That's the threat that Murtha, now Chairman of the Defense Subcommittee of the House Appropriations Committee, says the House must use if the President doesn't accept their will for surrender in Iraq.
There's only one little, teensy weensy problem with the moron doing this; it's the Constitution, which provides for impeachment for ONLY the following: treason, bribery, other high crimes and misdemeanors. No mention anywhere about a president refusing to accept Congress' threats or their will to surrender to an enemy.
Good morning, Chair.
Wow! I’ve not had a sugar rush experience like that. Scary, imho. I have just stumbled on to another migraine med. This one really works on the headaches: Maxalt. It works better for me than imitrex.
Jemian, yes, you can eat them.
P.S. Please, remember just an Intern...still learning!
I must learn how to post photos. You are so good at posting pictures and links.
That isn’t what I saw. It was taller shrub with very dark purple leaves that were frilly.
23,000 families are still living in FEMA trailers down here because of the lack of housing another reason it is free housing for many, many. Tell on one thing, we went with three families in our back yard in those ‘things’ and it nearly caused a war between families, and us. No more for us with this type of situation and I know, we will do it all over if we need too.
THE UNITED STATED HOUSE OF INVISTIGATONS, nothing by investigations on every department head in President W’s administration. It is sickening, hatred can be so very vicious can’t it. The battle cry of the dimwits? GET BUSH!!!!
If HILLARY COMES IN MY ‘SHACK IN THE BACK’ ONE MORE TIME, WE ARE TO HAVE CHICKEN FOR SUPPER. got my front door open enjoying the perfect morning and that will soon change, in the high 80’s today, and I got lots of yard and garden work to do, go to the tractor store, get some more chick feed (rascals gulping it down’ and maybe pick up a couple more turkeys. Got to first put a top on my chick coop as the little ones are starting to fly out of it.
We are seeing more and more black and brown widow spiders about the house and yard, been stomping the heck out of them, big ones too. Will see what to spray and try to clean them out.
Friends, it is a MUST we start praying for this country, the Dimwits have no idea the the enemy wants to kill every one of us, or they do and don’t care, politics over survival. This is no time to flop the coin and count on it for our future. I personally do no plan to wear a robe adn one of those thingamagiges on my head, dead sure I wont bot you allah five times a day and WILL NOT denouce Jesus, dead or not. We are in serious trouble and our entire future depends on this fight, it is do or die, no time to take the chance it won’t happen cause it is on the way.
Lastly, I am 71 years old, death does not bother me (like it would do me any good anyhow) but we all have so many plans for our children, grand children and they mean the entire world to us. We must find a way to stop this madness the dims are so involved in, lets pray as this is only cure for our situation.
There I go, ranting and raving on this important subject. We should NEVER forget to pray for OUR President W, a man standing alone for the population of this nation.
May each of you have a good day, a safe one, a happy one and a good day to say ‘good morning’ to the first five people you see today, make them happy, make yourself happy.
Toby
Good Morning Everyone.
Gee stopem, I just thought those were long legged kale. They are pretty. I saw those in Lowes.
Really? I will be at Lowes today, Thanks!
I tried to post a photo once, got a call from Putin’s office in Moscow asking me not to do that again.
Good morning everybody. Toby, we are in your home state, along I-55. Had a long drive yesterday...
I will say that I like MS so far. The roads are MUCH MUCH better than LA. There were looong sections in LA that were teeth-rattling bang-bang-bang-bang...for miles and miles. Then, we’d see a sign that said we were crossing into a new parish and the road would improve. Then get bad again....sheesh.
In MS, there may be the occasional short section of road that is rough, but the vast majority is very good road, and with little construction going on.
I think it must have something to do with your governor....:^)
LOL....I'll be sending you your irises today...Priority Mail. There will be two varieties...Yellow Flag Iris and Bearded Iris (various colors)..I think.
The other day, you mentioned Sandra Dee. I just have to share with you a poem I got in my email awhile ago about her. Sorry about the funky formatting, and sorry that I don’t know who wrote it. It’s long, but oh, so good!
The Land of Sandra Dee
Long ago and far away,
In a land that time forgot,
Before the days of Dylan
Or the dawn of Camelot.
There lived a race of innocents,
And they were you and me,
Long ago and far away
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
Oh, there was truth and goodness
In that land where we were born,
Where navels were for oranges,
And Peyton Place was porn.
For Ike was in the White House,
And Hoss was on TV,
And God was in his heaven
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
We learned to gut a muffler,
We washed our hair at dawn,
We spread our crinolines to dry
In circles on the lawn.
And they could hear us coming
All the way to Tennessee,
All starched and sprayed and rumbling
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
We longed for love and romance,
And waited for our prince,
And Eddie Fisher married Liz,
And no one’s seen him since.
We danced to “Little Darlin,”
And Sang to “Stagger Lee”
We cried for Buddy Holly
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
Only girls wore earrings then,
And three was one too many,
And only boys wore flat-top cuts,
Except for Jean McKinney.
And only in our wildest dreams
Did we expect to see
A boy named George with Lipstick
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
We fell for Frankie Avalon,
Annette was oh, so nice,
And when they made a movie,
They never made it twice.
We didn’t have a Star Trek Five,
Or Psycho Two and Three,
Or Rocky-Rambo Twenty
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
Miss Kitty had a heart of gold,
And Chester had a limp,
And Reagan was a Democrat
Whose co-star was a chimp.
We had a Mr. Wizard,
But not a Mr. T,
And Oprah wasn’t talkin’ yet
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
We had our share of heroes,
We never thought they’d go,
At least not Bobby Darin,
Or Marilyn Monroe.
For youth was still eternal,
And life was yet to be,
And Elvis was forever,
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
We’d never seen the rock band
That was Grateful to be Dead,
And Airplanes weren’t named Jefferson,
And Zeppelins weren’t Led.
And Beatles lived in gardens then,
And Monkees in a tree,
Madonna was a virgin
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
We’d never heard of microwaves,
Or telephones in cars,
And babies might be bottle-fed,
But they weren’t grown in jars.
And pumping iron got wrinkles out,
And “gay” meant fancy-free,
And dorms were never co-ed
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
We hadn’t seen enough of jets
To talk about the lag,
And microchips were what was left in
The bottom of the bag.
And Hardware was a box of nails,
And bytes came from a flea,
And rocket ships were fiction
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
Buicks came with portholes,
And side show came with freaks,
And bathing suits came big enough
To cover both your cheeks.
And Coke came just in bottles,
And skirts came to the knee,
And Castro came to power
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
We had no Crest with Fluoride,
We had no Hill Street Blues,
We all wore superstructure bras
Designed by Howard Hughes.
We had no patterned pantyhose
Or Lipton herbal tea
Or prime-time ads for condoms
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
There were no golden arches,
No Perriers to chill,
And fish were not called Wanda,
And cats were not called Bill.
And middle-aged was thirty-five
And old was forty-three,
And ancient were our parents
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
But all things have a season,
Or so we’ve heard them say,
And now instead of Maybelline
We swear by Retin-A.
And they send us invitations
To join AARP,
We’ve come a long way, baby,
From the Land of Sandra Dee.
So now we face a brave new world
In slightly larger jeans,
And wonder why they’re using
Smaller print in magazines.
And we tell our children’s children
of the way it used to be,
Long ago and far away
In the Land of Sandra Dee.
Talk about serendipity. When we are traveling between major destinations we almost always use a campground guide to look up campgrounds along the route and read descriptions to make a selection.
Yesterday we did just that and found a place that met our somewhat special requirements (no trees that are too close to obstruct the satellite internet dish for instance) and stopped in.
While registering we noticed that the campground owners hold bluegrass music festival every year and we mentioned that we play. Then we noticed a flyer on the office wall for a show not far from here that is featuring some WONDERFUL musicians that we met this spring down by where we live. We thought that was remarkable to happen upon a flyer that had folks we knew from our new neighborhood featured on it. But the surprises weren’t over....
Last night the campground owners came over and asked us to play a few tunes so although tired, we obliged.
Parked behind us was another RV with a gentleman and his wife who were listening. Come to find out, they have spent years wintering in the Valley and he is a fiddle player and is friends with and played with many folks we know from there. He pulled out his fiddle and we had a great time playing for a couple of hours. He’s a very good fiddler.
So, I guess it was meant we stay here.
Ha! Love it. Thanks.
Very funny!!
Time for exercise class..and then more work to do in the flower beds. TTYL.........
empty your email box!!!
something bounced back
:-)
Can you describe the blossom, stopem?
Newsbee, I wonder if it was Cimicifuga-Brunette?
I have the Cimicifuga-Racemosa, the foliage is lacy, but otherwise resembles Peony in growth habit and stature.
Depending just how Deep in the Heart of Texas stopem is, it might be unfurling it's bloom.
I’m so sorry; I’ve been emptying and emptying and emptying SO much stuff to avoid this problem. I don’t know what else I can do! I cleaned out over 25 megabytes just this morning, in addition to hundreds of emails (perhaps thousands)over the last few days.
(Weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth.)
I will see if I can find a graphic of the one you mentioned IowaGranny, I am in North Texas near Dallas, BigD.
