Thank you, Jackie!

LIVE NOW: VP Biden speaks at White House Summit on Climate
Once again got caught leaving my comment at the end of a ghost thread… :-)
~~~
Checking into and refreshing TOD and Googling often today, credit card handy, ready to donate to the Biden 2016 campaign the MINUTE he announces. As I commented before, if he decides not to run, I will vote for the Dem nominee, but will be sending my donation dollars to the Obama Foundation.
But I’m feeling pretty hopeful, excited, ready-to-be-totally-stoked that he is running…(Southern Californian here :-) )
Hmmnnn…… I’ll need to finally get my car washed, in preparation for a bumper sticker…
I’m with you MadameSoph!! Ready to donate.
Madame Soph, if VP Biden announces he’ll run, I’m hoping that Dudette will post the Hallelujah chorus, because I will be standing up and clapping.
I’ll be on that stage with you, jackieG!
Jackie, that’s so funny. My mom and I used to go to the local “Sing Along with the Messiah” every Christmas. I know every Soprano part of Handel’s Messiah and some of the alto parts too (my mom’s an alto).
Here’s a flash mob version to get us in the mood - not for the holidays - but for VP saying “Yes” :-)
Oh, Madame Soph, this is perfect!!! Let’s play this the moment VP Biden makes his announcement and ask everyone at TOD to stand up and try to sing along. We will make one heck of a joyful noise, even if we’re off key.
:-)
When we hear it from The Man Himself, then we will know it to be true. Ignore all the gasbags. Have debit card, will donate. Small donor cash will flow into the campaign fund like a tsunami, breaking all records (for this cycle). VPB has considered all the ‘commentary’, all the ‘opinions’, all the rhetoric, do any of them really think he doesn’t know what he’s doing?
BEST FLOTUS EVAH
that’s a stitch! cute! :D
meta, what will be do without our POTUS and FLOTUS? I don’t even want to think about 2017. :(
meta, what will we do without our POTUS and FLOTUS? :(
annieb, I think if our next President isn’t Joe Biden, I’ll just go up the mountain and take a Rip Van Winkle nap :-)
Make sure you have enough room for me to stop by for a visit once and awhile.
Absolutely the coolest, most beautiful, most compassionate, most effective FLOTUS in my lifetime!
Oh how so very cute! I just love love love that First Lady <3
Afternoon, Everyone :)
Oops, They Did It Again: While Attacking Clinton, House Republicans Out CIA Source
http://www.politicususa.com/2015/10/19/oops-again-attacking-clinton-house-republicans-cia-source.html
Gowdy is incompetent .
Should have refreshed - my post below fits just right with yours Linda. :)
Hahahaha - cryin’
“I would say in some ways these have been among the worst weeks of my life,” Gowdy told Politico in an interview published on Sunday night. “Attacks on your character, attacks on your motives, are 1,000-times worse than anything you can do to anybody physically — at least it is for me.”
There seems to be a relationship with Pot and Kettle in there somewhere.
Crybaby Gowdy. ! He should go back to doing guest spots on Forensic Files.
Oh, Trey, you cut your teeth on attacking other people’s character and motives, especially if that person’s name was Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton. Don’t like how it feels? So sad, too bad.
Howdy is another cry baby hypocrite! The entire rationale for the GOP Benghazi freak-out is to attack the character and question the motives of President Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Sorry for the typo! I meant to write Gowdy not Howdy.
They can give it out - but when the tables are turned - just “not fair”
Thanks Nena, for posting the clip about the Eddie Murphy Mark Twain Prize on the last thread.
I was so excited to hear him hint about the possibility of doing stand-up again! Sounds like he’s ready to come back soon! It would be wonderful to hear Eddie do his take (as only he can) on “today”.
The special will be broadcast November 23rd! Can’t wait!
Just, please, no more “Pluto Nash”-type movies.
Oh please. Everyone should be allowed to be involved in crappy movies - goodness knows there are enough of them that involve other people. I can name a few that crashed and burned just recently…
I just remember being 13 and laughing my ass off to the vinyl (YES, VINYL!) of “Delirious” and “Raw”. (Thank god my parents didn’t speak much English.)
This is awesome:
Afternoon everyone.
So, #BoycottStarWarsVII was started because its diverse cast promoted #WhiteGenocide or something. Of course, the tag has been taken over by us people who don’t see an imminent threat of white genocide, and like to take the piss out of racist douchebags.
so canooks, quo vadis?
Wonder if they’ll release results as they come in or wait until the polls out West close up. I think the latter.
nope, the former. some court ruled against common sense. quelle surprise.
in one hour.
OMG OMG OMG!!!!
It’s great that twitter world enables us to touch those we think almost untouchable. That is so cool.
Indeed it is! :-)
I just heard on Inside Edition that VPB says he is running and will make a formal announcement soon. Seems fishy to me. What do you all think?
Hard to say. I do hope it is true.
Congrats Don on your Golden :star:
Why is this so Funny to me?
I bet his campaign director laughed as well.
Jim Webb knows that there is ZERO chance of him being elected president as an independent! So, the only reason he would run is to divide the Democratic Party and hand the election to Republicans.
As Col Morris Davis said…….. ;)
It’s Gowdy Doody Time ;)
ohhhh LAWD….
With a face like that….only his mother will cast a vote for him, whether he’s running as a GOPer, Dem or Indy.
smh…this is certainly wacky presidential race….feeling the absence of the President….simply amazing how his absence is felt so deeply…
:D :D :D :D :D
President of what …. Pluto, Mars, Venus …. ………..
:-D https://youtu.be/l5Y-kyo5l3o
Redux
Prettyfoot, Jim Webb must be trying to emulate Strom Thurmond (1948), or George Wallace (1968).
this Presidential race is surreal…perhaps it has always been that way…ans i just never noticed
This is fierce. Paging Annie Lowery……..
LOVE these events!
WHOA!!!
#LetsRollJoe
And this, too:
typo corrected …
I would like the Drone registration to require that identification numbers/letters be placed on the top and bottom of the drone so it can be spotted and reported when a drone is in restricted areas or interfering in flight patterns
FYI Chips … the CEO to the left of PBO is Loretta Rosenmayer - she founded and has built a very impressive energy sector company - http://www.intren.com/index.php/home
So it’s official…

What’s that mean?
don’t know but he deleted the tweet
Pierce has a piece that says the VP might spoil all the good that he has done if he runs…i wonder why no one said that about Sanders …Clinton…or O’Malley
Isn’t this highly irritating?
“undo the good?!?”
The pundits and politicos opining on why VP Biden shouldn’t run are not endearing themselves to any but the ClintonCamp at this point.
Seems like a risky move to me.
More harm than gain.
i would guess that PBO and VPB are ignoring them all, as usual.
Once again, Pierce’s cleverness with words is as consequential as a flea fart ……….
I am sick of these media pundits trying to dump on VP Biden so as to disuade him from running for president. Without a doubt, VP Biden, with more than than 30 years in the U.S. Senate and 7 years as VPOTUS, is the most qualified person to assume the presidency.
I don’t recall any one trying disparage John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Richard Nixon, Hubert Humphrey, Walter Mondale, George H.W. Bush, and Al Gore - all of them were VPs- because they elected to run for president. Why the double-standards about VP Joe Biden?
If VP Biden decides to run, I intend to support him 100 percent.
“A little over a year ago, the Russian government committed an international crime, unprecedented in the 21st century world — it invaded and annexed territory from another sovereign country. The annexation of Crimea was overt, shameless, and illegal. Here are 10 things you need to know about the region, its people, and what has happened there over the last year: ”
Damn, why couldn’t I still be on active duty, stationed at HQMC? During the 80’s I pulled additional duty as a WH social aide — Reagan & Bush’41; could stand either of them, however, it was The White House… LOVED the experience…
I imagine you have some wonderful stories with those experiences. As you say it is The White House.
I do!
Love it! Wish I was there!!!
:-) COL (chuckling out loud)
Poor Jim Webb! He must have slept through PBO’s landslide wins in 2008 and 2012!
Here’s the White House star-watching this evening - due to go live at 7:35PM! Enjoy :)

Thanks HF!
I love this President! Who else would have “astronomy night”? What other administration would have a “Pollinator Task Force”?
We are truly blessed to live during this time!
Heads up

I’m just nutty-dancie-giddy over Astronomy Night! I can’t control myself! :-D :-D :-D
