Apparently (Yes he is your) President Trump surprised few people last night by picking Brett Kavanaughty-Boy to be the next victim of the Confirmation Inquisitors aka “The Senate Judiciary Committee.” I fell asleep after dinner and missed the announcement. According to former Governor Terry McAulifflower there are already thousands of dead bodies littering the streets of America just from the announcement. (Drive careful if you are commuting this morning.)
I hate to disappoint you but I don’t know if I should be excited or what. I know you guys pay big money so I will share my wisdom with you but right now I ain’t got any.
There are a bunch of different questions about Kavanaughty-Boy, such as “Will he be a good Justice?” and “Will he be confirmed?”
The only answer I have is “I dunno. Maybe.” to both questions.
(Stops to squash tiny little bug racing across his desk.)
Where was I? Oh, yeah – Is this an open thread?
I dunno. Maybe.
For some reason I have been sitting up in my sleep. I keep waking up sitting on the edge of the bed. (This is an improvement from waking up as I fall off the bed.)
The cats believe that if I am sitting up I am awake and proceed to bombard me with attention and demands for food. I keep telling them I am not a morning person but they do not care. Even Molly has gotten into the act. She comes into my room at zero-dark-30 hours and meows loudly until I get up and let her outside.
I am going to bed now. Hopefully I can get an hour or two of sleep in before the day shift starts.
When I brought Molly home from the shelter she was quiet and timid. The boys ruined her. Now she’s bossy.
Maybe you have sleep apnea and your apnea episodes are waking you. Do you sleep on your side? If not try that. Use pillows to make a cocoon so to speak. One in front of you, hold it like you are hugging or dancing. One small pillow between your legs to align your hips and finally a pillow behind you, spooning you.
The point is to keep you on your side because you are far less likely to suffer an apnea episode on your side. You can also use tennis balls in a fanny pack, with the balls in the small of your back. Any kind of sling works as long as it is secure. Again the balls will keep you on your side.
Those are both tests to see if you sleep longer and/or get more deep sleep. If you do get better sleep then you may be having apnea episodes. What you decide to do after that is up to you. Having been through all the expensive testing, blah, blah. I could have just purchased a CPAP on Amazon and saved myself a LOT of $. Hubby let me go through it, learned how to download all the data to adjust it.
Then hubby bought his own CPAP and used my charts as a model. No doctors, no hassle, no recurring appointments, no creepy insurance company uploading your sleep patterns via cell tower, etc., and a lot less $.
Good for you and Mr. Somebody. Those insurance companies are getting creepier by the day. Mine continues to harass me with phone calls “inviting” me to join their “house calls program”. I keep telling them I’m not interested in having people I don’t know in my private space. They keep insisting it is because it is a “wonderful and caring” program that will “help” me. So sick of these scams…
We get those “house calls programs” too. My dh has had the same doctor for 30 years and he stormed in to his office to say, take me off your call/email list. And they did. As for me, I use the Doc in the Box down the road for acute problems. About twice in 30 years. 🙂
Did you get your WiFi nightmare fixed ?
My dd#1 (IT wizard that she is) came over and spent all day yesterday fixing the mess for me – or at least trying to fix the very bad nightmare. She decided – with the assistance of her really good friend who works in the fraud division of a big company here – that it was a one-time thing and that it would most likely not happen again (I hope they’re right.) She gave me specific directions should if recur. I feel way less stressed right now. Thanks for checking.
Messing with second graderesque boys (which is what neutered cats are most like) will do that to any woman.

BWHAAAAA 😂
Dora, That’s exactly what I said when I heard that schmuck on the radio today.
It’s also what he said days before the announcement.
And this tweet, and all the others like it, explains why they have totally lost their shit.
I think my favorite part so far is watching the media react ….. and the people who notice….
I have no problem with the pick, he had me at CYO basketball coach 🙂
Oooops, I got duped, looks like a fake account. Just started tweeting last night, plus he has a poll up “Are you happy with my pick”. Note to self: read timelines before swooning and sharing.
The Face of the Democratic Party ….. today 😉
As Michele Obama said, “When they go low, we go high”, except she got it backwards.

this could be a reason the dems are so upset. Kavanaugh represented people who wanted Elia Gonzalos to stay in US and not be returned to Cuba
I was for Elian staying with his Miami family, after all his mom died trying to get him there.
I wanted him here with his family too. But this is what they did to him. Who could ever forget this picture? Poor frightened little boy.
Every time a Clinton opens their mouth about the border children, this photo gets posted 😀 Oh, and I don’t think his bio Dad gave a sh*t about the kid, Castro used him as a propaganda tool, it’s what communist countries do.
Absolutely, and Clinton never should have caved, and let that child go back to Cuba. The father was probably threatened with prison or worse.

https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/07/09/mcauliffe-kavanaugh-nom-scotus-gop/
is this what the dems are afraid of? after all it had been working so well for them before Trump
I talked Elliesdad into watching last night. The grandies had just left after 10 days with us so we were both tired. He is pleased with the pick and more pleased he voted for Trump everyday. (That was a hard sell, and until last night I wasn’t sure I had closed the deal.) Elliesdad’s comment was, “He’s a good dad, a loving husband, and a grateful son. He’s well-educated and has experience on the bench. But mostly, he’s humble.” I hadn’t thought about the humility part, but Elliesdad is right. If you’re humble, you’re less likely to believe you know better than the fellows who wrote the Constitution and all of the justices who have come before you. What kind of hubris does it take to invent something in the Constitution to push your personal agenda?
Elliesdad hadn’t been following the progression very well. With the kids here, it’s not easy to keep up with the news. When I described the four probable finalists to him before the announcement, he said, “It’s not going to be Amy Coney Barrett. Come on, this is Trump. He’ll save her for Ruthie’s replacement. He’ll have a larger Republican majority in the Senate after November, and how much longer can that crone be propped up?”
LOL I ❤ Elliesdad almost as much as I ❤ you! 🙂
Love it em ! I’ve never seen my dh so involved and vocal about politics until Trump. He choked up during Kavanaugh’s speech last night even though he had rooted for Barrett.
Fingers crossed for that Red Tsunami in November !
❤

Dispatches From The ‘Tolerant’ Left’s War On Trump Supporters
Angry Opposition: Every day brings new examples of the supposedly open-minded, inclusive, tolerant, peace-loving left threatening or attacking Trump administration officials or Trump supporters. Hatred and intolerance has been standard operating procedure on the extreme left. But thanks to enablers among Democrats and the press, it’s quickly becoming dangerously “mainstream.”

“professors” at Wyoming college want to change school motto Make more Cowboys. it is sexists and racist
has anyone told Dallas yet?
Bah! Until Booker finds the balls to come out of the closet, I’m not really interested in anything he has to say. He poses as a fearless maverick but in reality is just one more hateful nellie queen hiding n his walk-in closet.
In this day and age, why wouldn’t a gay Dem come out? His personal life is almost non-existent in a web search, late 40’s and pretty hot, how has he stayed so “single” for so long? I wouldn’t care, but the LGBTQRST’s would have a champion for their “cause”, a Senator fer crissakes. It’s just weird. I liked him a lot before he became a DemBot soldier of destroying all things Trump, including voting against a gay Ambassador.
The problem is that being gay and AA at the same time would ostracize him from the AA community. He rather have the ethnic vote behind him (pun very much intentional) than gays. Most AA men I know are on the down low because coming out brings the equivalent of a good old fashioned Amish shunning in their own community.
Ok, is this a politcal or social “rule”. One of my interns from my veterinary hospital office manager years, was a lovely white gay, who married a lovely black gay. They went on to create a YUGE affordable vet clinic franchise in the area.
It’s a (sub)cultural thing. Most of my gay AA friends dont dare let friends/family know because they’d be ostracized or worse. Years ago I had an AA bf who wouldn’t even bring me to his neighborhood because he needed to keep on the dl. And also I’m white, so according to him we both disappear. There are indeed exceptions like your friend and his bf. Far as I know, that’s unfortunately the exception and not the rule.
He’s AA. That subset has a huge issue with gay men.
Haven’t we already established that the cost of birth control is a lot less than a daily Starbucks habit? Priorities ladies, priorities.
weird question
if you paid someone to kill another person (retroactive abortion), you go to jail if you get caught. From what I understand the dems big problem is that the taxpayer will not pay for a woman to kill her baby (abortion) what is the difference?
PP has a political pac that gives millions to Dem politicians. That’s what bugs me most, it’s money laundering with MY money. Plus I’ve read too many creepy articles that they cover up for victims of pedophiles and sex traffickers. What about those frightened teen girls who kill their newborns and go to jail ? PP doesn’t seem to care about them even though they want to legalize 3rd trimester abortions? Where does it end for these ghouls?
So yes, my taxpayer money would be better spent at neighborhood free health clinics that takes care of the whole woman and her children.
Hmmm, so the Clintons want to be seen together.

It’s now at the point that I can no longer listen to ANY of the politicians – or their stand-ins. Earlier this morning one of the dem “explainers” was on tv talking about how terrible this nominee is. The message sounded “canned” and she usually is nothing but talking points anyway. But today I finally had enough and just muted the tv after a I threw out a few choice words of my own.
I started to listen to Schumer just now and nearly lost it. I can’t believe I used to buy into the Democrats and that they are such phonies. I think I was more upset with myself than with Schumer. I was stupid enough at one time to think the D party actually cared. I don’t trust the R’s either.
👍
I was always an Independent but I voted almost completely Democrat. Now I vote almost completely Republican but I am still an Independent. I despise the GOPe and the Democrats equally too.
Always an independent as well always try to vote a mixed ticket. Here in swampland that has never been an easy task as the candidates for the Ds have been leaning left further and further each year to the point that parts of Maryland are likely to tip over into the ocean long before Guam and the Rs are few and far between and many of them are Ds (and Gs) just dressed up as Rs and both sides just have had some real fruitcakes.
Get some popcorn ready, the NATO summit is going to be exciting to watch. Donald Tusk vs. Donald Trump.

I can just imagine Trump’s response to Tusk’s quip “Dear America, appreciate your allies, after all you don’t have that many!” I think is goes something like “We’re America, bitch!”
That’s fine as long as it is immediately followed by “Pay up, bitches”, or ” No more free rides, bitches”.

😀 What about uncured bacon?
Drs say all kinds of shit that isn’t true.
My guess is that ~80% of published Medical “research” is to varying degrees, bullshit. The spectrum of bullshit going from paid fraud, (ie. Autism/vaccine) to academic fraud to poor science to just another “me too” study published for purposes of promotion. I have personally seen pretty much the whole spectrum.
I’ve been around long enough to know that if one study says it’s bad for you, another one will come along to say it’s good for you. 😀
It also depends on who is paying for the study.
I spent enough time (as a cluesless lib) in the animal rights trenches to remember the connections between “studies” and the Corporations who funded/wrote them. Maybe the ARA’s weren’t whackadoodles afterall ?
Before you decide to eat any more bacon, please research the conditions under which the pig is held and kept before slaughter. I have no problem eating meat. I eat meat. But pig farming in many cases uses unforgivable methods. They inflict unspeakable torture on these highly intelligent creatures. If we don’t use our wallets to insist on humane treatment of food animals, then we are accessories to indefensible actions.
Yeah, I’m almost there about not eating pork.

The close up photo of Melania’s foot and toes in the Louboutin pumps is painful to look at. She looks stunning wearing anything; how about starting a new trend with flats or Kittens.
She’s not used to wearing flats and kittens, and they hurt her feet. She learned how to walk in stilettos when she was a baby.

Well I want you all to know that I am deeply disappointed. Governor Cauliflower of Virginia promised there would be dead bodies strewn every which way today and I saw nary a one on my 25 mile long morning commute from Mary-land to Virgin-ia. Not even a sad zombie.
But do not be discouraged. The swamp has heard the call of the unicorns. Asas with the revolt against those plastic bags that were stalking innocents along the Potomac, and following in the footsteps of their poo infested brethren in CA, the District of Columbia has decided to take on those horrid hordes of slurping sticks also know as straws. Yes, with random drive by shootings and knife attacks increasing, a metro rail system that is barely functioning and kids who graduate high school with honors but cannot read a simple sentence, it is clear that such minor problems must be swept aside while they tackle the malevolence lurking in the city’s eateries.
Great field report 😀
Great reporting, Mt. Laurel! No bodies here either, but I got word from reliable sources that the Progressive Zombie Apocalypse is going to jump off any day now and will last til summer recess is over.
Whoa !
I saw this last night. A couple not so one sided political sites have said it was a very smart and expected pick because Kavanaugh approach is to respect the Rule of Law and the Constitution. Good for getting the SCOTUS back on track and away from trying to legislate from the bench, which is a priority for PDJT . And it sets up to make those who oppose look even more off their rockers as they will be arguing against sound and rational decision making.
Word.
Kavanaugh is GOPe approved and has connections to the Bush clan. By picking him Trump ensured that there would be no opposition from the right. All they have to do is bring in McCain’s corpse to cast a “yes” vote and they won’t even need Pence to break a tie.
I assumed that is what they inferred since they started with GWs support being a signal. More along the lines of at this point in time this is a smart move. I think they were giving PT kudos for going this direction now as he is likely to have another chance or two for SCOTUS nominations and may indeed wind up with a better chance at going with a harder sell pick after the election.
