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've hatched! www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow/watch/new-commerce-secretary-at-nexus-of-lucrative-trump-russian-deal-886220355575?cid=sm_fb_maddow I'm re-posting this link from yesterday because it is stunning. If you haven't already seen this, its really worth the time.

The speech from The Fake President before Congress = A Wolf dressed in sheep's clothing IMHO..Never forget that Bannon & Miller lurking in the background controlling this Faker. www.factcheck.org/2017/03/trumps-address-to-congress/DOW hits 21,000... Tweetie's Wall Street friends love him because they are getting richer by the day. How long will it take before we are back to same situation when President Obama had to clean up the Bush era mess? ?

Good morning my friends,
And why is the mkt going up? You have to ask who's buying?
As for last nights speech, Dummfy looked like he has slimmed down a bit.....nice suit, well tailored..either good makeup or he had a facial OR both. (see, I can say something nice)
As for the speech......the phrase "Bread and Circuses" kept coming to mind.
"A phrase used by a Roman writer to deplore the declining heroism of Romans after the Roman Republic ceased to exist and the Roman Empire began: “Two things only the people anxiously desire — bread and circuses.” The government kept the Roman populace happy by distributing free food and staging huge spectacles."

Joyce, you mentioned the other day, you were concerned about your dad. Those kinds of instincts are usually ingrained in good caregivers. Sorry to hear you were right tho...I'm sure this stresses your Mom out as well. Thinking of you. Just happy you have some relief with Assisted Living ..

DH summarized last nights speech:
"Trump wants to make friends with the people he shat on for the last two years, and the rest of you do as you are told."

I am quite worried about this - debating when to move my 401k into all conservative funds. Did anyone notice the TELEPROMPTERS ?

Too tired to post much, but wanted to say thank you for your concern and kind words. My dad is better tonight. I think we are going to dodge the bullet one more time.

Oh Joyce, that is good news. You must be exhausted. I hope you can get some R&R tonight. Take care of You!
Pam, that link is stunning! However, not much of a surprise. I wonder what the "R's" think about all this. Probably not too much. Except it's all Obama's fault. Obnoxious two faced twits.
Anne, I love the "bread and circuses" thing! It perfectly describes how other nations as well as thoughtful American citizens see the USA. Such a shame.
Nature Lover, there were teleprompters? lol. Oh, they must have been left over from President Obama. Surely, someone as intelligent and prepared as the oaf has all that info at his fingertips. Or, on palm of his hands.
Linda, I'm constantly ranting about how Democrats are always left with an overwhelming mess to cleanup after a Republican leaves the WH. The Dems come in, clean it up, and how do the voters thank them? By putting a Republican back in there. The Rep messes it all up again and the voters replace him with a Dem and the beat goes on.
