About Me

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.

I thought she was terrific!

Welcome to DU, Prof.Higgins!

Heck, MSNBC actually has one of those stenographers ON STAFF. The smug, insufferable Hugh Hewitt. I hit the mute button as often when he's on as I do when trump is on.

The funniest part about all the complaining and whining against the job Michelle Wolf did

was the irony. They thought she was vulgar? TRUMP SUPPORTERS thought SHE was vulgar? Sheesh - what planet am I on?

If they've got their panties in a bunch about HER "vulgarity," and yet they stand by, and vigorously defend, the "grab 'em by the pussy" guy, then they're full of shit - by definition.

I did, too. She wasn't any more pungent than Colbert was. Maybe there's a little sexism going on?

Sometimes it was hard to say which was funnier - her jokes or the reaction shots of Kellyanne CONway and Sarah HB. Hey, if you don't want to be made fun of as a non-stop congenital liar in public, then all you really have to do is simply STOP LYING ALL THE TIME!!! I have very little sympathy for self-inflicted wounds.

Doesn't sound like much of a bad thing to me.

Sounds like the salvation of this country. Sounds like the sweet notes of justice served - and richly deserved.

I want him IMPEACHED and REMOVED. And then compelled to face the full force of the law.

What kept flashing through my mind was - if you don't want to be called a liar

repeatedly, in public, and you don't want to be ridiculed mercilessly for doing so, then just STOP LYING ALL THE TIME!!!

I loved their sour expressions. You made this bed, girlfriends. Or as the GOP relentlessly sloganeered during a past convention, "you built this."

Hey, if Nikki Haley tries it, then that means I get to use that stupid cliche

that Hillary haters loved to use (okay, everybody! All together now...)

"Oh, I want a woman president. Just not THAT woman." Although in Nikki Haley's case, I'd be saying it and meaning it.

Welcome to DU, Rustynaerduwell!

He still doesn't get that this is NOT the same free-wheeling, mob-like, anything goes, nobody's accountable, and you can get your henchmen to do your dirty work for you so you have "plausible deniability." That might work in the high-stakes high-roller slick-talking con job world of bigtime real estate. It DOESN'T work, for anyone with any grip on reality.

I thought it was a turkey neck too!

As befitting one of the biggest turkeys in DC.

Love you, Joy! You are still the best interviewer on television!
