Mom of 7. Kitties that is. If it has four legs or wings I’ll feed it. Incredibly hurt if a kitty doesn't come to me. Loves a good mystery, Jane Austen, and a mean old-fashioned.

Last Tuesday we all understood the assignment. Apparently some Democrats didn’t receive the memo. What a slap in the face.

I wish the media would stop lending gravitas to their “misgivings”. It’s phony and we all know they will capitulate in the end.

Murkowski:
“Rather than taking the deliberative approach to good legislating, we rushed to get a product out. I struggled mightily with the impact on the most vulnerable in this country…”.
Loosely translated “As long as the wealthy get their tax cuts, F the rest of you.”

Anyone else tired of the engineered melodrama that is always Murkowski and Collins?
M&C: I have very serious concerns.
Literally anyone: It’ll be fine (wink, wink, fingers crossed)
M&C: (when it all goes belly up) I am so disappointed!
Lather, rinse, repeat.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.
They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.
France also gave us this land as American soil.

LM should read Heather Cox Richardson’s post today. “We were thunderstruck and stunned; and we reeled and fell in utter confusion. But we rose each fighting... When the storm shall be past, he shall find us still Americans; no less devoted to the continued Union and prosperity of the country..”
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R): "We are all afraid…I am oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice because retaliation is real."

Dear Congress,
Senator Lisa Murkowski says "We are scared." — I'm inclined to believe her. That being said, you signed up for a job. You are our last line of defense against Donald Trump. You are supposed to represent us no matter the cost to you. We the people are begging you to help us NOW.

If you take this article and replace all references of T —> Biden and Republicans —> Democrats, would you be outraged? Or still silent?
PS. If you assume I would’ve been silent because I am (now was) a Democrat you’d be dead wrong.
