Dear Margo: When You Think You've Heard Everything ... You Haven't
HEY LP:
"REALLY - IT IS NOT ABOUT YOU."
Absolutely, it’s the bride’s day not yours, get over yourself.
LP, you hit the nail on the head.
Re: ltr #2: It could be worse, it could be a catholic priest running the day care.
The Palin Book, as Dear Margo Sees It
Hey K:
I don’t think it was the pregnant teen that created problems.
I think it was that Palin was and is:
all razzle dazzle and no substance.
If a grown woman can’t even name a magazine or newspaper - whether she read them or not - she has to be pretty dense. It wouldn’t take more than one conversation for someone to see how un-informed she is. She’s a huckster, nothing more. Also, I have never heard her take responsibility for anything, its always someone else’s fault. I would hope that the GOP has something better to offer in 2012, she’s just a bad joke.
The Palin Book, as Dear Margo Sees It
Hey Cecile:
Unfortunately, I have had the same thoughts. Bush basically destroyed the economy and the country. NO ONE could honestly deny that. So they set McCain up with the "Huckster from Alaska" to give the election to "the black guy".
Little did they know, THEY SHOT THEMSELVES IN THE LEG. Obama is and will be a Great President.
The Palin Book, as Dear Margo Sees It
HEY KARLEEN:
ANXIETY: IT’S LIKE WATCHING A TRAIN WRECT - YOU DON’T REALLY WANT TO SEE THE WRECKAGE, BUT YOU JUST CAN’T TURN AWAY.
TRUTH IS: WHAT WAS MCCAIN THINKING? OR WAS HE THINKING?
Whoever??? on McCain’s team that suggested Palin as VP should be delegated to latrine duty. OOPS, they were probably already on latrine duty.
How I Survived the Madoff Scandal, by Kim Rosen
BABY SNOOKS:
What a sincere and deeply beautifully written post. I like you so much right now, I might even vote republican if you asked. (Please don’t ask).
Liz Smith: The Redemption of Alec Baldwin
HI LIZ: I forgot that wonderful Kathy Bates line. So funny.
Liz, I’m so happy to know that you’re a supporter of Alec Baldwin too.
I think life with Kim must have been a little bit of hell. I remember how he was always by her side through all her legal problems, family problems, home town problems - seems like a lot of problems to deal with. Then he goes to Africa with her and does the house-husband thing, supporting her career. All this and SHE WOULDN’T EVEN UNPACK at their Hamptons home. She wanted to live in CA and didn’t even TRY to make a life with him in the east. I guess it was one of those give and take relationships.
HE GAVE - SHE TOOK!
The last straw was the obvious attempt to destroy him by leaking that horrible tape. I thank God no one ever taped me when my kids drove me up a wall and I blew.
As far as I’m concerned Alec Baldwin, Michael Douglas and George Clooney are it. I’m always happy for their success.
Dear Margo: He Wants You to What?
MARGO, MARGO, MARGO: How do you keep your sanity?
How can you deal with so much insanity, without losing it and saying:
GET A F..K..G GRIP!
WHY are women writing to you, asking for ADVICE on how to deal with situations that are SO outside of reasonable expectations in any form of a healthy relationship? WHY don’t they instinctively KNOW? This is sick!
HOW DO YOU DO IT? I realize you have been writing/responding via your column for many years, but don’t you ever get BURNED OUT with the crazy, inane requests for advice?
DON’T YOU EVER WANT TO SAY: This is f..k..g NUTS, or
Get yourself SOME therapy and SOME self-esteem!
Wives agreeing to "intense, private lap dances with strippers", or wives listening to husbands fantasies about their friends, etc.
IF MY HUSBAND ever suggested ANY OF THE ABOVE, he’d be BOBBITED!
Of course, my ex KNEW better - because he knew I would never tolerate such BS. It’s called SELF-RESPECT.
LADIES: GET SOME SELF-RESPECT. Alimony is less debilitating, than emotional/sexual abuse. GROW SOME!
MARGO, I’m Awed by your restraint. I bow to your dignity.
Liz Smith Addresses Michael Jackson Movie Rumors (Video)
HEY JOHN:
WHEN - His parents, sibs, reps, so-called friends, columnists, tabloids, paps, etc., have bled the poor guys body/corpse dry.
AND THEN: Like Elvis, Marilyn, etc. FOREVER.
THATS WHEN!
Most of the same creeps who used and/or persecuted him in life, will cash in - in his death. Sick, Sad, but true.
Please, PRAY for his children, they’ll need it.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is travelling as diplomat, representing the USA, not a women’s right activist. She did the appropriate thing.
Dear Margo: This Was, Perhaps, an Ill-Considered Offer
HEY FRANKIE:
A LITTLE DEFENSIVE - AREN’T WE?
OR
Oops, I got caught with my hand in my pants - and I don’t like it.
That’s Fine Frankie: I just won $80. on your obvious response. Out of 5 women, only one gave you more credit than you deserve. She too, will probably be cooking dinner for some lazy guy in the next day or two.
My Body is My Business!
Enjoy, Bon Appetite!
P.S. Hope your hand is o.k.
Dear Margo: This Was, Perhaps, an Ill-Considered Offer
Oh Frank:
Let’s just say, ‘We’ve all been there before’.
Frankie Boy, I think it would be great if you could get in touch with your feminine side. However, if your right hand is busy tonight, maybe you could use your left!
Dear Margo: This Was, Perhaps, an Ill-Considered Offer
Dear Margo: When Idiot Strangers Speak
Hey Alice:
I SO agree, that book was a reality check. I had my friends laughing out loud when I compared it to the teachings of Gandhi and Jesus. But really, all the heartache I could have saved myself if only someone had expressed that when I was young and romantically foolish. I’d make any excuse for someone I thought I loved, he’s shy, he’s insecure, he’s been burned, etc, etc, etc. If only someone had said, "he’s just not that into you". Oh, o.k. Now I get it. Young and dumb no more.
