I say YES. YOU say NO....Numero Tre! Enjoy!

This is what makes it so bad for people like Barrett to be on the Court. I did read in passing where the last three actually getting seated lied in their confirmation hearings and should be impeached for it. Sadly, the other side is so far gone they will WELCOME the opportunity to let all three off the hook so we are stuck with them. We can put more on the court later I hope so as to be able to nullify their ability to foist off on all of us their backward agenda's.

There is so much that needs changing now -- but first we have to keep the other side from winning these next elections and we need to seat enough from our side to keep the right from stopping what we know the people want to see. We need to change things asap.

Minus -- I'll try to find it.

Something to do with security is why no pics. Have 0 reason to believe anything from these people.except to send them $$. Sounds like Cheeto.

exbrnxgrl, I wonder too why we go along w/o seeing anything nor hearing either. If we get on here one day and it is all changed -- well, it's truly going to be an amazing surprise, but I'm worried this is about going to be it. Like many, I've tried not to complain too much to the mods over ANYTHING. I don't know how much input they may be able to share, but I'm pretty sure someone much farther up the chain gets the real say-so. I think they end up having to follow rules and orders that come from somewhere above them. I think it would be highly un-pleasant to deal with the amts. of people who once used this site because it was a lot of people wanting, I'm sure a lot of different things -- still, it did seem to function at that time ? easier, better, faster -- not sure which one applies and where it fits in the line.

It is hard to imagine that THIS was supposed to be better. I have some hope but even I, with it usually hard to take away my hope, feel like it is getting thinner and thinner. At the least it sure would be nice to have gotten some "updates" along the way as we wait.

Ruth, when I want to put something ( meme or quote here ) I find it, hit copy to paste it, bring it back here and then hit v for view and it hops onto the page. I do not use the box in the line on top of this space -- where the bold and italic buttons are. I don't know -- maybe that is the difference, but only a guess.

We are still on the abortion topic/s pretty much as we have been since the LEAK. I did read -- the Reps. hate the leak since they are poised to use the SC for all the dastardly deeds they wish to accomplish and whomever leaked has made that fairly transparent. I do hope this will indeed energize us to the max although I'm not hearing the media reference that other than in passing. They seem more inclined to want to speak about energy from the other side.

Un-fortunately, we cannot trust the news outlets who are vying for their viewership/readership. We are not going to be out of the woods by any stretch, but I'm thinking we are a bit better than the polls or media wish to report at present. What we have most learned lately -- the Reps are as down and dirty as ever to the point of evilness, and our message needs to be a lot louder and stronger, and we cannot give any faith to the SC which is ready to do all the extreme right wants. Even when you know it doesn't quite work as well as it should -- it is still a real shock to see an institution dissolve before your very eyes. Hopes, faith, trust, solidness, pretty much destroyed. This is what the Reps. don't want out of the bag so very transparently. It will make it a lot harder for them -- and people will likely keep the pressure on a lot stronger and longer. We can only hope that we keep the branches of government we have and even expand -- since we are stopped right now from what is needed for a strong democracy.

I'm giving up posting memes & pictures. Here's a few articles & a video to share.

Irony from Clarence Thomas

Read both your entries, cardplayer. Kavanaugh is a sniveling, spineless crybaby. As for Clarence Thomas....he certainly doesn't engage in serious thought before he starts making his holier than thou statements. Of course, I'm of the mind that he was a 'court' mistake just like Kavanaugh, Gorsuch and Barrett, only years earlier -- so truth telling, I never expect much from him as it will generally be flawed. Of course, the people mentioned, especially the last three were for the expedience of the Republicans and their agenda and nothing else.

I doubt those people give it much thought or indeed have any conscience about it, but I would hate the thought of why I GOT my court seat, every day I was there. They haven't the sense to feel illegitimate but they are just the same. I would definitely feel like an interloper not quite belonging. I'm sure they are proud. I think it just sad that power, greed, fame or any number of ill gotten reasons should make them ill at ease to the nth. degree but to their bad credit they don't even notice. Shameless and spineless -- taking something offered completely and VERY un-deserved.

Chisandy,

Not to mention, when a woman is 4-6 weeks pregnant she's actually 2-4 weeks pregnant, since the countdown starts at the date of the last period. Such nonsense.

Even the good book seems to indicate that life doesn't actually begin until the first breath OUTSIDE the body. I agree totally Sandy, about the electrical impulses NOT being actual heartbeats. Many forget -- judge not, lest you be judged. Some parts of life are easy to forget, but they are still there

I'm starting to wonder if someone will actually cave a bit and just how much. I do think whoever leaked wanted to give the other side a heads up to be prepared for the long haul. No one wants to be seen as giving in but you certainly have got to notice how intense the backlash is going to be. Just going to be interesting.
