11224. judithathome - 7/19/2013 6:56:18 PM Very moving and thoughtful speech just now by President Obama. 11225. judithathome - 7/20/2013 12:19:42 AM Good article with excerpts of President Obama's remarks: Article 11226. arkymalarky - 7/21/2013 8:35:42 PM Wow. Keith Olbermann and Nate Silver are both going to ESPN. 11227. arkymalarky - 7/21/2013 8:36:17 PM John McCain gave Obama props. Good on him. 11228. judithathome - 7/21/2013 11:34:47 PM Didn't Olbermann start there? 11229. arkymalarky - 7/22/2013 12:12:41 AM I think so. But he was at Fox st some point I think. He's really been around. 11230. judithathome - 7/22/2013 8:34:09 PM It's a baby boy for the Royals!! 11231. robertjayb - 7/23/2013 7:17:34 AM Any doubt a grand jury will no-bill this woman?
Houston police said the woman was pumping gas when a man approached her and made sexual advances toward her. The woman told the man to go away, but the man continued to harass her.
Then the man walked toward her and pulled out a knife. Fearing for her safety, the woman grabbed a rifle from her car and shot him. He died at the scene. 11232. judithathome - 7/24/2013 1:56:41 AM On National Hot Dog day....no, I am not making this up...Anthony Weiner drags his wife out in front of reporters to make excuses ONCE AGAIN for photos surfacing ONCE AGAIN of his...hot dog.
The Man Who Won't Be Mayor Of NYC 11233. judithathome - 7/27/2013 1:12:45 AM VonK or anyone who knows about trials: the juror who is all over TV today saying Zimmerman got away with murder...if she had held out in the belief at trial that he was guilty and it had come down to a hung jury, could Zimmerman have been tied again? Or would double jeopardy apply? 11234. vonKreedon - 7/27/2013 2:06:15 AM The crucial point that the juror made, IMO, wasn't that she felt he had committed murder, but that, given the law and the evidence presented, find Zimmerman guilty. I believe Zimmerman's lawyer called her the perfect juror and I'd take that as a compliment. 11235. vonKreedon - 7/27/2013 2:06:39 AM ...she couldn't find... 11236. judithathome - 7/28/2013 8:19:06 PM I'm so sick of the Anthony Wiener scandal...the real scandal is how much time is being devoted to it.
The man has an illness...he craves attention and will obviously go to any extreme to get it. If he had flashed women on the street while wearing a raincoat, he'd have been arrested. He needs to go into therapy and find out why having money, a career, a beautiful family is not enough for him.
Thus far in his mayoral race, I have heard not one thing on what he plans to do if he gets the job. He was a below-lackluster Congressman and even THAT job was not enough to feed his need for attention...does he even qualify to run the largest city in this country? Does he understand city budgets, city crime prevention, city business and tax code? Has he said ONE thing about his plans for anything in NYC? If so, it certainly hasn't been covered by the press.
Heck, even Jesse Ventura had plans for his state when he ran for governor...he was notorious as a performer but he didn't run on personality alone.
Wiener is actually still flashing for the cameras...he is eating up all this attention. If New Yorkers vote him into office, they are saying just as much about themselves as they are about Wiener. Don't give me this second chance BS...he's had that and more. 11237. thoughtful - 7/29/2013 1:59:18 AM Did you see the cover of the NYT mag? They ran all the candidates with what looks like mug shots...none of them look trustworthy enough to handle a pet rat, let alone run the biggest city in the country. Somehow Weiner fits right in with the rest of them.
11238. Wombat - 7/29/2013 4:10:25 AM Fun with Photoshop? At least it's Weiner's face we're looking at. 11239. iiibbb - 7/29/2013 3:34:43 PM I hope the Asian wins... the rest look like putzes. 11240. judithathome - 7/29/2013 5:58:41 PM Funny that they didn't even put in the picture of the front runner: Christine Quinn. 11241. thoughtful - 7/29/2013 11:56:19 PM She's there...middle row, 2nd column. 11242. judithathome - 7/30/2013 12:26:26 AM Wow...and I just watched a program yesterday about how the brain tricks the eye into seeing things NOT as they are...ha! 11243. arkymalarky - 7/31/2013 5:59:24 AM Put a fork in his campaign. What a joke:
