This photo represents me as well; books were always in the house and one of my earliest memories is of my mom sharing a love of books and reading with me. I was able to pay it forward during the 30 years that I was a teacher (just yesterday a 30 year-old former student stopped me when I was out shopping and told me that she still remembers studying a Langston Hughes poem and learning about elections in my class). I now sit in my cottage home that has bookshelves filled with a wide variety of hardcover and paperback books and Kindles loaded with e-books and time to enjoy it all; bliss.
Mr. Kristol, you have absolutely not self awareness. If you did you would understand that all you do in your life is supercilious and snide sniping. I do not admire you for it either.
This is so wonderful. Michelle Obama is beyond wonderful beyond beautiful beyond comprehension GOODNESS Out and About in this World. Chipsticks you are wonderful. TOD is wonderful. I must resist the urge to watch this on repeat all afternoon long. The kids, the surprises, the teachers, the worms, the tortillas, the great goodness that is the FLOTUS. The only true now and forever FLOTUS. Thankyou thank you thank you.
Hello TODable TODbots ;)
27F if at all. Cloudy & nothing pleasant
Congrats to all the Au :star: winners, starting with this post and many posts back.
TOD, Rocks!
It was a brisk 30 degrees, but POTUS stopped to chat with each of his greeters. He first talked with Shawn J. Gaffney, Colonel, Mission Support Group Commander.
Next he shook hands and spoke with Republican Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and Milwaukee Co. Executive Chris Abele.
There was close to 70 people at the action today in front on Toomey’s office in Philadephia…it was sponsored by OFA along with partners…included PP , and United ACTION…it was cold but folks were Fired UP!…it was a good mix…looked like the Obama Coalition….:D
FBI agents arrested Jerry DeLemus, co-chair of Veterans for Trump in New Hampshire, on Thursday following his indictment in connection with the 2014 Bundy Ranch standoff in Nevada, the New Hampshire Union Leader reported.
Federal charges against DeLemus included “conspiracy to commit an offense against the United States, threatening a federal law enforcement officer, attempting to impede or injure a federal law enforcement officer and several firearms charges,” the newspaper reported.
Susan DeLemus, a state representative and fellow supporter of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, confirmed her husband’s arrest to the newspaper. Trump announced that he was forming Veterans for Trump in July and named DeLemus among the co-chairs.
I have not yet mastered how to embed a Vid to my tweets.
Can someone please Create a Tweet with this? I would like to tweet it out with #KingOfBirtherism
1. I find it really gross when Sanders won’t even say Hillary Clinton’s name, but instead refers to her, for the first time in the interview, as “the woman that has been in three presidential campaigns—two of her husband’s and her own already.” What the fuck.
2. Black voters just haven’t heard of Bernie Sanders. That old canard. This line of bullshit is problematic for a whole lot of reasons, not least of which is the implicit circular racist shitshow that is: Black voters aren’t informed and, if they were, they would definitely vote for Bernie
Sanders, so the fact that they aren’t voting for Bernie Sanders proves they’re uninformed. For fuck’s sake.
3. “The age of the Obama coalition was 2008.” Uh, nope. That was the beginning of the age of the Obama coalition. And that coalition is the future of not only the Democratic Party, but of the country. The fact that the Sanders campaign has failed to realize or accept this fact is exactly why they’re losing.
LH, both Sanders and his wife are out of touch with the world as it is. They are living in a fantasy universe in which people have only to hear them and they will fall at their feet. They believe that the millions of us who support President Obama will look at this 74 year old Socialist with outmoded ideas and think he is the better choice for our future.
my god. had car radio on and now seeing all over online mitt rmoney. who gives a flying flip what that loser has to say about anything?!? i’m still amazed at the lengths “the news” will go to promote a republican. he said all kinds of crazy things during the last campaign, never released his COMPLETE taxes (keep huge chunks secret…the important parts), and was a embarrassment within in hours on the world stage at the london olympics and in isreal. just another trust fund fraud. i hope trump kicks his smarmy butt back to la jolla.
If he (Trump) doesn’t - it won’t be through lack of trying.
This just highlights that the GOP has no-one with the ability to take down Trump. A party of the past in every possible way.
In a way, I blame my friend Greg Sargent. In the first week in January, he noted, almost in passing, that Mitt Romney seemed to be making a lot of false claims, and someone “really should document them all.” That struck me as a good idea, so I decided to tackle this on my own.
After all, I thought at the time, how hard could this be? Once a week, I’d let readers know about Romney’s whoppers, which I assumed would total about a half-dozen a week, and maybe after the election, I’d do a top 20 list of my favorites. The project would be a nice little Friday-afternoon feature.
Little did I know at the time that Romney would become an ambitious prevaricator, whose rhetoric would come to define post-truth politics. Nearly 11 months after Greg Sargent’s harmless suggestion, I’ve published 40 installments in this series, which, before today, featured 884 falsehoods. (If you include today’s edition, the new total is 917 falsehoods for the year.)
According to the pool report: Obama told his lunch companions that the family doesn’t want Sasha to have to transfer during high school, so they plan to stay in DC for a while longer. “Transferring someone in the middle of high school – tough.”
As they continued talking he looked up at the pool reporters, smiled and waved us off, saying, “Thanks guys! Get out of here!”

It’s been great to answer your questions. We are learning more every day about Zika, so stay up to...
Thanks for all the questions!
I'm traveling to Belize and according to the CDC it is a zika free zone, however, all the surrounding countries are effected. Is this because of poor reporting? Should I be concerned?
If we are trying to have a baby now should we be tested first .. This scares me !
Surprise!
Jacqueliiiiiiiiiiiiine!!!
Chipsy!!! Hey, y’all, love those tweets on Trumpette you sent out today! You go, girl!

Thank you a million gazillion times for everything you do on the ground, Judith! You Ba-rack!

This President could wipe the floor with Trump. If he could run for a third term.
any democrat would wipe the floor with Trump.
I ❤️ My FLOTUS!

And the hits just keep on coming. !
I was wondering about this guy
Apart from the fact that Romney is a sad case, I agree with every word of this:
Her hat says “Obama” in glitter.
How sweet!

Whoa: Jane Sanders’ Interview with Chris Hayes
http://www.shakesville.com/2016/03/whoa-jane-sanders-interview-with-chris.html
So, a couple of quick thoughts here:
1. I find it really gross when Sanders won’t even say Hillary Clinton’s name, but instead refers to her, for the first time in the interview, as “the woman that has been in three presidential campaigns—two of her husband’s and her own already.” What the fuck.
2. Black voters just haven’t heard of Bernie Sanders. That old canard. This line of bullshit is problematic for a whole lot of reasons, not least of which is the implicit circular racist shitshow that is: Black voters aren’t informed and, if they were, they would definitely vote for Bernie

3. “The age of the Obama coalition was 2008.” Uh, nope. That was the beginning of the age of the Obama coalition. And that coalition is the future of not only the Democratic Party, but of the country. The fact that the Sanders campaign has failed to realize or accept this fact is exactly why they’re losing.

Thanks, Bill.
I just retweeted it.
I guess it TAKES ONE to KNOW ONE, ah Mittiens?
Now I’m hungry!!!!!!
HHahahaaa! Love POTUS’ style!
Don’t laugh but what is Patacon con Huevos?
I’m not sure. I know huevos is eggs but I had to google patacon - some kind of plantain thingy.
Chipsticks, That sound like it comes from one of those dam stupid uneducated bigots. Trump is going to build a wall and make Mexico pay for it
But don’t tell us how he will make Mexico pay for it, someone might steal his plan.
my god. had car radio on and now seeing all over online mitt rmoney. who gives a flying flip what that loser has to say about anything?!? i’m still amazed at the lengths “the news” will go to promote a republican. he said all kinds of crazy things during the last campaign, never released his COMPLETE taxes (keep huge chunks secret…the important parts), and was a embarrassment within in hours on the world stage at the london olympics and in isreal. just another trust fund fraud. i hope trump kicks his smarmy butt back to la jolla.

POTUS will be speaking at 2:50pm. I have watch FLOTUS seven times, :) :)
MITT ROMNEY - AN AMBITIOUS PREVARICATOR
