Hi Chips. Always love to watch the President award Medals. Thank you.
Hiya J4O! You picked a fine time to lead these folks here! Congrats! :-D
Oh dear.
Oh shock of shocks. :roll:
Thanks Chips for a new Post.
Congrats J4O on your Solid Gold :star:
Thanks Chips! Has The Evil One let you off work for the day yet? :-D
Thanks President Obama!
MN, Yes!
With Coupon and X2 Tuesday………It was nice filling the Tank today :)
I paid $1.89 to fill up my Prius yesterday!
Don’t hate, appreciate! :-D
It’s about 80 cents more here in SoCal and I was totally stoked getting gas at $2.69 (some California slang for you). Love my Prius; I fill up every two weeks or so :-) …. now with only $15
I’m thankful for PBO this TDay
“I’m thankful for PBO this TDay” << THIS!
Oh no, not Adam Chandler!! So sad.
I remember David Canary, he play the role of Adam Chandler on All My Children. He also play on the western tv show Bonanza.
Aww No! Not Adam/Stuart Chandler! One of my favorites…terrific actor. RIP.
:roll:
Ladies and Gentlemen, The President of the United States and Mrs. Michelle Obama!
The ceremony has begun - here is our President! :) :)
POTUS got jokes! “getting all verklempt” :-D
Those who know what I’m talking about, know what I’m talking about.
Phone ring while POTUS is speaking about Steven Spielberg’s accomplishments, without missing a beat, PBO says somebody’s calling to pitch Steven a movie idea right now “There’s this good-lookin’ President…” [room bursts out in applause!]
I love My President! <3
President Obama: “…it’s because of giants like Willie (Mays) that somebody like me could even think of running for President.”
Darn! Have to go color my hair now. I’ll look forward to watching the ceremony later (thank you Chips and TOD)…
When a husband and wife receive the presidential of freedom in the same ceremony (Gloria & Emilio), it’s an extra-HONOR!!! :)
A babe was born in a manger….
James Taylor with the Carolina Blue tie! Forever Tar Heel! :-D
Right on Dudette.!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice touch playing the music from ET in the background after POTUS is done congratulating the recipients! :-D
ET - Home Phone! :)

No pursed lips in that household. Papa gets an award; Mama gets an award! :-D
I remember that! I’ll never forget Shirley Chisholm!
Nerd Girls Squeeeee!
Terrific ceremony! Despite all the world troubles, the president seemed to enjoy himself. He has enough tough stuff to do. This is a lovely respite.
It’s respite for us too, v! It’s never a bad time remember what’s good about this country. The struggles and achievements of these extraordinary Americans reminds us what it’s all about. These people, and so many others like them, who have made and are making America great! I’m thrilled to see the beautifully diverse representation of the American tapestry that the President has honored today! We should be proud of all of them, including our PBO!
Agree 100%. These events are meant to uplift all of us.
MSNBC is showing protests in Chicago, after the video of the murder was released and shown. This will now be another test for the Chicago police. The whole world is watching.
Horrific video - everyone must decide for himself/herself if they want to watch it - and #LaquanMcDonald is trending #1 on twitter:
Thanks JOB. I’ve decided not to watch it but my heart goes out to his family and the people of Chicago. This is simply deplorable that a human life can be treated so callously by someone who swore to serve and protect. It makes me sick to my stomach.
I was later thinking that maybe I shouldn’t have dropped it here, but believe someone had asked that it be posted and I had that in the back of my mind. Saw the short clip on MSNBC, which was proof enough, and didn’t watch this, either. God save us all from these wretched people. Hugs to you, Donna.
Not going to watch it…I can’t…i just can’t
Understand. Sorry I posted it on this nice thread!
.i suppose we need to see…but i just am not able to
J’OB, no need to be sorry for posting this. For me, because I completely cut off cable and I rarely watch network news, I was not aware of this despicable incident.
Thanks, nath. Here’s to brighter days!
I can’t / won’t watch.
How cool is that! Hi, Chips. So nice to see all that beauty among all the crazy stuff that’s going on! I think I shall concentrate on that ceremony, next.
That is one great piece. Sad to say it’s all true. Thanks, Bob.
He was murdered and don’t forget the co-conspirators all those cops that lied and erased the tape from businesses that caught the entire event.
It’s all so horrific! And to take more than a year to bring charges …
Sitting here with an incredible view of the moon rise: which brings me to a reality check, older than mankind: Full Moon approaching, tomorrow, Wednesday 25th November, 2015. 3.20 in Gemini, 5:44pm EST. 2:44pm PST. And that is the facts. If you can see it, it is staggeringly beautiful!! I think I will take a little break and just sit with this awe. <3 _/|\_ :bear: <3 {{{{{ TOD }}}}}
How’s your daughter MP?
Chat away

Hi TOD. I got home and watched the Presser and was very pleased, but not surprised to see that PBO and President Hollande were in agreement.
“No” to boots on the ground.
“No” to a no fly zone.
OK. Warmongerers—(D) and (R) Including the awful 2016 candidates from both parties,
You can sit down now and please be quiet. Nobody wants to hear that you are calling for no fly zones. Let alone advocating for American troops going to Syria.
None of the current crop has a single Good idea that POTUS hasn’t already put in place.
(((((((((((((((((((( Lots of hugs and prayers for MightyPamela and daughter)))))))))))))))))))))HZ
