Ain't it the truth!

April 25, 2017

Meh - my fault, mostly. I noticed another thread breaking the news AFTER I saw yours.

Just sucks, though. I hate seeing good folks leave us.

One thing, though - it's nice to see more than one thread as a tribute. Proves how much he meant to people here.

So sorry to hear this. Will you let us know when the service is?

DAMN.

Welcome to DU, lovemydogs!

I loved Hillary, and still do. She's still My President (in exile).

And to this very hour I still don't understand how or why people can hate her. Just don't see it. Can't figure it out. Especially when so much, if not all of it, stems from LIES told and spread about her. She's become almost a latter-day Joan of Arc figure to me by now. And I STILL want those brains in the Oval Office.

I often wonder if one of the 12 Apostles was gay.

After all, I've read the guesstimates that one in ten humans is gay. There were 12 Apostles, according to what we're taught. They were a bunch of random picks, assembled into the first formal group of followers. Like a board of directors with Jesus as their CEO. They were that era's blue-collar workers, tax collectors, underdogs, average-Joes. He hung out with people who were reviled by "polite society". I see no reason why at least one of His inner circle wouldn't be gay. Simply by the numbers, why wouldn't it work out that way? Law of averages and all that.

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.
