[Alas Babylon!]

When I was stationed in DC I used to go fishing (a lot) at Patuxent Naval Air Station, right off of the golf course. There was an osprey nest nearby but the water off the fishing spot was very deep (mouth of the Patuxent River). Saw them catch fish in the back bays of the golf course very often.

You describe it to a T and bring back many memories!

Or are you talking about “moobs”?

Yes.

Air between the legs, they come out with a report that the State Dept. blew it on Benghazi but HILLARY NOT EVEN MENTIONED

Only in the crazy world of the Democrats is the head of an agency not responsible for anything....Sebelius, that ugly awful IRS woman, Hillary.....OBAMA!

They are never responsible but Christie? They want to hang him!

I actually just watched a Gates interview on Fareed Zakariah, first time I have turned to CNN in years. (Could not tolerate MTP)

Reasonable questions and comprehensive answers.

Does anyone know why Gates is wearing a really serious neck brace?

[ROCKLOBSTER]

The Republican political elite is even growing breasts!

That is a great line Pat.

I think a woman, such as yourself, should rudely throw that on them in some wide broadcast manner, like an op-ed in the paper, or a soundbite on the TV news.

[Lakeside Granny]

It’s Sunday, we’re not on, and we don’t know what to do with ourselves.
Yes they do! :)

I’m sure they are both in church praying for their very souls. What do you think?

Voter fraud is a problem since the Marxist will justify anything including fraud for their candidates. That can only be beaten by getting every one of your votes in and beating their projections like Bush did. They did not expect as heavy a turnout and they mis-marked some votes in Miami that under-produced their manufactured votes.

[Seattle Conservative]

You paint a lovely picture!

They are amazing to watch! I’ve see them dive - - couldn’t believe they went and stayed in the water like they did. Always came up with a catch!

[Seattle Conservative]

Ah, now I see where I went wrong - thanks for the tip! Now I know to lay off the spuds and crackers ;-)

[Fishtalk]

Okay, here’s my story.

Many of you know there was a property dispute on my fence line last April, yes right when my husband died, it was awful, surveyors for the a**holes from New Jersey behind me all measuring on THE DAY OF MY HUSBAND’s FUNERAL though I begged them to go away.

Turns out that I had a legal and certified survey of my own, obtained over ten years prior when I bought my house. But did the Sussex county Emperor of fence lines contact me to ask what I had to say about it? NO! He sent me a notice to move my fence by a date certain of the county would take it down.

So I fought and I went on TV and I went to the county council, got a big write-up in the newspaper and I wrote....well you guys know I wasn’t going to take it sitting down. I also write a very caustic column on Delaware politics and lots of people read it. I won the battle because....well I’d like to say it was my genius but the fact is...I WAS IN THE RIGHT! The Czar of property boundaries , UNELECTED, doesn’t get to boom, declare me guilty with no chance to defend myself, to destroy my propery for his builder buddies.

I have quite a few influential friends here in Sussex county and last week they are all sending me notices of a hearing in Dover.

GET THIS!

It seems that every one of my elected Reps and state senators all signed onto a new law that would restrict surveyed property disputes to six years after the survey and to three years in the event of a property dispute that is known.

You see what this does to me?

I have had this survey for ten years and now...what? It’s useless?

The friends I have told me of a hearing on this new law, time place. It was put into committee in mid May 2103...right when my dispute was going on.

The hearing was supposed to be last week but it’s been changed. I am heading to Dover yes I am yes I am. They are going to look me in the eye and tell me this is not for their builder buddies to MY detriment.

Oh yeah, been writing columns and talking directly to my elected guys who are all jibberjabbering and I think they’re nervous about it.

Have any of you ever heard of such a thing? A special limit for property surveys? Why are they to get special status as opposed to....say...a lawyer?

So the New Jersey guy behind me causing so much grief for the two feet of land that he can’t do a thing with that he says my fence is on....HE GETS A CHANCE TO SUE HIS SURVEYOR!

BUT I DON’T????

I tell you Delaware is vicious, vicious. We got the blue north and the very red south but I am not daunted.

An entire state law to get back at me?

We shall see.

[Seattle Conservative]

Oh, great idea! That works for me!! Now you have me hungry for Chinese food and it’s only 7:30 here (though I’ve been up for quite a while - - I almost feel like a kid at Christmas - -I’m both excited for and anxious about the game today.

[Fishtalk]

I will be watching the game and thinking of you!

[ROCKLOBSTER]

It seems impossible to eat the dip without the chips, but celery and carrots work pretty good. (Mmmmm....Lobster dip)

What a pukefest on ABC with snufalufagus.

“Does anyone know why Gates is wearing a really serious neck brace?”

Yes. Saw him on a couple of FNC shows this week - he said he was a little embarrassed - slipped on a rug and fell.

[mylife]

Take a ride on the Maine Eastern.
You’ll see a load of osprey nests.

While on Charlie Rose, Gates said he tripped on a rug. He better be careful as a trip on a rug is the least of what may happen to him, remember Vince Foster?

The real weapon the Dems cannot touch is targeted voter acquisition. They do have an advantage with voter fraud, but they have basically tapped out their resources in that. They only have so many inner city districts they can get 110% turnout while ours have been neglected.

We import hundreds of thousands of future Dem voters every year thru our immigration policies. Coupled with higher minority birthrates, the Dems are well on their way to becoming the permanent majority party. Each cohort that turns 18 every year is more Dem and more minority. By 2019 half of the children 18 and under will be minorities and by 2043, half of the country will be minorities.

U.S. Census Bureau Projections Show a Slower Growing, Older, More Diverse Nation a Half Century from Now

The non-Hispanic white population is projected to peak in 2024, at 199.6 million, up from 197.8 million in 2012. Unlike other race or ethnic groups, however, its population is projected to slowly decrease, falling by nearly 20.6 million from 2024 to 2060.

Meanwhile, the Hispanic population would more than double, from 53.3 million in 2012 to 128.8 million in 2060. Consequently, by the end of the period, nearly one in three U.S. residents would be Hispanic, up from about one in six today.

The black population is expected to increase from 41.2 million to 61.8 million over the same period. Its share of the total population would rise slightly, from 13.1 percent in 2012 to 14.7 percent in 2060.

The Asian population is projected to more than double, from 15.9 million in 2012 to 34.4 million in 2060, with its share of nation's total population climbing from 5.1 percent to 8.2 percent in the same period.

The U.S. is projected to become a majority-minority nation for the first time in 2043. While the non-Hispanic white population will remain the largest single group, no group will make up a majority.

All in all, minorities, now 37 percent of the U.S. population, are projected to comprise 57 percent of the population in 2060. (Minorities consist of all but the single-race, non-Hispanic white population.) The total minority population would more than double, from 116.2 million to 241.3 million over the period.

Projections show the older population would continue to be predominately non-Hispanic white, while younger ages are increasingly minority. Of those age 65 and older in 2060, 56.0 percent are expected to be non-Hispanic white, 21.2 percent Hispanic and 12.5 percent non-Hispanic black. In contrast, while 52.7 percent of those younger than 18 were non-Hispanic white in 2012, that number would drop to 32.9 percent by 2060. Hispanics are projected to make up 38.0 percent of this group in 2060, up from 23.9 percent in 2012.

The nation’s total population would cross the 400 million mark in 2051, reaching 420.3 million in 2060.

Thanks Pat! Last week I got so nervous in the 4th quarter, I got up and started scrubbing down the kitchen during commercials - - I suspect I’ll be scrubbing it down again or vacumming and dusting in the family room this week (I sometimes clean when I get nervous). Thought about going to my aunt’s or sister’s to watch the game, but decided to stay home. Hopefully, we’ll go to the SB — then I’ll watch the game with a group.

“Slipped on a rug”....???????

More likely to be treatment for the media whiplash he got from Speaking Against The 0.

...and he’s lucky all he got was that...

[Fishtalk]

I am watching Andrea Mitchell——what’s her claim to fame?...she’s married to Greenspan?

She’s defending Hillary and pointing out that the Ambassador refused extra security twice.

THIS is the fact that’s going to save Hillary....alas.

As I am to understand it, as I watch lots of tv in my status of a news junkee and despite going to church on Saturday.....it would have been a faux-pas for Stevens to accept Ham’s offer of help in that he’d already requested it from the State dept and was told it was unnecessary.

As to how this all came about with General HAm, it’s not clear. But I’ve heard this mentioned several times and I’m inclined to believe the political insiders that for Stevens to take Ham’s help would have put him in bad stead.

But hey, guys....they got this. All Hillary has to say now is “WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE? Stevens turned down help from General Ham doesn’t that tell you that he over-reacted?”

Or something.

The Repubs, all by now air between legs, no facial hair and now growing man-boobs won’t point out that if Stevens thought everything was so safe WHY DID HE ASK THE STATE DEPT TO BEGIN WITH? And they could maybe point out that bit about protocol and how Stevens was too loyal to the State dept to betray by accepting help denied him by same from the army.

Yeah....Hilla;y.....

THIS IS THE BEST THIS COUNTRY CAN COME UP WITH???
