No idea. I hope he's okay.

I always liked his posts - what was in them, and the tone of them.

One big "tell" for me is - gee, how odd that all these hackings of emails and

document dumps - are ALL from the Democrats. It's the Democratic Party and specific Democrats who always seem to be the targets.

Anybody notice how this stuff somehow just mysteriously and magically NEVER seems to happen to the GOP...

Welcome to DU, fluffy_bob!

I'm sure his overuse of alcohol and cocaine have taken their toll.

Except for George P. Bush, son of jeb! and the family's great young hope to salvage their

"dynasty" - their family's self-presumed entitlement to the White House.

I heard it said awhile back that these gunner goons may have armed themselves up but good,

but they'd be no match for the 82nd Airborne.

EXCELLENT reference material!

Great stuff - they have a series of these over at that site. Ammo for verbal battles with Trumpsters and other Deplorables.

DAYUM, Grins!

This one's a real keeper!

DAYUM! A tour de force! This is what happens when you stay vigilant and keep track of such stuff. You wind up with a withering collection of horrors that would raise anybody's blood pressure! As well as their outrage!

THANK YOU for checking in, Are_grits_groceries!

That's a relief.

And yeah, she chooses her accessories accordingly. I note her necklaces because I make

most of mine. Longtime beader here. Sometimes she I just really find it fascinating to observe how she expresses herself in her wardrobe. She sometimes wears "statement" pieces - prominent necklaces with large beads or other components.

I just find it all interesting. She's going to be a real style setter, both for and undoubtedly against. I happen to think she presents well, sartorially, for executive women. She doesn't "wear the upholstery" like Laura Bush was often described as doing, and she isn't all Adolfo and other designer-labels the way Nancy Reagan was. Michelle Obama has also been a trend-setter. Remember when she wore J Crew accessories to the first inauguration? AND dressed in non-traditional colors like ochre and green? And those of us old enough to remember - think of Jackie Kennedy. And even farther back for some, Pat Nixon's "good Republican cloth coat." Now that we may well have not another First Lady but a MADAM President, I think it'll have even more of an impact.

About calimary

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.
