. Fifty-eight days from now, by my count today (11/23/20).

Convenient, isn't it!

Rather wickedly convenient, actually!

And there was absolutely no fraud or trickery involved.

That's just how it happens to have "come around on the guit-tarr..." as Arlo Guthrie might say.

Yep. AND his greedy, opportunistic, free-loading God-forsaken family

TOO!

I think it was during one of his frantic pre-election campaign tour

when he was jamming several events (in 4 or 5 different states) into a single day.

Singin’ the ol’ “ladies, please like me!” Desperation Blues.
