In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of Word for the Day.
Limn
tr.v. limned, limn·ing (lmnng), limns
Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.
The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.

Troubled Start for Health Law Has Democrats Feeling Anxious
It appeared that the White House would have to do more to reassure Democrats who emerged from the 16-day government shutdown confident of their political fortunes, only to see Republicans roar back on a wave of anger over the health care law. People are anxious, said Senator Richard J. Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Democrat. I dont think theres confidence by anyone in the room, said Senator Jeff Merkley, an Oregon Democrat up for re-election next year, as he emerged from the closed-door meeting in the Capitol. /toldjaso ;-)
Well, I know it’s bright where I sit ;) lol
"6 ENROLLEES ON FIRST DAY?
'SNL' SKIT CORRECTLY PREDICTED
I think it was probably 9. They just stood it on it’s head because thats what they do with Logic.
Some call Banksy’s limns art, many call it vandalism.
There is a nasty campaign for DA here in my namesake county. The Dem has been attacking the Rep on his corruption. He is a convicted drunk driver who when stopped in this county for it the sheriff covered it up because he was an assistant DA. I will be voting Dem for the first time in my life on Tuesday.
I suspect it’s graffiti. LOL
I thought today was all saints day, tomorrow all souls day.
I attempted to limn the Obamacare situation to some Liberal coworkers, but they convinced that the government would never do us wrong.
The herd of limnings hurtled off the cliff and plopped into the ocean like hundreds of furry Alka Seltzer tablets.
*sigh*.... I would say, a personal failing, is less than a political one. While I do disagree with people, theoretically taking other peoples lives in their own hands by being on the roads hammered, and I am sure you’ve seen your share of those types of accidents, I disagree with notion of defining drunk down, to where 2 glasses of wine over a dinner puts you,
OVER the limit and under arrest. YOU WILL BE CAUGHT!!!!!!!!!
AmeriKa at its finest.
NOT.
