Lindsay Graham said today, “There comes a time when love of country trumps hatred of Hillary.” More Republicans are going to start echoing this sentiment. The idiots who say “if it’s not Bernie, I just won’t vote” probably weren’t going to bother voting anyway.

I miss the Michelle: Uncensored days, pre-White House. When Barry won the election for US Senate, she said something like, “Now we’ll need a bigger house, to make more room for his ego.” She had some great one-liners (also a pretty great natural ‘do). They kind of muzzled her once he was campaigning for President.

Warren’s current job is so much more important than being the president’s sidekick.

As amazing as she is, and as great as her future in politics could be, I think she might be happy to get back to her own career away from being a public servant.

Innovation in topiary - sweet! As a blonde, I don’t grow enough hair and it’s too soft and fine, but my gf in college was hirsute enough for both of us and she could trim into jet black animal shapes, like the garden in “The Shining”.

Harissa is dee-lisha! We went to Tunisia in the ‘90s because we were invited to work on an archaeological dig at Carthage. No experience in archaeology, it just sounded like fun.

I know you’re a fart person, and I enjoy your contributions to the jez commentariat.

I understand what you meant, I know you weren’t criticizing Obama. I agree with everything you’ve said, I just thought you might not be old enough to remember what was going on in politics in 2007/8. I meet a lot of millennials and younger in my work, so I’m used to being the old spinster who explains how things…

You’re probably too young to remember (and I don’t mean that as a diss), but super pacs didn’t exist in the 2008 campaign. After the CU ruling in 2010, it seemed like a campaign needed to take as much money as they could, especially since Obama was running a tight race against the backlash from angry white neo-cons.

The other day on CNN, Erin Burnett was in Dubai talking to an owner of high-end hotels there about Donald. He said Tweetin’ Donald tried to get him to pay for Trump branding of his properties, and he laughed when said that he turned the Cheeto down because in the Middle East, the name Donald = Donald Duck. He said the…

I miss Ari Shapiro’s press conferences! WH Press Secretary is a daunting job for anyone, but he had to explain a war that defied explanation every damn day and he twisted positive spin onto questions meant to criticize George W., all the while smirking to let you know that he didn’t really buy this crap either. I…

The joys of learning a foreign culture! I’ve lived in a handful of places, and Muslim culture offered my friends and me the most opportunities for embarrassment and confusion, by far! The Arabic language is amazing, almost like music - they speak and write like no one else on earth, and they know it. I was in Tunisia,…

I’ve heard concha - I like that one, too! Where I am, queen conchs wash up on the beach and they are so beautiful with their bright pink insides. And I remember taco from the Mexican neighborhood I grew up in, but like you said it was a nasty term only heard once in a while from some gross little boy trying to offend.…

I’ve only had “problems” (for lack of a better word) when she has a prodigious bush. Most of us trim it into a topiary these days or wax it off so not really an issue like it was in the good ol’ days.

The snorkel is clever, as one can have one’s breathing obstructed by a lady’s topiary, but it’s too silly to actually wear unless it’s part of some fetish costume (anyone remember the SCUBA gear line Woody Allen says to Mariel Hemingway in “Manhattan”?) But I think “coral reef” is cute. My favorite vag euphemism comes…

Lol But he was so cute! My mom joked that he bucked because I kicked him in the balls (without saying “balls” bc she’s a Lady), but on days when I have horrible neck pain I sometimes think, Damn you, Cochise you short little bastard!

Oh hell yes I am! His taste for buying 15 year old girls actually brought me to where I am today, helping those same girls leave their pimps and start to heal. My dogs help with that. (My ex is terrified of all dogs. 🙂)

Amber is in for a long, hard journey. My ex-husband isn’t famous, but no one wanted to believe he was abusive and buying underage girls because he’s an MD. Even though he told me exactly how he planned to kill me, a judge denied me a restraining order because “He’s a doctor!”

I started riding lessons on a Shetland at 5. He bucked me right over his head and I landed on my head/neck, which has resulted in a lifetime of arthritis (at 26 a radiologist told me my cervical MRI looked like a woman in her 70's), but my teacher made me get back on & finish the lesson. I was learning to canter &…

He sounds amazing. You're lucky.
