Garlic stuffed olives - no one will come near you - that’s what I have....
YUM, but I shall put them on shopping list!!!!!
Way to go, SW!
No doubt Spielbrg, etc are giving them (or Rahmbo - isn’t his bro in show biz?) advice...POSs can pay for their own healthcare thanks to saps like the public...
It's worth tuning in Fox to see.
On another note, Meghan Kelly just said, "Some people say Obama has governed from the Left, although there are other people that say he has been a centrist." Sheesh, Meghan. We're not stupid, and we don't have time for crap like this.
But it assumes Stupak won't flip.
Seriously friend, there are things in that paper that the left and the right can rally TOGETHER. I am starting to rethink my defensive posture about the insurance companies. I mean the freaking bill was WRITTEN BY THEM. This just makes me know that we need to talk to the other side. They don’t like it either, but for different reasons. They are seeing evil too, and what they are saying about the “evil” they see, well they are right. I can’t begin to tell you how I’m gagging on those words.
Did you read the one comment left by by one of the blog visitors over there? She said, I can’t believe we agree with John Boehner on this. UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE
I'm hooked on the olive stuffed with almonds. Yum.
Wasn’t it Mr, Slaughter who died while mountain climbing in Switzerland?
Becareful with that info - when this goes thru, the IRS will be fining your fanny!
I have vodka, but, alas, no bloody mary mix and that really sounds good.
I have some old B Mary mix. Wonder how long it lasts?
Mmmmm.......My cousin and her husband are ex-bartenders. They are also my favorite relatives to visit. We let the non-drinker drive us home while we makes drunken fools out of ourselves in the car. But damn, we have fun!
Paul Ryan raising a point of order!
Go Paul!

House Democrats not on this list are expected to vote yes.
All House Republicans are expected to vote no, but President Barack Obama has reportedly called Rep. Joseph Cao (R-La.) to urge him to vote yes. However, Cao, who is a proponent of the Stupak language, is still expected to reject the bill.
If every member votes and all GOP lawmakers vote no, the maximum number of Democratic defections to pass a bill is 37, which would result in a 216-215 tally.
“Wasnt it Mr, Slaughter who died while mountain climbing in Switzerland?”
Did he throw himself off?
I would not doubt it at all.
