A fine and patriotic Happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow FReepers. Here is a bit of holiday humor about one of the Framers and how he wrote a famous essay.

And Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. May you have so many blessings that it takes you all day to count them.

And a happy Thanksgiving to you, my FRiend!

The people are stupid and licentious. The error is in assuming that there is a fiction such as "betters" to turn to. There's only us. The long faces you see on the current Left are from the realization that Mr. 0bama isn't the philosopher-king they painted him to be, and that no one could ever be. The country will survive his pretense and their disappointment. "Do not put your trust in princes, in men who cannot save."

Now off through a snowstorm to a warm hearth and family. They're all liberal fools but I love them anyway. Happy Thanksgiving, all!

Give my regards to “frodolives”. Her foolish liberal twaddle has been missed at FR.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family and friends also. I made a wonderful traditional meal (if I do say so myself) and enjoyed it with two of my sons, one girlfriend who is very sweet and I want her for a daughter-in-law, and my oldest grandson and his dear little wife who is very ill with cancer. I was so happy that she felt up to being with us and I think everyone had a really good time. And I got to share with them some of their American history which always makes me happy. So I feel very thankful this evening for all of my uncountable blessings.

A belated Happy Thanksgiving Day to you as well Publius!

BTW... Is Libertina still amongst us? Since I moved to the Northern Midwest, I haven't been able to keep up with the local board of Puget Sound Freeperdom!

I was snowed in on Thanksgiving, so I whipped up some pasta and beans for a meal.

Fortunately, I'd had my real Thanksgiving the previous Saturday when a circle of friends got together and roasted a goose.

The Saturday meal sounds very nice. Thanksgiving doesn’t have to be on Thursday. :-) Being snowed-in can be nice, too.
