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.

Good morning!
So what do you think Gingrich is sucking up for? He got passed over the first time around, but clearly he sees an opportunity here to suck up and get a big payback/favor out of the Tweeter in Chief yet. According to that great mind Newt, only Democrat Presidents are able to commit obstruction of justice thus his vote and loudly vocal ramblings about Bill Clinton. Republican Presidents can't commit obstruction of justice because they're the president and can do anything they please is the song he's singing now. Newt should have worked for Nixon. Wait! I just read that Newt's political savvy began with Nixon's 1960 campaign. No wonder he sees it all so clearly.

Who knows why Gingrich is sucking up. His wife got the Vatican Ambassador position, so maybe returning a favor. Rudy Guiliani sure has disappeared into the woodwork, hasn't he?!?!?...Thank goodness!...
Joyce, I finally got around to watching the series, Nashville, now everytime I see your avatar, I think "Rayna James"....LOL

I think Linda hit the nail on the head with the Vatican Ambassadorship

Rayna that's me, Linda! LOL! As the old saying goes you can't throw a rock around here without hitting someone involved in the music industry. I'm just around the corner from Johnny Cash's old home. It burned completely to the ground about 7 years ago, and still the tourists come to see the empty lot.  Lots of country stars throughout this part of middle TN, and then for every star there are all the musicians, song writers, managers, bus drivers, wardrobe and set people, etc. It's a huge industry here. Country music now doesn't sound anything like it did when I was growing up though. I enjoy both, but a good fiddle tune can still set my toe tapping any day of the week.  |

Good point, Linda, about the Vatican ambassadorship for Newt's wife. I had forgotten about that. Maybe this is payback for that. I had even wondered if the thought Sessions might be pushed out and he was hoping for Attorney General. Not sure if he's a lawyer or not though. Does the AG have to be a lawyer? Well, I guess in the world of Trump it wouldn't really matter.

Well, in Tweety's world if you are a wedding planner & get the NYC Housing Authority job, I guess anything is possible when it comes to job appointments! 🙄

It was in my FB feed this morning, Linda, and I thought it was very funny too.

So Cosby is a mistrial. Wonder how the jury broke among guilty and innocent? Wonder if the prosecutor will retry or just let it go as is?

Good morning and hope you are each looking forward to a lovely Father's Day with someone you love. Glad the 7 sailors have been found, but it is heartbreaking that their lives were lost. What a dreadfully sad day for those who loved them. I'll be bringing my mom and dad over for lunch to celebrate. I know I am blessed to still be able to celebrate Father's Day with my father. I have been blessed to have him as a father always. He does and always has loved me completely unconditionally. Even now each day when I go over to visit, when I walk into the room I can literally see his face light up to see me, and I never leave without him first telling me that he loves me. While the odds are not in our favor that we will celebrate this day together next year, who knows what lies ahead? Regardless, I have a lot of happy memories stored away. Step-son #2 and family will be joining us today. They're the ones who live closest to us, and are parents to our youngest grandchild who has just mastered the skill of walking, and decided he actually likes it. He'll be fun to watch for us all. Did any of you catch the Watergate Revisited special on MSNBC last night? It was very good, and very thought provoking. There really are so many similarities to what is going on with the Presidency right now. Check back later . . . |

Wishing you all a relaxing & enjoyable day with Happy Memories of your Dads if they are no longer with you & big hugs for your Dads if you are still fortunate to still have dad in your life. 😊
Quiet day here. I've spent so much time outside lately, I need to pick a corner inside & start cleaning & organizing...That's the plan, but sitting & drinking tea sometimes takes over....😉
