Vox Populi – 11-28-2014

Buuuurp! (‘scuse me!)

pinkpantheroz

A tad too warm here for turkey, but we did have nice salads!

pinkpantheroz

I don’t think so, Tim!

pinkpantheroz

BRB getting some of that! actually a coffee!

pinkpantheroz

Hey Ad, no shopping today. Cleam

sillylittleme

ned up from yesterday

sillylittleme

It’s chilly in LA?

sillylittleme

Totally agree. I usually wait til next weekend when things have calmed down.

sillylittleme

We got a bit of Thanksgiving snow, freezing until Sunday when it goes back into the 50s

sillylittleme

Exactly!!

sillylittleme

So who cooked?

sillylittleme

Sounds nice. Yes, I cooked for myself and my man and also cooked for my landlord and his sons.

sillylittleme

Two kitchens, two meals, slept like a baby last night.

sillylittleme

Without a doubt.

sillylittleme

Of course, money is all they care about. What a sad statement about society…

sillylittleme

State elections here in Victoria today. Liberal (GOP) incumbents will probably get thrown out by Labor ( dems) as a protest at the Federal Bunch of eejits

pinkpantheroz

Evening Glenn, survive Thanksgiving?

sillylittleme

I’m in a safe GOP seat but I’ll still vote Labor.

pinkpantheroz

Evening, Silly, Ad, and PPO. Yes, I did have a nice Thanksgiving. Sounds like yours was nice, also, SLM.

glenn

Ad – seems like we are backwards from the rest of the fully developed democracies…

sillylittleme

Yes, ad, but it is only one state, and the gerrymander is alive and kickiing! But the demographics are starting to change, so….. we live in hope.

pinkpantheroz

PPO–your situation sounds like mine. I’m in a red state, but still vote Dem.

glenn

Glenn – I had a lot of fun cooking!!!

sillylittleme

At least we do get a large voting turnout, due to it being compulsory!

pinkpantheroz

SLM–good on ya for cooking. Luckily, I rely on my son-in-law and daughter to do most of the cooking nowadays. My son-in-law made baked ziti, as well as turkey and all the trimmings. Lots of leftovers!

glenn

PPO – wish that we had compulsory voting…

sillylittleme

fix that, Ad by making it an honorable duty to vote.

pinkpantheroz

Glenn – yum, nothing better than a man who knows his way around the kitchen…

sillylittleme

SLM, yes it’s really no impost, especially when the elections are held on Saturdays and it only takes a minute or two. Plenty of booths, few queues.

pinkpantheroz

Ad – if it were compulsory, then apathy wouldn’t be tolerated,

sillylittleme

All-I am so pissed off with all those lazy ass Dems who didn’t vote, and I really don’t care what their reasons for not voting were. I’m going to sound like a tbagger here and yell, “I want MY country back!” Rude, disrespectful repubs are talking about NOT inviting the President for the State of the Union address. WTH is wrong with these people? They’re sore losers and even sorer winners!

glenn

Glenn – couldn’t agree more, want MY country back to sanity and sensibility

sillylittleme

Ad – of course, because they’d never have another seat in any position

sillylittleme

ad, you’re probably right, but couldn’t the US at least vote on a weekend?

pinkpantheroz

Glenn – who do they think will give the SOTU address?

sillylittleme

SLM, David Letterman’s Top Ten!

pinkpantheroz

BRB

pinkpantheroz

SLM–They want the President to give it in writing; they just don’t want him to be able to speak in Congress.

glenn

PPO – even if it was on a weekend, so many people work weekends it wouldn’t alleviate the problem

sillylittleme

Glenn – so they want people to read it?

sillylittleme

Ad–you haven’t heard that one? Yes, some repubs are saying that they will NOT invite the President to Congress to give the SOTU address. They want him to put it in writing–in other words, they don’t want to show bipartanship! They just want to show their buffoonery.
