Displaying 61 To 90 Of 651 Comments Thank you, bito!! Am hanging in there. GREAT to see you, too!! » Posted By nicole473 On January 15, 2010 @ 2:26 pm Oh God, thanks for taking the time to set everyone straight, especially that dickhead, Pat, who wouldn’t say anything good about anyone who doesn’t have the same color of skin, and the same religion, unless someone threatened him with a weapon. So thanks, God. We need all the help we can get with the Repub fundies. » Posted By nicole473 On January 15, 2010 @ 12:55 pm Rashomon 5: Eight Views of Tonight’s Headlines Amazing. She is definitely on the “bandwagon” now, however. The fact that she is using such a devastating loss of life to drive her traffic is rather disgusting. Coverage is one thing. Her coverage is another. » Posted By nicole473 On January 15, 2010 @ 9:01 am Sometimes a Cigar is Just a Cigar: Sparkman Committed Suicide So true. Hell, they have lied about many, many things throughout the history of this country, » Posted By nicole473 On January 15, 2010 @ 6:18 pm Utterly logical, Kevin. But sometimes instinct is a better judge than logic. Prior to the election of 2000, I would have snickered at anyone attempting to convince me that a national election could be stolen. Or that SCOTUS would willingly collude to steal it. These days, I am wiser, and far less naive. In my very humble opinion, there are people who will do ANYTHING, commit any atrocity in order to attain what they wish to have, be it power, money, et al. The government can easily cover up whatever it wishes. Bill Sparkman’s death might have been a suicide (and I am leaning towards that belief at this point), but your insistence that the police or the FBI would not have fabricated evidence to cover up the truth is simply disingenuous. Edit: For the record, I lived in the South for 10 years during the 1970’s. The police forces were known to cover up many things, including lynchings. I would not be at all surprised to hear that they still do so. » Posted By nicole473 On January 15, 2010 @ 5:31 pm Welcome to POV, Cher!! It’s great to see you here. 🙂 » Posted By nicole473 On December 4, 2009 @ 12:09 pm Andrew Sullivan Officially Leaving the Right My feelings exactly. And he was not one of those, such as Sullivan, and Buckley Jr., who came out in support of Obama in 2008. » Posted By nicole473 On December 4, 2009 @ 12:21 pm Sadly true. During the 2008 campaigns, Buckley Jr. was asked to resign by the mag his father founded because he came out in support of Obama. Palin was his tipping point also. » Posted By nicole473 On December 4, 2009 @ 12:18 pm “they are just a corporate investment vehicle masquerading as a liberal blog” Nice turn of a phrase, and so disgustingly true. 🙁 » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 6:13 am Thanks, Kesmarn. I will probably be here, although I always have trouble keeping pace with live chat …I will try, though!! » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 10:02 am HA! I haven’t been back since the last time I posted here, although I do confess to missing it. I will say that POV is the place I would far rather be when I am able to post more regularly again! Good for you, javaz! Perhaps I’ll follow in your footsteps at some point! 🙂 » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 10:00 am Hi AlphaBitch! Grrr…..I had long known that he was a class A asshole, but his complete disregard of court orders surprised me. 🙁 » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 9:57 am Thank you, kesmarn. It’s definitely brightened my day to post this morning (well, afternoon here, now)! I’m going to try to be here tomorrow night for the debate (are you still doing the debate?), and the music. Can’t wait! 🙂 » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 9:53 am Hi, Nellie! Thank you! I am chomping at the bit to be able to post more often again……. » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 9:51 am Thank you, AdLib! I can’t even tell you how much I’ve missed this place…….I wonder every day what y’all are talking about! » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 9:49 am Hi Escribacat!!! It’s so good to see you! Thanks for the good thoughts, too. 🙂 » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 9:48 am Thank you, javaz! I’ve missed you guys like crazy! Hell, I even miss Huffpo. 🙁 I am hoping that a few more months will resolve some of the issues keeping me from participating more. » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 6:35 am Thank you, Kalima! I am having some problems as a result of my divorce (July), and I am very, very distracted. » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 6:33 am Good morning, everyone! I’ve been so wrapped up in my personal issues, I’ve hardly paid any attention to what’s going on in the rest of the world. I hope you are all doing well! 🙂 » Posted By nicole473 On December 17, 2009 @ 5:30 am Thanks, Nellie! My Dad has Parkinson’s, and he’s having a hard time with it, but he’s doing a little better for the moment. » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 11:33 am Hi, Monk!! I see that….the more the merrier!! Great to see you too! » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 11:07 am You too, Escriba!! 🙂 » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 10:06 am I am the same with my right wing neighbors, javaz. Fortunately, I have no close family members who are not liberals, so that makes it easier. My ex-MIL, well, that’s a whole other story….. When I lived in DC, we would frequently have dinner with the in-laws on a weekend night. Reagan was in office at the time, and my MIL liked to drink a few, which was fine, except she becomes a different, very unpleasant person when she drinks. That old lady does sound like a complete nutcase….can’t you just ignore her so that she stops contacting you? » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 10:04 am Kalima, have a good night! I hope you will consider posting some pics of your menagerie some time…….would love to see them! » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 9:54 am Thanks, Kesmarn! It’s great to be back. I also have to get off the computer and get back to work……..company tomorrow. » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 9:51 am Hi BDM! I know…..it feels like I’ve been gone for a year instead of a week! » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 9:49 am Hi Kalima! I hope you are doing well! » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 9:48 am Thank you, Javez!! I missed you guys a lot….was eager to log on again! :0 » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 9:47 am Hi Nellie! I had some family issues to deal with so haven’t been online much. » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 9:41 am Good morning, everyone! 🙂 » Posted By nicole473 On November 25, 2009 @ 6:00 amComments Posted By nicole473
The man is a complete fool.
I will be happy when things get back on a more even keel!!
One evening, after she had imbibed a couple of cocktails, we were sitting around on the deck discussing current events. I made a disparaging comment about Reagan, nothing major, but boy, did it set her off.
She attacked me verbally, and would not stop. When I tried to go in to the house, she followed me, and grabbed my arm to force me to pay attention. Ugh. My sweet FIL finally pulled her off me, and that was the very last time I ever engaged in a political discussion with a right winger.
Have a great holiday!!
