He's truly a man whose time has come.

THIS is the kind of thing we all need. A Consoler-in-Chief. Someone who knows pain because he's been punched in the gut. Someone who's pulled himself together even after a terrible personal loss, and soldiered on because people were depending on him. Got knocked down and pulled himself back up - and went on to overcome and even triumph.

Seems like he's EXACTLY what we need for leadership at a colossally terrible and desperate time.

Agreed!

For the life of me I can't understand why the party houses and the big crowded indoor gatherings.

Do you really wanna get sick and maybe die? 'Cause that HAPPENS! Just ask Herman Cain!



Oh wait...

OUCH!!! Man, THAT'S for sure!

A VERY thought-provoking piece.

Thanks for posting this, Heartstrings. It's good for everybody's awareness expansion.

Oh certainly yes. It's an oldie but goodie.

But I've never heard it applied, in public, to the republi-CONS. Especially by a high-profile Dem. Sounds like Nancy knows she's got the upper hand, to be that blunt in a public statement.

"Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn," Pelosi replied.

We should ALL borrow that phrase! And USE it!

And repeat it. MULTIPLE TIMES!!!

WHENEVER you're talking to someone who votes GOP or makes excuses for the GOP in conversation.

“Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.”

"Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn." That's freakin' GORGEOUS!!!!!

Oh Madam Speaker!

You sure do speak for me!
