calimary's JournalPerhaps it could be something they ate?
This whole campaign has had me thinking back to the "Blues Brothers," MM. (Hey, I'm OLD.) But I keep bumping up against a reference they made - to a "wish sandwich." Which is - "you have two pieces of bread, and you WISH you had some meat."
Frankly, it's something we've all tasted at one time or other.
They've been referring to President Obama, then VP Biden, AND Senator Warren
as "Murderers' Row."
LUUUUUUUUVVVVV it!!!!!
The CONS may not have been kind to him, but history certainly will be.
HIS is the name that will be remembered. Their names will all be forgotten. Or lost. Or both.
What you said, okieinpain!
What you said! What a happy day! He always seems to find the right note. Love you, Mr. President!
Well, somebody had to follow James Brown, too...
Worst headliner spot EVER:
The Rolling Stones, big closing act of the TAMI show in 1964. But they had the misfortune of following James Brown. Who proceeded to chew all the scenery, dismantle the stage, and walk off with the entire Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in his back pocket before they could even reach the parking lot.
As long as you're asking, Orrex...
I'd like very respectfully to offer this perspective. As a longtime Californian, it kinda stunned me to hear Bernie dismiss Jerry Brown as "establishment." That was insulting, and it seemed as though it was MEANT to be an insult, or a put-down, or some such.
I've been around long enough to have happily voted for Jerry Brown the FIRST two times he won the governorship here. It is, well, shall we say - bewildering - to imagine that ANYBODY would describe Jerry Brown as "establishment." As a Hillary supporter, I'm not okay with ME being dismissed as "establishment" either - because I was/am supporting her, which that remark also clearly implied. Our daughter just got married and during the celebrations we were the ones affectionately regarded as the "old hippies."
Just a REALLY teeny nitpick, I know, and please forgive me if it seems as though I'm overreacting. But when I think back over all those years of my own activism (since I was 17, starting with the Student Coalition for Humphrey/Muskie before I was even old enough to vote), gotta say that really stung.
There were many other things about Bernie that I found very difficult to get behind, as well, but I'll just stop it there, with this.
I appreciate your caring enough to ask, though.
As we'd say around our house...
"Smile, paulie! YOU crawled into bed with him. Now he gets to fuck you!"
But remember - when she's that close,
it's so much easier to pick their pockets! Figuratively AND maybe sometimes literally...
