But it would be very frightening to suddenly have that much money, I think.

I, too, would establish a foundation (the Isadore and Maria Foundation) to get 'average' kids educated, or at least trained in a Community College.

Isadore and Maria are the patron saints of farmers and farmwives respectively.

I've given this a lot of thought, and may form a foundation whether I win the Lottery or not.

[gulfcoast6]

Sure wish I could win a bunch so I could give you all my feelings and if I do, I will post it right away...

11. Who won the War of Northern Aggression?

How interesting! I always wanted to establish the Bobby Tomato agricultural scholarships in honor of my dad (who grew tomatoes and a lot of people gave him that as a nickname).

I also want to help kids get started in something they love, whether college, trade school, starting a business, whatever. So many of them seem lost these days, and it seems such a waste that these kids end up working part-time at malls and never really get a chance.

I also would like to get kids really interested in politics...not to run for office but just to understand the significance of what's happening.

And of course I would have a St. Fiacre Gardening Foundation!

1. What is the capital of our nation?

Currency, the dollar, money.

2. What is the capital of our state?

See #1.

3. Who is the Vice President of the United States?

Who cares, he ain't President and no one remembers #2.

4. What political party controls Congress?

There's a party? Where? Who's bringing the beer.

5. Name the two houses of Congress.

The Men's house, the Woman's house.

6. Who are the two senators from our state?

Senator Beavis. Senator Butthead.

7. Who is our Representative in Congress?

Who's this Mr. Gress and why is he trying to con me?

8. Who is the governor of our state?

Govern, or what? Make up your mind.

9. Is tobacco illegal?

Then send him back to his country of origin.

10. Are you able to walk and chew gum at the same time?

That would get in the way of beer drinking.

[JemiansTerror]

I agree with you completely. Its sad to see the Republicans in congress completely fold. They do not realize that every statement that they make emboldens the enemy that threatens my life, and the lives of those with me. They cannot see past the griping of the left wing to see the future of America.

Good night all. I'm going to get some sleep in preparation for tomorrows duties.

[Molly Pitcher]

Oh my! One of the very, very good guys!! Unfortunately, Jemian, voting R is no guarantee these days. Too many Rs are taking the easy route and voting with the House Dems this afternoon.

There's an online effort promoted by Hugh Hewitt and others to recruit candidates who support victory to challenge these weak, faint-hearted Rs in the next primary they face.

Just listened to Duncan Hunter on the House floor, and before that sKerry blathering in the Senate. My husband, home today and listening to the debates, hooted when sKerry referred to himself as "once a troop"!! What???!! The man's truly an idiot.

[The Raven]

What age can Democrats vote?

[Molly Pitcher]

Thanks for your service, and the link, IG. Maybe I missed it, but it seemed like you were planning on retiring fairly soon, but not quite next year? Events overcame some of your thoughts on the matter, and they're certainly not desirable developments there in the General Assembly.

But you have many, many interests and family to keep you going for years yet!

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

What age can Democrats vote?

They're never old enough.

[Molly Pitcher]

Is this a trick question??

lysie, your post above made me LOLOL! Thanks!!!

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

Is this a trick question??

Actually, the answer is "18", but Democrats never grow up, so they never get there.

[Molly Pitcher]

HA! They sure do never grow up, but they also manage to often vote in "extra" numbers...that's what I'm thinking....

[Peach]

Congratulations on your upcoming retirement from the rough and tumble world of politics, Iowa Granny. I admire what you've done for so long and you've been a blessing to all of us as we've read with interest about what the "real" politicians face in their everyday struggles to be heard and represent their constituency.

[Peach]

I'm back from the hair dresser and starting to panic that I haven't gotten much done on my to-do list today for our party tomorrow night.

It is time to force myself to start checking things off that list and get cranking so I'll just wish you a good day and will check in later to see what other trouble the Democrats have gotten into.

[gulfcoast6]

Howdy!

[Molly Pitcher]

I got to see Sam Johnson!! Bless his heroic heart! He let the Defeatists have it, and when he was done, he got a long round of standing applause from one side of the House!

I am soooooo glad I got to see him!!

[Molly Pitcher]

Take a deep breath, Peach. You've done lots, and it'll be worth it. Understand your anxiety completely.
