Here’s my gratuitous cleavage shot. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
See more at the Fifth Annual Blogger Boobiethon which raises money for Breast Cancer Research and where the front page is always work safe.
Lady bloggers, will you join me?
Newsbusters has the transcript of the View where the following exchange appears…
O’Donnell: “I think the horror of imagining six to thirteen-year-old girls handcuffed together and shot execution style, one by one, is perhaps enough to awaken the nation that maybe we need some stricter gun control laws.”
This quickly led to an exchange with the program’s token conservative, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, in which O’Donnell asserted that there is no right to own a gun:
Hasselbeck: “So you can’t- You can’t take way the right to, to bear arms.”
O’Donnell: “Well, it’s not really a right. There’s debate as to what that-“
Hasselbeck: “It is a right. It’s in our Constitution. It’s the Second Amendment.”
O’Donnell: “Well, let’s talk instead of yell.”
Hasselbeck: “I’m not yelling.”
Rosie, the first ten amendments are known as “THE BILL OF RIGHTS’. The Second Amendment is included in the first ten. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10…
Elizabeth Hasselbeck – you go girl!
Go read the rest.
CBS’ version that is…
The Anchoress has insightful commentary, as always…
And she just reached a milestone of 2 million visitors! We can only aspire to that….
I was looking at the partially drained pool this afternoon to see what I needed to do to get it completely drained and surprise, surprise, there was a dead black squirrel floating in what water was left… eeeeewwwwww…..
Hubby had to don the disposable gloves and retrieve the carcass and bag it for garbage pick-up tomorrow. What timing.
We had a series of really bad storms last night. The squirrel may have gotten in the pool to shelter (it’s a soft sided pool with an inflated ring at the top), gotten trapped, and drowned. He (or she) may have fallen from the tree above the pool. I don’t think the squirrel had been hit by lightning as it didn’t seem burnt, but you never know.
Hubby said it was stiff. Rigor had set in. I do believe that is consistent with a death within 24 hours. I hope it hadn’t been there longer than that.
eeeewwwww
10/03/06 – Happy 3rd blogiversary Captain Ed!
Two claim fatherhood for Anna Nicole’s baby girl. Of course they do. They want control (or some control) over the millions that Anna may receive from J. Howard Marshall II’s estate…
The Dow reached a closing high of 11,727.34. The intraday high was 11,758.95.
The economy is doing quite well, thank you very much Mr. Bush for those tax cuts!
Support Dunkin Donuts and Applebees. They check to make sure their employees are legal. We had Applebees’ Carside To Go just last Thursday.
The woman who carried me inside, then carried me outside and still occasionally figuratively picks me up and carries me!
These pictures were taken less than 30 days before I was born…
Happy Birthday Lady Mine!
We’re a month and change away from the mid-term elections. As far as I can tell the Dems (with a few exceptions) are OPPOSED TO:
Bush,
NSA,
Coercive interrogation techniques against captured terrorists,
Bush,
Staying the course in Iraq,
Bush, and
Bush.
The Dems are IN FAVOUR OF:
………………………………well, not Bush.
Right now the Dems are a reactionary, ideological political movement. They are not, by any reasonable measure, a political party with a positive message (platform) detailing how they would direct the management of the country.
The Dems are gambling that this mid-term will be about what people don’t want, rather than what people want. They are wrong, and as a result, will not make any material gains in either the House or Senate.
It’s a shame too. A healthy functioning democracy requires a legitimate government in waiting.
It’s time for the Dems to get in the game, rather than shouting insults from the sidelines. The country needs a legitimate healthy democratic debate.
