Gotta check and see if Chichester is in your district. If so, I know one of your constituents. Go, Margaret! Gotta check and see if Chichester is in your district.

And to show you what a classy dame she is, Margaret took time from her busy, whirlwind campaign schedule to help out a young, upstart politician that may actually make something of himself one day. Go to her post and scroll down to 11-04-08. Congratulations, Margaret!

A very dear lady friend (in this case a person of whom the wingnuts do not approve) has adopted and is giving a wonderful home to a young brother and sister of Guatemalan and Brazilian descent. She has had them now for three years, and they are the delights of her life, and wonderful kids to boot. Her mother was alive and living in her home, and filled the "back up" role when she adopted as a single mom with a terrific record as a foster mother. She was herself placed as a foster child and then adopted, so she dedicated her post-party hearty (but still party) life to passing on what was done for her. Single moms can and do get it done, and done well, when they enter the task as intentional adoptive parents. Every reason to suspect you will be one superb adoptive mom. Maybe your young 'un can fill out the future presidential team with either Adam's or Susie's or B&B's young 'un. Just sayin'. Don't be afraid to be guided by your best judgment in whom you adopt. It has to work well both ways. Go, Dale!

And Jake, thanks for reinforcing my lifelong terror of turning into the crazy, childless, cat lady. You were the straw that made me sign up for the first adoption agency meeting.

It caused quite a buzz on the internets, as I recall. From today's speech at the USS Interpid rededication ceremony: <blockquote>Arnold Fisher and the Fisher family -- what a <strong>fabulous </strong> contribution the Fishers have made to the United States of America, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.</blockquote> And again, not a minute later in the speech: <blockquote>The truth of the matter is, I will miss being the Commander-in-Chief of such a <strong>fabulous </strong> group of men and women -- those who wear the uniform of the United States military.</blockquote> So, what do we think here? Bush finally coming out? A brief injection of honesty to help balance out his legacy of failure?

From today’s speech at the USS Interpid rededication ceremony:

Arnold Fisher and the Fisher family — what a fabulous contribution the Fishers have made to the United States of America, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

And again, not a minute later in the speech:

The truth of the matter is, I will miss being the Commander-in-Chief of such a fabulous group of men and women — those who wear the uniform of the United States military.

So, what do we think here? Bush finally coming out? A brief injection of honesty to help balance out his legacy of failure?
