Jim Lehrer had a discussion with and “perspective from Michael Beschloss, Rev. James Forbes, Jr., and Joseph Bottum.” » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 5:17 pm Stop…it’s like an instant replay and a song you can’t get out of your head. If I’m up all night with nightmares it’s all your fault 🙂 » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 5:12 pm I did the same thing; thought I was the only one. The voice was/is equivalent to finger nails on a blackboard. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 5:09 pm I always said he lied with his eyes and a smirk on his face. Arrogant, dismissive, manipulative…but it was always the eyes. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 5:07 pm LOL 🙂 Actually, it would make no difference what he did, does, or plans to do. The RW would take a totally opposite stand, and I wrote as much “across the street”. All of the negativity has nothing to do with White House policy, but has everything to do with the ethnicity of the family living in the White House. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 12:10 pm Thank you, thank you. Slow day at work, had the time to think it through, AND I printed the How-to-Guide and followed the great directions. Oh, and thanks for moving me from the Speakers’ Corner. I’m deeply flattered. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 11:50 am Talking about Not Talking about Not Talking Night choicelady. Don’t you feel like you’ve died and gone to heaven? I’m out as well — this EST gal can no longer function with 2-3 hours of ZZZZZ. Those days are long gone. See everyone tomorrow 🙂 » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 8:15 pm See, I stopped reading all that garbage because it was a waste of time and more important the more they’re called out, the more attention they receive. It’s how they make the $$$. The idiots who believe their diatribe will believe it until the day they die and trying to change those minds is like trying to “talk to the dining room table” (Barney Frank, Town Hall Somewhere, 2009). Oh and my doc wouldn’t increase my blood pressure meds. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 7:59 pm Sorry, you can’t own it all. I’m crazy2 🙂 » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 7:53 pm twit…haven’t heard that one in awhile lol! » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 7:43 pm Betcha’ you’d find something if…you went to one of the tabloidish places, pretending to be official newsy organizations. Heh, heh. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 7:40 pm Welcome! I’m boomer1949 and a newbie here. Spent a couple of years over there, and I too thought I was losing my mind. HITO invited me and I’m glad. Officially pulled the noose from around my neck a couple of days ago. 🙂 » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 7:34 pm Totally off topic, but check out the Speakers Corner. My greatest accomplishment today and has nothing to do with my day job! 🙂 » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 9:14 am Morning from EST… Damn! Was I talkin’ in my sleep again? Looks like I’ll have to stay up all night just to stay out of trouble. 😉 » Posted By boomer1949 On December 10, 2009 @ 3:18 am Touched by an Angel – A Christmas Story No, not today. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 5:15 pm javaz, we all have complicated families and stories. oh my goodness, i could keep you up all night with my dysfunctional family alone. things happen. people go out of their way to do good things and to treat others the way they would want to be treated. one day you will be in a position to pay it forward. she did right by you, bless her,and when you have the opportunity? you will remember and do the same. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 4:40 pm So what. It’s why we are here. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 4:34 pm Dear javaz, You did no wrong. This is a most difficult time of year for many of us, myself included. When I saw Raphael’s Cherubs it took my breath away. The Cherubs have a very special meaning for me;I love the painting and everything it represents. Whatever the circumstances, you can feel the way you do, just because. None of us here will presume to be in your shoes, nor will we judge your feelings. They are what they are, they are yours, and please, if it makes you feel better, cry. Any one of us is here for you. Believe that from the bottom of our hearts. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 4:32 pm Don’t Let the Perfect Be the Enemy of the OK: Vote Dem! Nah, sometimes I think (God help me) it was all staged. Sorry. I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but having done “spook work” in another life, I wouldn’t be surprised. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:58 pm ECAt, I’m 60 and have been on this planet (literally) for a very long time. I’ve raised 2 kids and have 3 grand kids. I beat myself up for years because I thought I’d failed my girls. Yet, I see character, love of life, ethics, compassion, and the ability to speak up like their loud-mouthed mom that makes me proud. They see unfairness and inequity; they’ve never been “its all about me.” Not saying they were or are perfect, but at least they throw their trash away at Mickey D’s and rehang the clothes they’ve tried on at Macy’s. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:55 pm KS–you’re much better than my pitiful post about Perpetuum Jazzile. On the other hand…take a listen. They are quite extraordinary. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:46 pm When Mom & Dad gave them a car for graduation? » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:44 pm nellie, this is a generation of “instant gratification.” They all want it yesterday, yet they conveniently forget how we got here and conveniently overlook the wrongs that were done. If I had a say, all those guys would be dragged to the public square like Anne Boleyn. Of course Henry was slightly off his rocker, but I’ll take Jonathan Rhys Meyers any day. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:43 pm The negativity makes me want to TU all over the place. Drives me crazy. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:36 pm bito…how are the pups? » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:35 pm PS — I’ve yet to see a POOPER SCOOPER big enough to clean up the mess. To quote our former President… “…it’s his problem now…” What a joke and it only goes to prove he really didn’t know what he was doing…not a clue! That really made my blood pressure go off the charts, yet the doc wouldn’t change my meds. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:33 pm Did you read the story about the former CEO of Blackwater working covertly for the CIA? » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:30 pm One should vote one’s conscience and those that don’t not only betray themselves, but also their country. 99.9% of the reason we are where we are is not because of what President Obama has or has not accomplished in almost one year. The former administration left a pile of CRAP on the front steps of the White House, wiped its cowboy boots ALL over the Constitution, allowed those in the shadows to make decisions, and basically Screwed us, our country, and our reputation. Yet, those who are bound and determined to follow that path are doing it, not because it is the best for everyone in this country, but because of the ethnicity of the family now living in the White House. I’ve been around a very long time and have enough experience and common sense to call it what it is. Bigotry. Period. » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 3:27 pm Historian says Iraq “democracy” doomed to failure And you think smoke, mirrors, deception, and manipulation are positive character traits? » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 7:53 pm Revenge as in GHWB? » Posted By boomer1949 On December 9, 2009 @ 7:51 pmComments Posted By boomer1949
