We are a group of like-minded people that gather to discuss a host of topics from weight loss, to current events. Our thread celebrates liberal diversity, welcomes new friends, and respects all opinions. We count everything from calories to points but, we never count our chickens before they are hatched.

Oh my gosh the summer is flying by at warp speed! How did it get to be August already?
Slowly but surely, trickle by trickle the Rs are showing cracks in their bond with the JA. Some of them bigger cracks than others. I hope Congress is serious on both sides of the aisle and will work together to fix Obamacare. I don't really trust Alexander. He actually was a pretty good governor years ago here in TN, but something happened to him when he got to Washington, and he forgot about the people he's supposed to represent. He is up for reelection in 2018 here, and normally just gets voted back in automatically by my very red state. However, if he doesn't do something and allows many, many Tennesseans to end up without healthcare or higher premiums he may find it's not such an easy campaign this time around. Either way I would like to see him have a viable challenger. When you contact his office about anything, he never responds even by sending back a canned email or letter. He just totally ignores you. Senator Corker at least does send back a canned response, although he's also looking out for himself rather than for Tennessee. He has a lot of political ambition.

HI...I know, where did summer go?... It was in the low 50's this morning when I woke up. Felt good after the high temps we have been having, but also, a reminder of what's around the corner. We have had snow in September before.
The voices in JA head seem to be getting louder & louder.....what's with these phone calls he claims happened & really never did!?!?!.... I 'm so glad those people he says called are now speaking up & saying, "never happened".
Do you feel that Sarah Huckabee Sander's treats the reporters like a room full of unruly children who she feels have to be reminded to behave. She irks the bejesus out of me!!!!!... I read KAC may be the the new Communications Director...god help us!...
All things JA & his family...just ICK, UGH, GAG!

#1 grandson is in the air and heading home to pack for University, promised to be back for the winter holidays......sweet! He got his roommate assignment, a foreign student from China. This my friends should be an interesting education for the both of them. Hucklebaby is something else.......does a professional adult woman of her size really dress with ruffles? She looks like a "Dimetrodon". Save it for home or Church or the boudoir. interesting, takes all kinds: www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/burqa-women-bus-seats_us_59819907e4b02b36343ef111?3rp&ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009 |

Maybe JA is mistaking robo calls as "You're doing a wonderful job! We think your speech to the Boy Scouts was the best ever!" LOL!!! How on earth does he think it possibly benefits him to lie about things so easily verified? Glad the Boy Scouts spoke out, and hope that more and more people will start doing so. He thinks he can just ad lib the script of life as he goes along.
Anne had to laugh about your comment concerning Sarah's dress. She never dresses very professionally I don't think, but yesterday's ruffles were something else entirely. Maybe Melania or Ivanka need to pull her aside and give her some fashion tips. Certainly she doesn't want to take any fashion advice from KAC otherwise known as Paddington Bear's double.
KAC as possible WH communications director?! She'll probably get the job. JA seems to have a real knack for putting the worst possible person in that position. Still he wants loyalty to himself, and KAC will give him that all the way. She'd lie to the Pope and then ask him to give her communion.

Oh my gosh for the Huffington Post article, Anne! Racism and Islamophobia are running rampant thanks primarily to the JA.
Saw a line moving across the screen on either CNN or MSNBC (don't remember which) saying that some Democrats are urging Deval Patrick to run for President in 2020. I don't know all that much about him, and he might be great. I'm afraid, however, it will be a very long time before this country will ever elect another black President. I hope I am wrong about that. All I know is that we desperately need to put someone up in 2020 who stands a strong chance of winning because we've got to get the country away from this JA, although there are a lot of people out there saying JA will no longer be in office by then. Still, however, we'll have Pence to deal with and he's not much better.

Really, don't those reporters know WHO she is? They should be so impressed and respectful to her!

As for summer being over, it's flying by fast but still hot as blazes here. Normally it's October before we really start cooling off.

Off Topic... Happy Happy Happy...just saw a Morning Dove building a nest in the one tree I have left in back yard...yeah! ...birds been scarce since the other trees got cut down this Spring...
Rick Perry being considered for Homeland Security?!?!...
Anybody think Sessions will be fired? I keep thinking all this cabinet shuffling is leading up to something. But what?

Oh please no! Rick Perry is a bad choice for anything, much less for Homeland Security! He is a total doofus! That video of him standing behind JA and bobbing his head during the Boy Scout speech looks like Howdy Doody on steroids or something.
JA is going to try to force Sessions out, but if Sessions stands his ground JA will most likely fire him. Then again, sometimes when you stand up to a bully he'll back off.
Yay Linda! A Morning Dove nesting in your tree. Lovely!
