66. I thought the snowflakes might enjoy a hot tub, which they did,
however I inadvertently dropped one, little Santorum Brownback W. Snowflake III, down the drain. Before I realized he was missing I used Drano. Oh, the humanity. :cry:

yes thanks, I have one 12,000 btu in my living room. It helps a great deal for most of the house. I feel bad for the animals, they are dying all over the area. And the elderly too. Those who can't really help themselves. It's hot but I feel very fortunate.

176. E X A C T L Y!!!
There was a medical emergency while there...a woman began to faint - I observed her myself, instantly grasping she was ill and no one, no one made a move to question or assist her so I missed some of it because I had to attend her but I'm a nurse. I'm bound to assist ethically. So to me, it's just the work of a day. But what blew me away was again, that no one, no one even enquired. And one had the audacity to say to me.."that's a helluva place for someone to sit." I hissed at her that the lady was ill and she had the gall to challenge me again! and I couldn't move because I had to stand in front of her to protect her from possibly falling. And know what? The majority of those people in there were Democrats. My town and state (CT) are fairly solidly blue so consider...I was among peers! Heartbreak.

132. Mike's rage about suffering children is completely what I feel
I love how Mike will say "imagine if it were his child"...
This is exactly how most of us think. If it were our
child that was screaming in pain, missing limbs,
in shock, feeling terror...how would we feel if some jerk
was talking about our suffering, our child like they
WERE NOTHING!.

Mike, I feel this pain for these families, like you do,
like most of us do. It's gut wrenching to watch this
kind of man-made, disgusting disaster.

140. hi ralps & everyone--is this the article mike was talking about?
"Israel says its weapons meet international law

TYRE, Lebanon (CNN) -- As battles have raged between Israel and Hezbollah in recent days, many Lebanese casualties have been rushed to hospitals with severe burns. Steadily, more and more people in southern Lebanon have accused Israel of packing its bombs with phosphorus.

Mohammad Khalifeh, Lebanon's health minister, said there are high suspicions Israel is using a new type of weapon, resulting in wounds not seen before in hospitals. He said the weapons may contain phosphorus. "There is no evidence but high clinical suspicions, and this is still under investigation,"

At one hospital in Tyre, Dr. Wahid Najir said he believes the Israeli military has used chemicals to burn those hit. "This is the effect of phosphorus," he said, speaking of a 9-year-old boy with severe wounds to his face. "This is phosphorus of course."

The boy's family was traveling in a vehicle when it was struck.

International rules of war forbid the use of weapons that cause indiscriminate suffering, but make no specific reference to phosphorus. --From CNN's Karl Penhaul (Posted 1:53 p.m.)"

163. Hi, MamaBear!
I think I'll have to consult with you before attending the next one! One moment I was listening to people speak and then I snapped when one of the councilwomen announced we could not clap and remain silent..2,000 of us...which of course I immediately started clapping and that started off the whole "Freedom of Speech" shouting...and I lost all sense of where I was and who I was addressing and somehow she transformed herself into bush before my eyes and something gave way inside me and at that moment, I couldn't have cared less WHO threatened me...know what I mean? Which is why I'd better start staying home!

168. Simple rules ...
Wear comfy shoes.
No dangly ear rings; no pony tails or braids.
Have the numbers the local legal aide written on your inner arm in ink.

Hey, all you did was yell. I showed them my, uh, ass-ets a couple of times. You gotta pick your venues carefully, and not be within grabbing distance of anybody dressed in blue. Also, many of the guys with headbands were cops. The headbands were supposed to cover up the line of the wigs they wore. as well as hold the wig on. LOL. :rofl: :rofl:


We might as well let it hang out because we may be raptured right out of our sensible shoes.....

I am PROUD OF YOU!! :woohoo: :yourock:

174. MamaBear, EXCELLENT mentoring!!!
It's funny - as I was yelling, I not only was caught up in the emotion and passion of my daily rage and for a brief moment, it was like I was in a black hole..but then the voice of reason kicked in, and I was able to hear my own thoughts which were basically holding fast to the thought that, yes, Mary, it's only yelling and lady, you are NOT going to stop me from exercising my rights... but it worried me that I found even a deeper spot of rage for one brief moment and that's when I got a hold of myself. Whew! Here's a great thing...one speaker ended his very intense expression of his feelings and ended with "and we're not gonna take it" and to my shock and surprise AND delight, I heard many others anticipate his words and be able to say the words with him! It was a moment of hope.

I agree with you 100% regarding the upcoming rapturization...maybe something more like "instantaneous vaporization" or something vivid that conjures up a distastful image within them ... that would be an appropriate re-naming, a skill Gingrich's gang mastered - maybe it's time for them/us to reframe the issues? It's a technique that certainly has worked for them. We're smarter than they are. Surely someone out there can/must be able to make something shift in their simple minds. I certainly don't know. I'm fresh out of ideas...

I'm on "eat, drink and be merry"/Mary mode now. I so hope I'm wrong. You're a very cool lady. Thank you.

173. It'w worse than that.
The people who develop these weapons and the people who use them don't think for one moment about the effects those weapons will have except to revel in the abstract. Sometimes when they get up close, they find it ain't so much fun.

I guy I knew really well went to Vietnam the picture of gung ho and come home an addict; for a while we were afraid he'd be a hopeless addict. Sometime near the end of his tour, I think it was, by the tone of his letters, I think he looked.

Then he had to learn to live with whatever it was he saw. :cry:

I think war is wrong in just about every scenario. It's good for such a small number of people, and beyond horrible for virtually everybody else.
