Our fictive president attempted to save his hopes for a second term last night. Dr.K said it wasn't there. He further said the base will love it, but independents and cross over voters will not buy in. Twitter was alive with chatter that MSNBC and CBS pundits were dismally attempting to say something positive.

Best part of the evening was when Cardinal Dolan walked out and prayed for the unborn. A hero. He walked into the end of a celebration of abortion and prayed for the defenseless. Praise God. Obama walked off and didn't remain for the prayer, of course. I heard Dolan was booed. Caroline Kennedy, a supposed Catholic, spoke earlier in favor of abortion. May God work a miracle in her heart.

Rise and Shine! 59 Days till we throw the bum out!

Queen Elizabeth participates in Empty Chair Day, selects a chair for the lawn of Buckingham Palace. Did Obama diss the Britts last night? Must have.

I grow weary of the fictive vitriol of the Leftists.

OMG! I missed that because I wasn't watching the fictive pres'ent spin his fictitious version of our nation and the job he has done dis-mantling it. I would have loved to have heard Cardinal Dolan.

Fictive.

You rang?

Yesterday was our first full day back from our trip to settle my mom. We were driving down a street in a nearby town and there was an empty Adirondack chair sitting on a lot with a sign nearby. I made my husband turn the car around so I could read the sign because I thought it was some sort of political statement. Alas, I think it was just instruction to landscapers who had cut all the brush in preparation for building a new house.

I tried out my new Paul Ryan “Math” shirtyesterday and got lots of thumbs up.

If you were watching CSPAN you heard it, most networks dropped it before Dolan. Not sure about FOX.

I saw a vid of it, try googling it.

Caption the Queen: “WHO did THAT in that chair?!!!”

[tioga]

Cardinal Dolan

[tioga]

Nah, she’s saying “THIS is the chair I want on the lawn for Empty Chair Day!”

[tioga]

I hear ya, I watched all 3 nights of the DNC....gag me. I took a long hot shower this morning. A+

Not only did he pray for the unborn, he also prayed for Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan! Right in the belly of the beast! LOL.

You can say what you want about Cardinal dolan, but you can’t say that he doesn’t have a sense of humor!

[mikrofon]

O’s record as leader is fictive-
With Congress he’s outright vindictive.
If he gets four more years,
It could clinch all our fears
That his power would be unrestrictive.

Another fictive jobless report for August is just out.

The unemployment rate just went down to 8.1% but thats because over 350,000 more people dropped out of the workforce.

[thingumbob]

Oh, and we only created 95,000 jobs supposedly....

I wonder what the revision downward will be next week.....

[count-your-change]

Fictive

Now here’s an easy one. Atkinsonville Intergallactic Airways built their own airplane from the school bus they were using but it was de-fictive.

[xsmommy]

nothing fictive in Cardinal Dolan’s prayer.
