I agree 100%

I have been watching the other threads and read Ivan's and Snugs posts..
Prayers for their safety and all of Britain

Hilarious! I love it. The MrTank pledge graphic looks great!

I must set the record straight, however. I leaked the Plame info but I can't reveal my sources just yet.

Prayers for our British allies and their families. SIL's family live near Reading.

Primary Challenge Faces More, uh...Challenges
By staff
Jul 6, 2005, 11:17

One of the problems individuals face when they run a campaign is getting candidates exposure. Seems Primary Challenge is no different.

Primary challenge is having problems getting face time for thier candidates. Campaigners for Rus Thompson showed up at a meeting in tonawanda last night wanting answers as to why their candidate for the County legislature cannot participate in the parade or for that matter even have a booth at Canal fest in a few weeks.

Organizers say that because of past controversy with political candidates, the rule is that they may march in the parade or have a booth, but only as a committee of the whole and not indivdually.

So Michele Ianello is able to march in the parade with the group of democrats, and Bruce Kaiser is allowed to march as the republican candidate, but that leaves no room for Rus Thompson and Primary Challenge.

It doesnt look any better for Thompson's chances of just showing up unannounced. Candidates are also not allowed to troll around the festival site and hand out information, a strict policy of Canal Fest organizers.

Although some may see it as a direct attack at Primary Challenge and Rus Thompson, Organizers say that's not the case.

The rest is in the link, Just another battle to fight!

Thanks Dixie. The ones in London are very much in our hearts and prayers.

These Spirituals have been so good lately and we need them more than ever.

Saw the pictures of your float the other day, hope everything turns out well for your campaign.

[Aquamarine]

side-splittingly hilarious (Rove told me to say that)

Rove is such a busy man. :)

Good to see ya Gabz, am glad you found it amusing. :)

[Aquamarine]

So you've heard she's alright? Was a little worried about her, thought I'd seen her talk about taking the train at times.

[DollyCali]

I have NOT heard from Snugs. posted to her & sent her FReep mail etc. will shoot off an email also..

think we will be cancelling trip to DC h.. heavy rains predicted & for a no sleep both way one day trip dont need a moonsoon. The increase concern with terrorists has made my driver a little "shaky" re trip. Next week perhaps.

[Aquamarine]

That's alright, we have so much in common it's easy to get us mixed up.

[Aquamarine]

You're welcome (((TO)))

[Aquamarine]

Thanks for noticing the new MrTank Pledge. Hope MrsTank gets by to see it today, it's a surprise.

Enjoyed your doggie pic's yesterday, was too busy working on this Post to stick around on that thread though.

[Aquamarine]

Sounds like they've put you in the underdog status. That's alright, most people like the underdogs. Go Rus!

[dutchess]

John, just when I think you can't get any better you do!!!!! (are you sure you're not Karl Rove????? :o) )

[dutchess]

Hi Aqua. You did GREAT!!!! The illustrations are PERFECT!!!! And I love that drip drip drip! Kudos sistah!!!!

Plus the pledge is really neat. Hope Mrs.Tank see's it!

[Billie]

Aqua, your pledge graphic of one of the pics Mrs Tank posted not long ago of her husband in Iraq is WONDERFUL!!! The graininess of that picture WORKS for this! KUDOS!!!!

[Billie]

SUPER DUPER, Mr.TwoCents! We sure get a lot for the money every Thursday!

EXCELLENT graphics, Aqua!

And then, who knew the focus would change so suddenly. :( Prayers for our Great Britain FRiends. Shock, Anger, Disbelief, Horror....we feel all those things and more and ever more thankful for our strong leaders in this War on Terror.

[Aquamarine]

Thanks (((Dutchess))) you were a big help to me, providing pictures and moral support. You know this one wasn't as easy for me as others have been.

Thanks for being there for me Sistah! :)

[Aquamarine]

I like the grittyness in the air on that picture. Shows how tough the job must be in such a harsh enviorment.
