Like her bob much better…..no it’s not sexist….it’s just hair and people talk about what’s new and departs from the norm….they’d talk if Charlie gell spiked his hair.

LOL Ms Dee…today’s affirmation. “I am not a Bitch!”

Kryssi…..I’m here from the Soy Survivors Network to commiserate….I got sucked in by Organic Vanilla Soy-Milk lattes, myself. That’s how they get you hooked. So during this unfortunate period of withdrawal, dear, you can be as Shane as you wish. I’m changing my response to Sporty & Svelte….it feels good on my tongue as if other ‘Ss’ can force all the Soy out. Damned Soy! Fooled again!

Super-Lotto winning, Size 4, Sherry-Sipping Scholar & her little Sheltie, too.

What does ‘turfed’ mean?

Actually, the only dream I can ever remember having is this: I am in the pasta aisle of a market in Montecito, Pierre La Fonde I think. Jesus is there in long silk bright yellow and purple robes. His hair is long, fresh looking and flowing. He regards me with a a beatific smile and his hands are folded in namaste. But I had that vividly unforgettable dream when my life was perfect and I was sweet. Today, he’d probably wallop me with a package of Angel Hair pasta and direct me to sit in the corner after writing on the blackboard 1000 times, “I shall not be a bitch.”

That would be the dream where I am crowned “Miss Nude Universe” and win a billion bucks, a Lear Jet and mansions on Lake Geneva & Lake Como. The question was ‘favorite’ dream, right?

Marta- “The day we can erase from the face of earth the arms dealers, that day peace will be nearer.” I certainly agree but look no further than the US [world’s biggest arms dealer] and families like the Bush’s that have made fortunes in arms dealing, and corporations like Citigroup that have made fortunes on money laundering that keeps arms/drugs dealers in business. But what do people really care about? It can be measured daily by looking at Google Trends. For today…..most people are interested in tonight’s rare conjunction of Jupiter, Venus and the moon: http://www.google.com/trends/hottrends

Greetings, I’m here on behalf of the La Jolla Defense League. lol

Phyllis, “Susan’s statement about do we really care what the rest of the world thinks of us put me in somewhat of a frenzy.” lol. Me, too. Although I have ‘Faux News” family members who come up with lines like that. Politeness keeps me from smothering them with a pillow. Ha.

I’m high maintenance….and besides that little mirror in my tiny clutch might someday be used to shine light in the eyes of attacking hordes or start a campfire on a desert island. A Girl Scout is always prepared.

Obama’s 15 minute articulate announcement of his Security Team contained more intelligence, wisdom and competence than did the entire 8 years of Bush Inc. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/12/01/obama-set-to-introduce-cl_n_147… He also has barred Faux News from his last 5 press conferences….good for him.

Hillary Clinton, like all of Obama’s choices, is a brilliant selection. She has immediate global stature, knowledge and good will…..none of which Condi Rice had coming in as Provost of Stanford University. And she doesn’t have what Condi did have, an oil tanker named after her, nor does HRC sit on Boards of Directors of oil companies as did Condi. Nor is she a crony selection as was Condi Rice. Hillary Clinton will be the best Sect’y of State America has ever seen…..and she has something that Condi didn’t have. A Rhoades Scholar /former US president husband who is beloved around the world. How’s that as a sidekick to help carry the luggage?

“But I will ask you this—do you truly care what the whole world thinks of us?” Seeing that world opinion effects everything from trade and tourism to terrorism….yes…those of us with brains do care….a lot. That is why JFK started the Peace Corps to counter the global ‘Ugly American’ perspective. “We are an extraordinarily generous nation who gives and helps over and above the rest of world and gets little credit.” This does not happen to be true when compare the % of nation’s giving in relationship to their GNP. We don’t even pay our UN dues. “I would be rather be safe and prosperous” we are neighter safe or prosperous thanks to GWB. We haved the biggest deficit in the history of the world, we are the largest debtor nation on Earth, we spend more on military than all other industrial nations on Earth and less than all of them on education and health care, and have been fighting a phony, illegal oil war based on lies in a country 2/3rds the size of California….without them having launched one plane in defense….and have been there longer than it took us to win WII—a global war across many continents. “We were attacked just 8 months into the Bush presidency, so it wasn’t him that caused us to be attacked.” This is total hogwash. Read “A Nedw Pearl Harbor” and get a few facts. There is so much that is incorrect, naive, and ignorant of world events/facts/causes and consequences in this one paragraph….that suggest you stop discussing ‘lighter fare’ like ‘boob jobs’ with your girlfriends and start serious reading, listening to NPR, watching The News Hour, etc…..unless you’d prefer to have a 3rd grader’s view of the world for the rest of your life. Citizens have responsibility to be informed….and that doesn’t mean by parroting Fox News propaganda.
