Displaying 241 To 270 Of 4,640 Comments Hope There’s No Change – A Bipartisan Chorus Wow, that was enlightening! It will take the people speaking out to make a difference. Those speaking out now are not weirdos, goofs, or left-tea baggers. And, passion has brought about good changes, too. It is so upsetting to me that people are so quick to throw names at people on their own political side that disagree with the President on one issue. (Why weren’t people shouting when President Clinton was making his mistakes? Or did it take 10 years for them to speak out? And, too many went along with President Bush!) He can make mistakes, as everyone has. If people take the time to listen and read additional information, it will be made clear that they are certainly not Tea Baggers. These people have active brains with different opinions. I would think the President would have realized by now that you can’t negotiate with the GOP. It certainly hasn’t worked for him before with them. Don’t slow down, Sherlock!

We will both die in heat! » Posted By SallyT On April 11, 2013 @ 4:30 pm There is not a problem with the “left or progressives” speaking out against the President’s budget. If more had spoken out before President Clinton and President Bush went along with things, well, maybe things would be different. http://www.masslive.com/politics/index.ssf/2013/04/democratic_sen_elizabeth_warre.html http://civic.moveon.org/signon/reichvideo.html » Posted By SallyT On April 11, 2013 @ 4:18 pm Not just the seniors but veterans wives and families and the disabled are going to be effected, too. » Posted By SallyT On April 11, 2013 @ 3:54 pm Only thing I would add to your list, Sue, is suppose an illness happens and the cost of medicine keeps rising. » Posted By SallyT On April 11, 2013 @ 3:51 pm Weekend Music Thread- Springtime and Change of Seasons KT, you have to go back to the Funnies and click that link I put on there.

Better yet I will come up with a thousand pounds of my dogs’ crap and deliver that to the Republican House of Representatives. Won’t take long to get enough either! April Fools! To some of us that is just one day out of the year but too many celebrate it all year round.

You’re the best! » Posted By SallyT On April 2, 2013 @ 4:17 pm Sherlock, I read your very educational article. I knew of these ladies but not all the details. I will not try to add anything in addition to your post except to say, I bet Monsanto was involved somehow. 😉 Dr. Watson is on call. » Posted By SallyT On April 1, 2013 @ 6:55 pm Weekend Music Thread-Truth, Lies and Uncertainty And,with Easter comes the births of spring.

The reason it takes so long is that those against are always going to show up to vote against it. Their views against makes them determined to make sure they are right! But, they aren’t and they are bucking the tide. Evidently, they realize this and they might not agree but they fight it less. They haven’t changed their mind but by not fighting it they might get more to come to their side without those realizing it. Once they can get their people into power, then they can try to change it back. Are people smart enough to realize this, I think so, and I certainly hope so. » Posted By SallyT On March 26, 2013 @ 6:09 pm Weekend Music Thread-A Whole Lot of Love Don’t let it be forgot, that once there was a spot, for one brief shining moment, known as Camelot.

» Posted By SallyT On March 23, 2013 @ 6:58 pm Weekend Music Thread – Something to Talk About Kes, my hubby started watching House of Cards last night and got up to Episode Four and said he was so addicted but he had to get some sleep. He will be back tonight. They get even better, Kes, as it goes on. Head ups, you will find it harder to stop after Episode Five. Kevin Spacey is just great, isn’t he? I love how he turns and talks to us, the viewers, as if we are there and he is telling us secrets. I am glad you are watching and liking it! Keep me informed on what you think as you go along. (There are 13 and I have watched them all once and now again with the hubby. But, it is good enough to watch twice.) I am waiting to hear AdLib’s thoughts. He told me he was going to start watching last night. » Posted By SallyT On March 9, 2013 @ 5:38 pmComments Posted By SallyT
There is no reason why Social Security should be on the table. It is earned benefits and should not be a “bargaining tool” in the budget or blamed for the deficit. Yes, there should be a discussion about Social Security and the concerns that face it in 2037 but it should be separate from this! More jobs and raising the income cap will take it into the next century. Using it now as a carrot by the President to get the Republicans to cooperate is not going to produce anything. They are not going to go along with him unless he gives more. Why even give them an opening into Social Security? The Republicans are hurting themselves by doing nothing that we don’t need to help them by shooting ourselves in the foot!
(This was one of my favorite movies when I was a young girl, Calamity Jane. In an interview I hear Doris Day say it was her favorite movie, too. And, my dad bought me a leather jacket like that with the fringe. Still have it.)
