Benediction
They sure don’t like to mention Libya much do they?
Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just...Thomas Jefferson
Suzy, I mean, Lincoln Chaffee on now.
Looks like a refugee from the Eyes Too Close Together Home.
Wonder if he used an antique bowl for that haircut.
Believe me it wasn’t easy/pleasant living in 1920s and 1930s’ we had our fun times but we had to pay for such in those years and for many there wasn’t many pay days.
BENEDICTION? They’re gonna have a benediction??
Looks like the dims got their very own Castro. I read they are pumping him up now for a national role in the future.
I miss Little House and all the good shows we were allowed to watch as kids. Just about everything today is trash, imo.
Oh, another movie we just watched and LOVED is “Some Like it Hot.” Jack Lemmon and Crew are hilarious. Also, “I Love Lucy” episodes send me rolling.
OK, I’m in trouble too for going wayyyy off-topic, but I couldn’t take the convention anymore. They had to strain to find any ordinary people in that crowd.
Poger that. Her Oooh-rah went over like a lead balloon.
He kinda looks like a goofy looking Bill Murray.
You’re right. We tend to glamorize the past. I wouldn’t have wanted to live through the Great Depression. My dad did and it scarred him for the rest of his life.
Has this moron see the debt clock recently?
Teddy Kennedy, what a guy, what every man should strive to be, letting a woman drown in his car while he saves his own ass..wow what integrity. THIS is who the Dems look up to, and they say that the Republicans are the ones waging a war on women.

Thank God for “NCIS,” to be followed by “NCIS LA.”. Then some “MASH” reruns. Old buddy of mine Facebooked that he is a die-hard convention junkey, but he could only last 15 minutes.
Obama saves babies lives now.
Now using the family as a prop.
A little surprised it is not the communist manifesto laying on each chair....lol
