Every one of these anecdotes gives me hope!

Hope for an improved House and Senate by this time next year!

Hey, I haven't come up with a single kid, including my own, who weren't

at least concerned or unsettled, by a darkened bedroom. That’s why we always - ALWAYS - had night lights on at night. If for NO other reason than making it easy to find one’s way to the bathroom. Still do, to this day. My husband likes it that way, too.

Shine a light! It’s good for the morale!

Yes indeed. That's the way they "keep their ducks in a row".

Make sure everybody's coordinated on what they're supposed to say! Especially when they have to talk to the media!

I do believe so. Surgical "enhancement".

The only problem with this kind of thing is - once you get started, you damn well BETTER NOT quit. You have to keep tweaking, even after it can't be called mere "tweaking" anymore.

Nobody who thinks they're somebody wants to just get old and look the part.

He asked the wrong questions.

SHE wanted him to focus on her meticulously-applied makeup. AND those surgically-enhanced lips.

Rep. Goldman wasn't asking a single question about THAT... Waaaaaaah... All fancied-up and nobody cared...

Please let us know how you're doing, my friend.

We're all going to want to stay updated. So we can travel this bumpy road with you.

VERY clearly.

I just looked at it again. He must do his own makeup. Doesn’t see the ears or the outer edges of his face.

You’re not fooling ANYBODY, donald, except those who want to be fooled.

What's all that baggage under his chin?

And is that hair on his head, or a hat?

Looks like he’s just waking up from another visit to Sneak-a-Nap.

Good!

Still too high, though.

About calimary

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.
