Good morning, lysie!
That is one sweet breakfast—thanks!
Still too hot and humid here for open windows—just over 100 degrees here yesterday.
Expecting big rains this afternoon and evening.
Should cool things off a bit.
Prayer for the Morning
For the bird who sings outside my window,
For the tree that stands outside my door,
For the neighbor who waves and says good morning,
I give you thanks dear God, for these and more,
Your blessings every morning know no limit,
Yet I often rush by not seeing them, I fear;
Let me take a moment this and every morning, God, I pray,
To remember all of them, and know that you are here.
Amen.
Good morning!
Gee, I can’t decide which one, yum.
Would someone like to split both kinds with me?
Thanks, lady for the sweet rolls.
Nice that it has cooled off a bit.
Let’s see, this is Mopping Monday, then I truly hope you have a non-busy rest of the week.
Amen
Camp was nice yesterday , but far too windy for hubby to go fishing....3 foot waves is not good for fishing. Still, it was nice. The residents at the vacation park put on a chicken BBQ and hubby DID NOT have to BBQ it. LOL
Good morning. I read about your doctor/lab situation. My prayers are with you.
Good morning, exit.
Won’t the humidity from the rain make things worse?
But glad rain will bring temp down.
Praying for all of you that are being affected by this heat wave, hope no one else dies.
Very sweet prayer.
Thank you and Amen.
Sorry no fishy!! But eating BBQ someone else cooked, wonderful!
Good morning, HM.
Let’s hope and pray you will get some results from your tests and can get on the way to a cure, Lyme disease is very dangerous as it is often misdiagnosed, as an armchair doctor (talking about myself, not you lol) I think you got the right diagnosis, you know your body, you keep on them.
My grand-daughter, the nurse, came down with a staph infection which she is being treated for, the whole time we were in valley staying with them she was sick with a fever, sore throat and upset stomach, finally went to urgent care yesterday. Said not related to infection but she has picked up a virus and her antibiotic is causing throat and stomach problems.
I am a worry-wort grandma and after all the horror stories you hear about young people dying from minor illnesses, I’M WORRIED!!!
One of the most prominently held urban legends of our time is that Senator Barry Goldwater, the GOP candidate for president in 1964, was against civil rights because he voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. This vote of Goldwater marked the start of when the GOP began to go against civil rights according to CNNs Roland Martins version of the legend.
The truth is, the GOP has always been in favor of civil rights. From the creation of the party, which opposed slavery; to this present day, you cannot find a single plank on the GOP platform that indicates anything otherwise. In fact, it was Republican President Eisenhower who proffered the first civil rights act of 1957, which was watered down by White Southern Democrats [
In the 1964 civil rights act, Republicans in the house voted 138 for and 34 against; Democrats voted 152 for and 96 against. In the Senate, the Republicans voted 27 for and 6 against; the Democrats voted 46 for and 21 against. Clearly, from these numbers, there was no apparent anti-Civil Rights movement in the GOP as Roland Martin, and others, suggest

URBAN LEGEND: GOLDWATER AGAINST CIVIL RIGHTS
Urban Legends article-Goldwater
One of the most prominently held urban legends of our time is that Senator Barry Goldwater, the GOP candidate for president in 1964, was against civil rights because he voted against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. This vote of Goldwater marked the start of when the GOP began to go against civil rights according to CNNs Roland Martins version of the legend.
The truth is, the GOP has always been in favor of civil rights. From the creation of the party, which opposed slavery; to this present day, you cannot find a single plank on the GOP platform that indicates anything otherwise. In fact, it was Republican President Eisenhower who proffered the first civil rights act of 1957, which was watered down by White Southern Democrats [see Eisenhower on Civil rights].
This bill, however, was responsible for jump-starting the process of civil rights legislation with protection for voting rights; establishing the Civil Rights Division in the Justice Department; and among other things, establishing a six-member Civil Rights Commission.[1] In addition, a second Civil Rights bill was passed in 1960. Senator Goldwater supported both bills.
The problem arises in 1964. The new Civil Rights bill championed by President Johnson, who has now ironically had an epiphany about Civil Rights, comes to the Senate. The Southern Democrats oppose the bill as they had opposed similar legislation along with Senator Johnson. Now as president, Johnson realizes the bill will not pass the Senate without Republican help so he approaches Everett Dirksen. Dirksen garners Republican support, and the bill passes.
Of note, The Republican Party was not so badly split as the Democrats by the civil rights issue. Only one Republican senator participated in the filibuster against the bill. In fact, since 1933, Republicans had a more positive record on civil rights than the Democrats. In the twenty-six major civil rights votes since 1933, a majority of Democrats opposed civil rights legislation in over 80 % of the votes. By contrast, the Republican majority favored civil rights in over 96 % of the votes.[2]
In the 1964 civil rights act, Republicans in the house voted 138 for and 34 against; Democrats voted 152 for and 96 against. In the Senate, the Republicans voted 27 for and 6 against; the Democrats voted 46 for and 21 against. Clearly, from these numbers, there was no apparent anti-Civil Rights movement in the GOP as Roland Martin, and others, suggest.
As a matter of fact, as one of the six voting against the 1964 Civil rights act, Senator Goldwater, on principle, disagreed with the idea of Federal government intervention regarding this matter. His stance was based on his view that the act was an intrusion of the federal government into the affairs of states and, second, that the Act interfered with the rights of private persons to do business, or not, with whomever they chose.[3]
More specifically, Goldwater had problems with title II and title VII of the 1964 bill. He felt that constitutionally the federal government had no legal right to interfere in who people hired, fired; or to whom they sold their products, goods, and services. He felt that power laid in the various states, and with the people. He was a strong advocate of the tenth amendment. Goldwaters constitutional stance did not mean he agreed with the segregation and racial discrimination practiced in the South. To the contrary, he fought against these kinds of racial divides in his own state of Arizona. He supported the integration of the Arizona National guard and Phoenix public schools.[4] Goldwater was, also, a member of the NAACP and the Urban League.

... I would agree on principle with Goldwater on intrusion of the federal government.
BUT it doesn’t change the fact that a higher number of GOP supported civil rights.
***NIKK was looking for facts to argue with a liberal, not to argue conservative principles with another conservative.
P.S. everyone hated LBJ, he being a racist was only one reason. So why side with the liberals on this one?
Good morning Lysie. Happy mopping Monday!
Prayers for your granddaughter.

Am expecting to get truck back from shop today and must return rental.
Controlled blackouts in NYC .... during hot summer months.
What could go wrong?
Thank you Rusty for all your hard work in explaining and getting this info together.
I am so sick of the left revising history.
As someone old enough to remember the 60’s and the Civil Rights movement, I’m sick of the dims trying to co-opt and take credit for something they opposed.
Dims cannot accept their own history because it is despicable.
The Republican Party has always been the Republican Party, they did not switch with the Democrat Party.
This LIE drives me nuts.
Waiting for the lie that Hanoi Jane is a pubbie!!
Good morning, Gran.
Prayers being said for your dear granddaughter.
Very scary. I dont blame you for being a worry wort.
