Houston Chronicle: Marcus Davis is resolute. As many times as vandals paint over a mural of President Barack Obama, he will repair the damage over and over again.
“There is an endless supply of paint,” said Davis, 41, who opened The Breakfast Klub in 2001. “This mural is symbolic of the presidency of Barack Obama. He wakes up every day to obstacles and challenges far greater than a doggone mural being defaced. If he has the level of courage and type of character that causes him to continue to go on, I’ll be damned if I stop.”

Thank you Dudette!
Okay people, from here on in, when we’re feeling crap, this will be our motto:
“There is an endless supply of paint.”

HI!
Congrats!! Mary:-)
When I am feeling crap……….I turn to TODS…is as simple as that. I can guarantee you… or you get full refund from Madam Chips :-)
Congrats Mary, what a wonderful person that Marcus Davis is!
hi guys.
Ok, so it’s officially been a month since I moved back to Louisiana. I’ve halfway furnished my apartment. I’ve got cable, internet, electricity and water. I’ve still got some auto stuff to do, but everything’s going as well as possible right now. I’m sitting here marginally watching tv while surfing the net…exactly what I’d be doing in DFW right now, except I pretty much see my younger sisters twice a month. I can drive 15 min to see my grandmother if I just want to hang and I can drive for about 1 hour and spend time with my fam, go to a birthday party for my godkids, hang out and laugh with my cousins and aunts, or just see my mother in person rather than via text message. Life is good right now. Here’s hoping the bottom doesn’t drop out…lol.
Thanks Lamh for the update and so glad to hear that things are coming along and settling down nicely for you in your new home. :)
The bottom won’t drop out, lamh36, but if you think that thought, again, just remember there is an endless supply of paint.
And remember this quote I saw on Twitter: The only time you should ever look back is to see how far you’ve come.
Congrats on how well your move has gone, thanks to YOUR efforts!
Very good to hear this lamh36. Sounds like a good new direction!
No stinkin’ thinkin’ allowed. Everything WILL BE alright. Ya got that?
Hi lamh! It’s so good to hear from you and to know that you’re somewhat settled in your new city/state. Be grateful, be blessed!
Way to go Lamh! Glad to know you are doing well!
Think positive, lamh36 - your life is sounding pretty good right now. Enjoy it!
So Tweety had a segment on Mark Sanford running for Congress. My first thought was will the mistress now wife (didn’t he marry her?) be on the trail with him ala Calista Gingrich, and what will his wronged ex-wife have to say about he candidacy? They are in the same party right?
I think he is engaged but not married yet. I was surprised that Tweety did not mention Stephen Colbert’s sister is running as a Democrat for the seat.
Tweety operates as though he thinks he lives in a novel, rather than covering news, and can only absorb one shiny object at a time, so maybe he just hasn’t gotten to that part of his novel, yet. Good luck to Stephen Colbert’s sister!
Mary1, congrats.
So much positive information here today (warriors-style). I am taking it all in and taking notes.
POB is not playing with these idiots!
You guys are going to love this one! Senator Turtle got duped by epic proportions!
also too: stupidity pretending to be concern.
Wow!!! You can’t make this up…LOL!! can I say “Punked”
Seriously. Senate Majority Leader! Pffft! What an ass!
Senate Minority leader, you mean, right?
Yes, thanks, Betsy! My bad. Thank goodness he’s not “Majority Leader” — oh my goodness!
Betsy - A quick one - You can tell you’re an Obamabot when you see Betsy’s tiny little avatar show up, a little dot of black on a white background, and you know immediately it’s Bo playing in the snow at the White House! That would be me, and that made me laugh!
I love Bo. Glad to make you laugh.
Who doesn’t! :)
Hopefully, some staff member will now whisper in his ear, “Time to retire to the ant farm, Senator?” This guy is the minority leader of the United States Senate! Oh, dear.
I’m writing a new song: “when Ashley Judd goes marching in, Hurrah, Hurrah!”… It’s copyrighted so no stealing y’all, y’hear? :lol:
After much laughter and deliberation, I remove the copyright, and suggest this song could be a blog effort: I can’t seem to come up with anything more than “McConnell takes it on the chin”… But since has HAS NO chin…see my dilemma! :lol:
Yes. Let’s get some lyrics going!!
“Mitch McConnell’s head will spin…”
Freaking moron. HOW could anyone believe that?!
I’m in.
There is an endless supply of paint.
Perfect.
LOVE IT!!!!
Hay PUNKS who messed up the mural, “There is a endless supply of paint”.
If I’m ever in Houston, I’ll be wanting to shake the hand of Marcus Davis.
Me too!
today, I really need to hear that: “There is an endless supply of paint.” (Marcus Davis)
Paint on it’s beautiful!
Love our new motto!
After all, the popular mural across the street from The Breakfast Klub at 3711 Travis has been defaced at least three times by vandals since last October, most recently in late January when someone splashed black and red paint across the 10-foot image of Obama. Artists redesigned and repainted the mural in late January, adding the image of a young, blue-eyed white girl next to the nation’s first black president.
Love it. When Edison’s lab was burnt, he said “Now, all my mistakes are gone too. I can start afresh”.
And just to reiterate: I LOVE my job.
And just to reiterate: We’re glad!
Awwwwwwwww… from one who should have been a librarian, who helped set up and work a library in the back of her fourth grade classroom (our elementary school had no library as such and my teacher wanted it to); who worked in the library of her high school, 3 years, grades 10-12, and whose tuition assistance program at the university included working in the college library and whose daughter has a master’s in Library Science, I applaud you Sir!
You should have been given an honorary degree by now, daisydem!
Yes! I do have a degree … in English Lit, that is close, but I probably should have pursued a career as a librarian because I love libraries.
daisydem - Such a sweet story! I worked in “library service” one year in high school, too, and still have my certificate and I’m 150 years old. But it was too “quiet” for my tastes. However, my niece worked at a library during college, she got a journalism degree but decided to work at the same library as her first job after college, then she got a job writing and editing newsletters for a company (which also includes marketing to libraries), and ever since has belonged to the American Libraries Association, and gives occasional seminars to them during their conventions. She caught the same bug you and your daughter did. The best ever was when she was in Chicago in ’05, covering their convention for her company, and who was the guest speaker? Barack Obama. (Years later, she sent me her newsletter and the story she wrote about him, which I know I’ve posted here before.)
Uh, JO’B, you are not 150 years old…..
It’s okay, thanks - in my mind, I’m 15 and I just added a zero! (Age means nothing to me, as I’m sure it means nothing to you! It just cracks me up that I can remember all that stuff so far back!)
:) I know, that’s why I said it! I nearly added “but we may feel like it sometimes”, decided to leave it as a flat punch line! Sometimes I like to make myself laugh! :lol:
Me, too, with that “make myself laugh” stuff! And keep it up! Hey, I’ll laugh at your jokes if you’ll laugh at mine. Deal? :)
Wow … what an opportunity for your niece (and yes, I don’t know that I have read your niece’s story, so would love to read it sometime) … and all because of libraries. I knew they were great! I just bet that our beloved President has spent many an hour himself in libraries!
Can you imagine being in a library, rounding the corner, and seeing the President? Oh, my.
One quick one on my niece’s experience. She said everyone in the room was totally impressed by Barack Obama’s total grasp of facts and statistics on education, which he presented flawlessly without notes. (Yummy.)
Congrats, Maryl1 on #1.
Chips opened a new thread in record time, so I thought I would bring this over from the end of the previous thread:
@Redistrict has matched 2010 Census Data with current Congressional CDs and has gleaned demographic stats for each. You can imagine what an arduous task this is (because of gerrymandering, it’s not just a matter of looking at counties or zip codes). Here’s his link to that info:
Bottom line:
Great analysis from smartypants again!

I was also trying to find more info on McCain’s Arizona townhall today. This AP article is worthless (referred just to angry citizens, doesn’t say what the citizens were upset about.

I grew up in the San Diego area and in the 1970s my mother and I were stranded in Deming New Mexico (on Interstate 10) for a couple of days waiting “for a part from Santa Fe” for our car. It was a very quiet, sleepy, boring, small desert town. When I stopped there a few years ago, I was surprised at how much it had changed. No longer sleepy, lots of people, and few people spoke English (I reckon that Deming is about 40 miles from the Mexico border).
Definitely not your father’s Deming NM.
They were upset about immigration reform, follow this reporters timeline @dannowicki he was there may shed some more light.
Download the Congressional calendar if you really want to see how hard the House is working:

I see where some Republicans talk about POTUS taking this pass week-end off, or anytime he take a vacation they want to run their darn mouth, but they have nothing to say about the time Boehner and the House take off.
Considering the challenges facing our nation, the schedule for the House is absolutely pathetic.
The speaker and his members are pathetic

Adam proudly replied, “My daddy is a lawyer.”
“Honest?” asked Joshua.
“No, just the regular kind,” replied Adam.

We sure do need some though. :-)
I’ll see if I can scare up a “sea lawyer” or a cousin “jailhouse”. :-D

Is that from the 1970s? Oh, brother, and people fight this kind of good stuff.
Lawd ha mercy, Family! As Paul Harvey used to say… “and now for the REST OF THE STORY”
=====================
I poking around trying to find a twitter handle for Marcus Davis, owner of the Houston restaurant with the mural, Breakfast Klub, when I ran across this tweet. There’s a good news video in the referenced article (worth posting up top, if you can get it Chips)
New Article with video http://bit.ly/ZqasTx
and this other tweet, which led to a slightly older news story with an unfortunate photo of Marcus strapped with an assault weapon (yikes!)
Guess he felt he needed it to “protect” the mural and/or himself. [sigh!]
News Article with photo: http://bit.ly/12JWcGf
A Baptist missionary in Africa was just walking when he heard the ominous padding of a lion behind him.
“Oh Lord,” prayed the missionary, “Grant in thy goodness that the lion walking behind me is a good Christian lion.”
In the silence that followed, the missionary heard the lion praying too: “Oh Lord,” he prayed, “I thank thee for the meal which I am about to enjoy”

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
That is SPECTACULAR!!
I totally agree! Just that one phrase says so much, especially when Chips works her magic around it.
According to a news report, a certain private school in Washington recently was faced with a unique problem. A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom.
That was fine, but after they put on their lipstick they would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints.
Every night, the maintenance man would remove them and the next day, the girls would put them back. Finally the principal decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the maintenance man. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every night.
To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, she asked the maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was required. He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it. Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.
There are teachers, and then there are educators …
Good one.
Very good.
Just e-mailed that to a 5th grade teacher I know!
Disgusting, but effective!
Ha! I was just coming to post that! LOL! GMTA!!! :-)

Yep! He can skidaddle the hell up out of it tomorrow as far as I’m concerned!
That would be sweet. Max Cleland back in the Senate.
Oh, I would practically move there, just to vote for him. There should be a parade WHEN he wins.

I know:-) Wish I was closer to Chicken and Waffles in LA..used to go there all the time:-) Sure miss it.
Goooooood eatin’!
I am going to find any excuse to go to Houston so that I can go Mr. Davis’ breakfast club. The food looks delicious.
:-):-)
Have we seen this Behind the Scenes gallery already? Apologies if it’s a repeat!
Still my fave:
President Barack Obama pauses to look back at the scene before leaving the platform following the inaugural swearing-in ceremony at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., Jan. 21, 2013. Standing behind the President are First Lady Michelle Obama, daughters Malia and Sasha, and Marian Robinson. (Official White House Photo by Lawrence Jackson)
No wait… this one! Yes definitely my fave!
President Barack Obama runs along the Colonnade of the White House with Deputy National Security Advisor Denis McDonough’s children, Jan. 25, 2013. The President announced McDonough will become Chief of Staff, replacing Jack Lew, the nominee for Treasury Secretary. (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza)
I haven’t, so thanks.
This one really stood out for me, too.
I also love the one where he’s looking back at the Inaugural crowd. Very nostalgic.
And look how close their bottles of water were to their hands. Now, that’s preparation. Ha! Love that photo. Love them.
:)
This will make your blood boil. I mean big time!
Grrrr! When is that despicable fucker up for re-election! I’m sending his Dem opponent some of my hard-earned Georgia money.
If he’s a House member, it’s 2014. The Dems better recruit a strong candidate and I’ll join with you in donating.
Good. This is one bum that needs to be thrown out with a heaving thrust!
Dudette, I will be right there with you in donating. These Republicans are pure evil.
Once upon a time she certainly could clap her hands…. And many other natural normal human functions…
the already bat shit crazy goopers at its worst.
LP, People like Heck are completely unworthy to serve in the US House. If there were any remnants of humanity left in the Republican party, he would be publicly condemned by them and censured by the House itself. This is beyond despicable.
A few suggestions for his opponent campaign: Who the Heck is Heck? To Heck with Heck! Get The Heck outta here! Heck, No More.
Well done!
Brilliant!
The right wing has started a meme about this. I heard a caller on Stephanie Miller this morning, and she was bringing up this crap, and apparently another caller had called in earlier with the same. Stephanie had a meltdown. Rightfully.
I know ya’ll loved maddow last night but stay away from her tonight, guys: She’s whining about Gitmo.
I figured she’d be gloating about Hubris, like it was her baby, so I stayed away, anyway.
I watched Maddow tonight, and she actually didn’t do a bad job pointing out that Congress is the problem with closing down Gitmo. she had a young guy on who said that the President is severely restricted from even transferring Gitmo prisoners to third party countries who have agreed to take them after they’ve been exonerated. There are plenty who are just housed there, I guess waiting to die at some point, because Congress doesn’t have the guts to do the right thing. She pointed out that Bush, then McCain also said they wanted to close Gitmo back in 2008, and received applause from their GOP audiences. Everyone wanted to close Gitmo - then they lost their nerve. Except the President, whose hands are tied. She did a decent job.
Stupes.
That does NOT describe me. But, then again, I’m an extraordinary man.
True.
That’s my son :D
Damn Right: There is an endless supply of pain~ I love this :)
omg.. what a goof: PAINT !
:-) We’ve all been there!
lol, thanks Dudette :)
psa - ff 19.0 is out.
I know very well how we all feel about Tweety, but geeze Louise, I think he was right on here!
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/02/19/chris-matthews-gop-using-cold-war-cia-tactics-to-bring-down-u-s-government/
MSNBC host Chris Matthews tore into the Republican Party on his show Tuesday night, comparing their anti-government attitude to CIA-led coups during the Cold War.
“If they didn’t like a government somewhere — Guatemala, Iran, the Dominican Republic, Chile — they just brought it down,” he said. “Guess what, Republicans are now using the same tactic here at home. If they don’t like who we’ve elected president, they find some way to undermine the government, discredit its leaders, whatever it takes to destroy it.”
“We are using in this country the same old Cold War CIA tactics to destabilize our own country,” Matthews continued. “Look at the impact of the constant threats to shut down the government on public confidence. It’s all in the ratings. It’s making people forever nervous about the basic ability of America to even have a running government. Is that patriotic? I don’t think so.”
Video at the link
Df, I think that ‘unpatriotic’ is the word we should routinely use to describe the Republicans in Congress. They are not anti-big government. They are anti-American. Tar them with the same brush they used on anyone who didn’t agree with them in the Bush years.
Amen sister! And it wouldn’t be a lie. I find them to be VERY unpatriotic.
Watching excellent and disturbing PBS special on guns in America—-2nd part tomorrow night. Just saw the lady author (and gun owner) of a book about gun shows. It’s all a horror show to me, but I learned that political messages are piped into these events—-telling the gun buyers who to vote for in upcoming elections——and fear-mongering—-you and your family will not be safe if you are not armed etc. It’s a real comprehensive look at the gun culture in this country. Eye-opening. Highly recommend.
Mr. Cecil tries to resist national political winds and tailor each campaign to the particular candidates and the states they are running in. Republican campaigns tend to ride national waves, running on broad national issues like the size and scope of government, the level of taxation and the defense of the homeland. Mr. Cecil had different ideas for different Democratic candidates.
For instance, Heidi Heitkamp in North Dakota ran on “North Dakota values,” a languishing farm bill and essential air service to rural America. Sherrod Brown, practically buried under an avalanche of Republican advertising, ran as David against Goliath, even if he was the incumbent in Ohio.
“Each one of our candidates campaigned to their strengths,” said Senator Jon Tester, Democrat of Montana, who won re-election in November in a race many expected him to lose. “I hate to use a basketball analogy, but you don’t put a point guard under the basket and tell him to rebound. Sherrod Brown has a different set of strengths than I do.”
At times last cycle, Mr. Cecil courted controversy. In Wisconsin, he backed the candidacy of Representative Tammy Baldwin, a liberal lesbian from Madison, when many Democrats wanted a more moderate voice from a rural corner of the state. Ms. Baldwin won, beating a four-term governor, Tommy Thompson, the Republicans’ candidate of choice.
In Missouri, Mr. Cecil encouraged Senator Claire McCaskill to pull off one of the most clever feats of the campaign cycle, an advertisement just days before the Republican primary that “blasted” Representative Todd Akin as the most conservative, most vehemently anti-Obama candidate in the Republican field. The effort was seen as a boost for Mr. Akin, the opponent she preferred.
“He understood the complicated needle I had to thread, running a disciplined campaign and seeing if we could end up with a general election candidate we could beat,” Ms. McCaskill said.

One smart dood.
I think that we are in very capable hands:) Anyone in his neck of the woods should send him some thanks….by the way, amk….did you get the wine? What of your business guests?
I am leaving my shop in another one hour to my other home 200 klicks away. On my way, I will pick up the reds (or what passes for it here). The kenyans are arriving tomorrow morning. Will keep you posted about the wine and the appreciation/non-appreciation thereof
They urged me y’day to join them in their 2-day vacay. Drats.
Oh, please do tell us what they thought:) Bet they’ll love everything. Join their 2 day vacay…be that’s JUST what you wanted to do! Have a great time.
I hope you’ll enjoy yourself with a nice California wine.
Enjoy the vacation, the company and the wine!
We need smart people like Guy Cecil running Democratic campaigns if we want to retain Democratic majorities in the Senate and win back the House of Rep.
And so this makes it alright for ‘amateurs’ to have guns??? Are you kidding me??

I love our new “pick-me-up” slogan! :)
I told my husband. It’s taken a while but I finally have a philosophy for life. “There is an endless supply of paint.” It’s perfect.
I’m not the mural type, but I find this mural quite beautiful. Powerful and serene at the same time.
Hi Desert..I wish I was close to Houston…I would have given my time in helping paint any day..anytime:-)
Hello sweet, beautiful kasai:) I know you would have given your time and incredible talents, to help paint that mural! Seems like he has everything under control though….”there is an endless supply of paint”. I like his spirit and his attitude….hope you’re well and all is right in your world. {{{hugs}}}}
Thank you (((Desert)))) All is well..hope you doing fine as well… I love Marcus spirit and we are making it our own “There is an endless supply of paint” love all around (hugs)
Same to you, love:) Yes…all is well :)
FLOTUS will be on the Jimmy Fallon Show Friday night Feb. 22nd. She will be talking about the third anniversary of Let’s Move!!!!!!
OK TOD family, gotta study for exam tommorow. But here is my contribution for when you get sleepy and need a nudge to dose off.
Does anyone know what has happened with Hachiko? Her surgery? Things just pop into my head at the oddest times, and I thought of her. Anyone know how she is??
She posted updates on Twitter. She had the surgery and all was well. She’s on twitter all the time (@marabout40) :)
I am glad to hear she is well.
I don’t Tweet, as you all know:) but glad to hear that she’s doing well. Thanks, hopefruit!
I was glad to see Ed and Rachel didn’t make a big deal out of this Tiger Woods golf, I think they both think the WHPC is acting stupid.
:) Anyone with a brain cell thinks the WHPC is acting stupid!
Sorry df - wasn’t aware that you did not tweet. I’m terrible. LOL!
I will let her know that you are thinking of her. I am sure she will be pleased.

Really?!…I am in Pasadena and we usually get the thunder and hail.
McCain was up against the stupid, fear based ignorance that his party propagated in his town hall today…..this is the ugly shit that goes on here….
During a heated town hall gathering in the Phoenix suburb of Sun Lakes, McCain said the border near Yuma is largely secure, but said smugglers are using the border near Tucson to pump drugs into Phoenix. He said immigration reform should be contingent on better border security that must rely largely on technology able to detect border crossings.
McCain said a tamper-proof Social Security card would help combat identity fraud, and noted any path to citizenship must require immigrants to learn English, cover back taxes and pay fines for breaking immigration laws.
“There are 11 million people living here illegally,” he said. “We are not going to get enough buses to deport them.”
Some audience members shouted out their disapproval.
One man yelled that only guns would discourage illegal immigration. Another man complained that illegal immigrants should never be able to become citizens or vote. A third man said illegal immigrants were illiterate invaders who wanted free government benefits.
