heatwater.you’ll do great Amk! :D
Interesting that today’s & Monday’s press briefing have been posted to the White House video file but not yesterday’s major league take down of trump and any elected (or candidate) Republican who support him. So, I decided to ask …
bbl …
I love Miss Piggy. She found a present under the WH Christmas tree for Kermit, and not her. :)
hysterical
:)
very funny
yes, I like it a lot!
Miss Piggy is a riot - thank heavens for the USSS
Today, No Child Left Behind was destroyed in Congress… and I was left behind.
The irony; it burns.
sorry about that;
just out of curiosity, what was your opinion on the NCLB education policy; did you name your self after this policy?
I suspect you support the work of the admirable Dr. Marian Wright Edelman of Children’s Defense Fund
LOL! :-D
Any question about Donald Trump supporters? If so let me tell you who they are, racists tea party right wing bigots. And Frank Luntz isn’t to much better.
Why is Frank still asking those questions. Don’t bother answering; I know why.
Dudette, three others Larry, Moe, and Curry.
I am in total agreement.
This is sensational news. I wonder how many jobs a 1 billion dollar plant brings to Nevada?
Huh that is really something and you know what else? Didn’t hear a peep about it on the news! Why am I not surprised! :eyeroll:
Pennsylvania and Pennsylvanians will not tolerate hate. We will not tolerate injustice. We will not tolerate unfairness. All of us should be outraged by what happened outside the Al Aqsa Islamic Society mosque in Philadelphia this Sunday night.” - Governor Tom Wolf, speaking about the incident at the Al Aqsa Islamic Society mosque in Philadelphia.
Pf, Thank you. I’m so glad we elected this man. I shudder to think how idiot Corbett would have handled this.
Evening TOD. Totally agree. We did the right thing. Let’s hope he is successful in reeling in the idiocy that is the rethug house and senate.
yesssssss
All righty roo - anyone here want to help the awol/oot&aboot/lurkerwhenpossible MP celebrate her birthday TOMORROW??? I am about to pour a tiny glass of red wine to start the party, way too far behind to tell it all, but never mind all that ~ one day, I promise. I promise. <3 <3 <3 :bear: <3

Jump starting are you? Well, I’ll just eat the cake all by myself now that you’ve taken away the surprise element. Have a wonderful day, starting with your glass of wine!!!!
