The PROGRESSIVE SCHOOL OF PUSH-BACK

Ladies' Luncheon "Look Out Loretta!"  We've all attended them: the social gathering of girls who hate each other and need to purge those negative energies. 

We've gotta stay pretty, Coach. 

OK, we showed some ugly face when the O Brats gave us lip on the campaign trail.  My son would NEVER address me with such impudence, and I don't know about how the rest of you raised your children, but both mine are under control.  (at a price, I assure you we just don't get together until we get back to pretty)  It's the sons of the others of you I need to call out.   How could they be so separated from their home energies that they could doubt the essential goodness of this society.  Instead, they want to just toss it out with the old folks and start all over with something that makes it easy for them to succeed.  Are they discovering that a win at the expense of the rest is not a win"   ....Is not a winning way? 

So the Ladies gather to recognize the Courage of those who faced and fared strong in behalf of what was right.  Showing uncharacteristic Grace, Michelle Obama greets the group with acquired respect for the better way.  Be nice to the old girls: they've got "Push Back" you won't see coming til it knocks you off your pedestal.   Defense is a constantly layering project.  Never rest: never take any defender lightly.  Kids.  Women, geeks and other Americans of standing participate in the game.  As a free country, we let all comers in at some level, but our survival instincts condition us to structure access to our true powers.  Navigating the Paths to Power is a game of Tickle Bee.  Your bug moves along the corridors of the maze guided by your magnetic leverage.  In the "game" which is truly a Board Game for the Bored, ages 3 and up, you hold a WAND tipped with a magnet.  You play along with a screen that poses as the Scene, but is really designed to conceal the true paths.  Here we see flowers, streams and walkways painted on the screen.  Try to take your "Beta Unit" along that path, however: and you get Stung!  Remember "The Sting," the Redford-Newman fun fest set to Joplin Rag Time?  One Sting is never enough.  The venom pumps.  The predator repeats the attack like an electrocutioner, until the circuit is broken.  The Prey is held captive.  Thus the Alpha Unit, Massa, turns 50 and burns learning - taught the maze through painful, expensive experience.  The pain is shared through the magnet in a fashion not unlike the sensation in the wii control when your Mario dies falling off the path.  The creators of the GAME call it tickle, but we know it to be the complete take-over of Choice, sprinkled with some MOB Justice and a lot of pain for everybody connected in the TAKE DOWN.  Thus is the programming world of Defense. 

Ben Roethlesberger is OFFENSE.                                                          Dick LaBeau is an OLD Player.  Trench Warfare-wisened Hall of Famer from his playing days, silver and "Honolulu" Blue,  44's Defensive Schemes have inspired NFL and ESPN alike.  "Tickle the Old Guy if you can." say the Linemen.  In this game, there's a game you BELIEVE you're playing, a game in which you get caught, shot and plastered all over FaceBook, and a game of Survivor where your alliances can prove to be allied elsewhere at Tribal Council.  Many, many games all going on simultaneously.  What does it take to make it to the House and over the Goal Line and Survive to the end?  FRIENDS.  True, always-there-for-you friends.  People whose personal happiness, security and survival are directly tied to yours.  Success, for friends, is getting through the toughest times together.  Power is what we feel when we shake each others' hands over a Ladies' and Gentleman's agreement.  Oneness with the All, The Grace of the best within us coming together in the interest of making life worth living.  As kids in the 50's, threatened by nuclear extinction, we braced for fall-out in underground shelters.  What actually got us were those pesky asbestos tiles in our ceilings.  Who knew?  

Trust in the hand holding the magnet and live as though the power can be switched onto that magnet at any time.  Detached and seemingly "defeated,"

"Senator Clinton; er, Secretary Clinton...I almost said: "President Clinton :)" admitted Michelle.

  What went unspoken was the recognition of Hillary, a profile in Courage, who let the Push Boys dispose of her in favor of a young Lion touted for his leadership, and went into the maze to experience sting after sting after sting until she knew the ropes.  We of the P.U.M.A. were there with her for every one of them, absorbing and chanelling the pain while evaluating the threat.  We of Goal Line Stand play our super bowl where the action really is: at the luncheon.  We graciously hear our "First" Lady acknowledge our Former First Lady as President.  And that says "Peace."   Who'se really #44?  It's enough to know the Secret of Service to the Country. 

Back in the days when "Ozzie and Harriet" and "Leave it to Beaver" were all the rage, a little bee found its way into the mainstream and took the toy world by storm. Now, the buzz is that the bee is back!

Simple, yet challenging, the object of the game is to maneuver the magnetic bee around the plastic maze until it returns to the honeycomb. Using a magnetic wand, the child (or, adult for that matter) "tickles" the bee ... moving it in any direction. Look out though! If you get too close you might get stung. Get stung 3 times and you're out.

"There is too much partisanship and not enough progress -- too much narrow ideology and not enough practical problem-solving,"   

His heart's just not in it.  And all that party discipline cannot cover up the reality for men of principle.

"...why Democrats are going to keep winning. (Two words: young people.) In short, the Republicans are going to keep getting spanked again and again for forty more years because we're right and they're wrong, and Americans know it."                        wrote James Carville following the 2008 Election. 

To parrot the girls on the blog pages:  ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hee, hee, hee, hee, ho! Ho! Ho! hiccup.  tears in my eyes, and laughing so hard I can only nod and say, "Amen."  That Obama Train full of kids who get out the vote can sure deliver!  Did James remember to put the sign on his bank account before he doled out that advice?  Eek!  And to think we shed even one tear that these political genii so enjoyed their inaugural celebrations. 

Last Laffers Last Long and Love.

PREDATOR

A "layer" in the People Parfait; the Predator is closely attached to the Prey.  Pradators of the Lending Practice Species have consumed the foolish home-buying dreamers.  Until time and interest claimed them, the Predators' hunted were abundant and blind to the true identity of their exploiters.

They were primed by the carefully cultivated "Trust" in House and Senate Banking Committee Chairs, their regulatory agents, in the SEC, in the long-revered houses like Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch:  unable to even process the idea that the contract into which they entered was - by definition - their demise.

...Alway a bigger dawg.  The Predators of the Lending Species, now flush with bonus money, dominate campaign fundraising, spawn natural enemies,   keep up appearances and with the Joneses and hide in Congress. They enter their own version of the Arms Race, matching dares, out-witting the cunning cheats poised to eat them alive for the slightest mistake, surviving - just barely - in a dog-eat-dog, "Trust Nobody" scheme to find fresh turf, virgin voters and property buyers.  We of the PUMA cult warned; the top three recipients of Wall Street Campaign contributions were Christopher Dodd, Barney Frank and Barack H. Obama.  Oh, Oprah, the molested-as-a-child Mogul, opened a school for African Girls and who moves in?  PREDATORS.  She became one of the richest people on earth.  No predation there.  What Woman wouldn't trust such a success purist to pick her President for her?  She of the Trinity United Church of Christ,
http://www.ctlibrary.com/ct/2002/april1/1.38.html 

What the Oprah phenomenon also shows, though, is that this brand of spirituality is ultimately unsatisfying. Perhaps the most telling thing about Oprah's role as a spiritual leader to the seeking masses is that she herself is such an ambitious seeker. Indeed, the smorgasbord of religions and ideas that make up her belief system suggest that she still has not found what she's looking for.

Soon there'll be none left to eat but each other.

Headin' To Gobblers' Knob

Cameras up, Budget Comment...Mr. Progressive
1.  Glares / Bristles at the mention of "Triple the National Debt"
2.  Looks away, then down, nods condescendingly
3.  Shakes his head "no"
4.  Nods in communion to the EGO within
5.  Holds his nose!
6.  Interrupts impatiently to "Just Gotta take this last question as an example..."
7.  "...with all due respect" of how (for HIM) it's very hard to have the kind of bipartisan work that we're gonna do."  

...no ideas and no solutions, in spite of the fact...(interrupt) to correct the questioner about what he didn't think he said, what he said was within the context of healthcare.. "I...I...I...I remember that speech pretty well, it was only two days ago...
"  precisely the kind of detailed legislation that Speaker Pelosi and your Administration have been busy ingoring for twelve months..."Now, hold on ... No, No, No, No ..."

  (background applause for the Republican assertiveness)  We know that we have offered these solutions and yet hear from the Administration that we have offered nothing...again, interrupting .."I'm spinning using this as a specefic example, so, let me answer your question, you asked a question; I want to answer it."

   ... and my question is... "Jim:"  (he interrupts, again,) I know there's a question in there somewhere, cause you're making a whole bunch of assertions, half of which I disagree with."... and I'm having to sit here LISTENING to 'em!....

That has always been the essence of it, really...What? Me Listen? 

You Just Can't Say It Better....WE'RE the Boss, He's just Ross.

Ross Perot: Now, just hold on a second! I've got ears! I'm all ears, and I'm gonna 

listen!

You're the BOSS, and I'm just Ross.
Now, do you like the ears better up?     ...or down?
or just flapping in the wind like a fiddled daisy?
I'm listening.

What do YOU want?

What do you WANT?

Do You want to hear another great speech?

Do You want to hear yet another pundit gush over a great speech? 
Or, maybe, you want to be heard, heeded and -
In a State Of The Union Address -  you want to hear what this Administration HAS DELIVERED while On The CLOCK for a year! 
HERE'S ANOTHER GREAT IDEA BY THE PROGRESSIVE PERSONIFICATION OF PULLIN' THE WOOL: Bring back the Primary Campaign MATH GENIUS, Plouf.  Just returned to the trail after taking some top priority time to write his book of 'Superlatives'
... 
Punch Out, Pauncho.  Bring in some RESULTS we can believe in. 
Enough with the PIVOT, LeBraun wannaa-be...grow up and get in your own game:  there's a shot clock on you... is anybody in there watching it?  Do any Officials know the "delay of game" penalty?  This isn't half-court Recreation League.  This is the Business of the United States of America and it's PEOPLE. There's a Visitor fixin' to SCORE on your bogus bamboozle.  When they force a turnover in YOUR League, how is it they still let you have the ball?   

Gibbs On Fox

So; the Whitehouse discovers the cable news outlet that delivers more viewers than all others combined, ceases to cite Fox News as the enemy of the Annointed One, and participates in the Sunday News interview programs complete cycle for the first time in the year in office....


Not only have they learned nothing from their outrageous manipulation of public opinion with a deliberate slant of the news via their paid pretenders of the Press Corpse, they are defending it.

Wait for it, y'all;  the State of the Union speech will make you forget all about the job you lost, the 401-K in the tank, the incompetence and lack of dot connecting on national security,...proving EVERYTHING they promised is fools' gold.

My Way or the Rocky Mountain High Way

There we were, in conference at 10:00 p.m. on 08-08-08...Olympics Fireworks Opened in China, PUMA's convened in Virginia and John Edwards was "Pants On the Ground" Look'n like a fool. Right after he sank Hillary's battleship.

The OBOTS had all the answers, the judgement, the MATH on their side...so they copped the nomination and "Bought" the election....that was some Historical Inaugural, though, wasn't it?

In one year, the BOYZ go from the Rocky Mountain "High" Way 
to Joe

Way Is better than the way we had (remember the toga party in Denver?  Seems like we had it all then...what happened?)
Spent the last year ... Couldn't get much higher ...  Think it's safe to say:  "Time to open fire..."

And we don't need the ladies ... Crying 'cuz the storie's sad ... Well he's tellin' us this ... And he's tellin' us that ... Changes it every day ... Say's it doesn't matter.    Bases are loaded and Casey's at bat , Playin' it play by play ,  Time to change the batter ...

O; HI! O He noticed you!!!  He's coming to make another speech, just for you.  As always, he's incapable of LISTENING TO YOU!!!

We're letting it land in Florida prior to it going on releif effort mission to Haiti.  That's Beating the Sword Into A Plow Share if I ever saw it.  Well Done, Medved!

Survivor Haiti

Urgent!

  
Calling ALL  Survivor fans, refugees from summer re-runs, and wanna-be's, students of human behavior/ group psychology / team-building and "Other-siders."   We posess, among us, the coaching skills and insight to support the relief effort in the earthquake-ravaged Haiti.  Together, we maintain the memory files of a decade of shuffling, cheering and learning vicariously from the gamers who spent 39 days on the side of the island sealed off from the natives - except for Reward Visits. 

Those of us who tuned in for episodes where sixteen or so contestants were dropped onto a remote island with little more than their instincts, character and wit have seen what winning looks like and how losers lose. Here's a "REALITY" project for younz: The prize isn't a million dollars: the winners are those who actually survive and those who help the dysfunctional, poor island nation deal with the immediate challenges and pull together a working strategic plan from grassroots "contributions" of mind over matter.  Some of us have no phones from which to text our ten dollars: but we can get involved as seasoned planners and project managers to participate in the most important early phases:  Restoring order, establishing shelter and coordinating essential services.

HAJTI

What is it Jeff Probst offers them first?  FIRE.

Or not:  tell me what the priority should be.

Shelter, latrines, nutrition, communication with producers and

... oh, yeah:  the camera crews.  We can share the footage.  Some 24/7 cable shows are going for the tragedy or the "send money" format while others endeavor to preserve balance with something for those who are just unable to watch more than a few moments of the heartbreaking footage.  Our instincts are to help, but how?  Some care deeply, yet face their own crises and can only lend a contemplative heart.  Challenges for those who've lost or can not yet connect with loved ones bring focus from around the world. 

For once: the mission is Peace Through Connectivity:  Some of us are touched instantly.  We become the first responders with our Prayers, Faith and Spiritual Networking.  Together we can sustain the despairing, comfort the suffering, assist the searching, and reassure the panicking.

Let your Survival Instincts kick in.  What comes first?  Shuffle into teams.   +  Each of you carries a thread of connectivity to all of mankind +  Those of you who only know "Man Unkind" might suspend the rules of your game for the moment and psychically trade places with rescue workers, logistic servers and recovery operators.  Your underwold familiarities are an asset in this endeavor, as you are readily equipped to think like Machiavellians inclined to exploit  the unfortunate.  Kieth Olbermann, going for the ratings with a judgemental take on the competition's coverage is neither helpful nor demonstrative of your superior view.  We're all here to help: whatever that takes.  Leave your self-interest at the gate:  There are no losers.  Win Winners Only.  Bring it all to the table and arrive there at your best pace.  The Chutes are set up to direct traffic in an orderly fashion to prevent bottle-necking or impede the distribution of aid.  Finish Line people, Human Directionals, Security, Check Point People, SAG units, ... the idea here is not to DIVIDE into teams, but - rather - to magnetize into balance-evolving platforms that function at the amoeba level.  Be what is needed, interface senses.  Adapt, Invent.  NASA tight inventory of what has survived the quake

Vulcans:  control emotions.  Process and redistribute.  Do no harm.  Preserve Balance.  On Deck:  NFL Kickers, Special Teams Players and Coaches.  Your Special Services are in demand.  Those of you who can give up your Green Beret, Medal of Honor, Patches, Stripes or Lapel Pins, please see the Coordinator of Volunteers Recognition.  Scribes:  access Notation Programs as available.  Record Contributions via Scanners.  As your replacements are sent in; imprint / implant ID Bar Codes.  Maintenance:   Stay on that Finish Line Job...Keep Moving...Those of you who require megaphones, see the Sulahi woman in that magnificent dress.  She's in charge of Speakers.  For the players who are adelpt at eye contact or listening for signals of life: please join the dogs in the ear pen.  We can asess your tune perception and assign you accordingly......9 Wands

Bear with me, one moment, please:

Hollywood is requesting that I change channels for a break-in.
http://www.angelpaths.com/wands/wands9.html

 They bring re-inforcements. 

Nobody special.  Celebrity Watchers: tune into MSNBC for the glamor coverage.  We need this channel for The Factor's Auditors.  Thanks for yielding.  You'll be re-assigned as soon as you can be sorted into your pods.  Circles of Contributors are filling pretty quickly, but we could use fresh hands and hearts to inventory what's on the ground and make separate segments for anything that might be recycled for deployment as shelter or morgue.

Thank you ALL for responding.  Experience has taught me that you will naturally coalesce into functional units with the joint mission to protect and perform as needed.  Please alternate with your replacements as you are contacted.  We'll smooth out the batan-pass as we get up to speed.

Thought you'd like to know this piece of baseball history. This is profound.
A LITTLE KNOWN BASEBALL FACT:
The first testicular guard (Cup) was used in baseball in 1874 and the first helmet was used in 1934..

It took 60 years for men to realize that the brain is also important.

Are They All Just Pumped Up On Viagra?

Rush Limbo and all the Pelosi People out in Hawaii.....hey, I think I know what's gotten those Iraqi and Nigerian trainees so strung out...that sales pitch they give them about the 21 Virgins awaiting them in heaven... the vacation in paradise at the taxpayers' expense "covered" by the Journalist/ Voice of the Republican Party... Um, Limbaugh's "date" was getting her nails done at the spa when he called (check out aol.'s articles of today, January 7, 2010) me thinks that warn't no heart attack Rushin him to 911 but rather an erection lasting more than four hours... Arnie, "the Pumped Up" want's Nebraska's Health Care Deal, ...O's hand on Michelle's backside ascending the stairs to AF-1 truncating the vacation,... could we persuade Pfizer to spread the wealth any further? Oh, and remember, women who are pregnant (already) should not take or even handle the little blue diamond.

There's a difference between Insurance and Business

Medicine isn't Business.

Senate $ in a pile

The boyz in the Senate no longer benefit from the presence of Hillary Clinton.  Today, with a mere eight days remaining in 2009, they shoot the coop; AWOL Jim Bunning, (R) Kentucky, goes home for the Holidays to be with his family.  Major League.  When this card, symbolizing Family Connections, is inverted, EYE SEE the sheepish grin of a chicken shit loser who sells out his own mother for a worldly gain.  Walter - 1st spouse - always gave me that face when he broke a promise to me and expected me to just take it in stride.  Trust.  Integrity.  Selfish prick.  Kentucky is all about this vibe...sell it.  Get yours before anybody else, then forget you owe them.
                                                                                                                                 

That's a track we needn't go 'round again.  It's Christmas Eve.  Medicare Advantages.  Physician Owned health care insurance.   Citibank repays bail-out, bonuses its Boyz... see the Cheshire grin, Alice?      He don't mean nothin' disrespectful, ...  He knows EWE.

Good Game

Vogue V. SNL

Still cracking up over the SNL skits - Press Conference in China / 2012.  We're feeling like Pennsylvanians driving our cars up our hills after first rocking them out of the snow drifts.  (It's coming, Oh, Yeah.)  What began as a movement for Womens' Rights has finally levelled onto the plane of balanced forward momentum.  Women's exercises for the strength and flexibility to carry themselves with the poise, dignity and confidance those rights empower.  You can't "hide your stuff."  When you haven't got it, the handicappers see it.

A nice balance is - as I learned on my skates - a force in itself.  After weeks of getting out there and try, try, trying to stay up on them, my reward was crossing the threshhold of the "Limelight" on Piedmont and feeling my spine flex to hold me upright when a momentary mis-step almost levelled me. 

Ah! Epiphany.  The

...of Madonna Mixes for extended aerobic effort and learning the pacing and endurance required to develop my skills.  I had arrived at the first plateau of the infinite upward hill climb.  Onward, Ever!

Days later, crossing Piedmont Park enroute to the Skate Escape, a slight waver of my center of balance wreaked a sideways sway that, again, snapped me into upright and then ....  whoosh!  I was moving forward effortlessly at the next speed.  It was a "gear" dropped by angels into my backbone and I went from Ice Cream Truck Driver (If you can't find 'em; grind 'em.) to Sally Ride smoothly maneuvering a space craft.

Getting enough of us up to speed eventually - and inevitably - forces us forward via sheer know how.  Read the history of American Patents and see for yourself how many of our greatest inventions were processed through the unique working system of female inventors.  They don't call "Necessity" MOTHER without respect.  Those of us attending the birth of women into gender equity can take a long view 3 Wands

Each of us is an unique, multi-level processing system through whom the divinity within expresses our best.  Take a moment for yourself and 4 Swords redistribute the competing forces.  Celebrate Thanksgiving with those you love.   As you give thanks for all your blessings, remember your Sisters, especially the Burka-Wearing Middle Eastern ones, who are penetrating the mystique in their own special systematic way.  Page (Daughter) of Pentacles

Hagall spread  as chosen via ISIS Significant, and the Three Fates Simplified by the Magician ...  Look at that center card long enough 10 Cups, Reversed and you'll see what Castaneda teaches us to see in the UN:  the adult's heads are EYES and the bowed cup array is a sheepish grin.  They COULD have been gentlemen and shown us their class....instead they chose to slide and expected us not to notice.  What's special about women?

Daughters / Doubters

Next week when President Obama is in China he’s going to hold a “town-hall” meeting with Chinese citizens. Their first question for Obama is expected to be, “Why would anyone have two daughters?”

...   and feigning disinterest.  Boring as per Carol and CNN... as always, mean girls doing what they do.  Hootie, Tootie, (with the lib-elite accent) "13 of 400 some pages devoted to substance."  The women thing and those of us who related to Hillary recognize it:  that second "X" in the DNA having a girls' night.  Do you preserve your dignity, or do you "blend?"  WASP-reared Obama is so much more their speed.

But it's votes, friends.  The Quakers call their wives "Daughter." and embrace all aspects of the Male/Female relationship.  Cultural.  OK, they don't get Alaskans.  They probably don't hunt (except Karen Hughes & Company ridiculing John Kerry resplendent in Mossy Oak) and they certainly don't "CAMP" as do more Americans than all spectator sports combined.  

Let them.  Oprah and company focus on the "Dallas" stuff: fashion, money, jealousy-driven crime... Charlie's Angels stars blew a gasket when Farrah showed up in designer-fitting jeans while they were wearing 'wardrobe' so.... "Who's prettier:  Vanity or Aphrodite?"  Prince fans will remember the competition for "The Artist's" libido...and the radio rock jocks came clean:  "What IS this?  The guy's five feet tall and he's getting laid right and left?  And the women are lining up?

And Gayle.  Oprah, thanks for treating her like another girl,  Barbara: bring on the View.

Still Crackin' Up Over This One

Oops! My Bad...Chicken WASTE. (Thank you Terry McAuliff, for your dignified style)

The Baseball fan in me over-took the political reflector, briefly.  But this morning's MoJo revisited "Gov. Terry" and his campaign innovation centered on turning the polution that ravages the Chesapeak into the fuel to power the light in Virginia homes. .  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D14s42rL4UM&

On the same segment, Mika lent a woman's voice of support to Savannah Guthrie for stepping up during her one-on-one interview by calling out the President on his basketball game / networking opportunity with a Boys' Only Night at the White House.  In the words of ObaMAO's Foreign Policy advisor's daughter, The Campaign staff was invited to play B-Ball with the MSNBC morning crew - and inasmuch as THAT game has yet to hit the court, Brzynski concludes:  "They're Scared."

It's that Beat the Girl thing...and we are getting another whiff of Chicago Street Thug style of how the President's MEN "play the game." 

1. WE Won, WE'LL Call the tune.
2. Women, as we demonstrated in the Primaries and post VP announcement, just can't play.
3. Don't be lookin' for Gentlemen around here.  We're Professional GUYS.
4. Pay Attention, XX's: we'll let you suggest the rules, but look out for the FOWLERS...we have every intention of playing our strengths - cutting you out prior to the National Anthem - whatever it takes.  Expect the males of this country to join ranks.  On this matter; we are fearless, because we'll bet the White House that women WON'T.

The Boys of Fannie Mae, Goldman Sachs, the inner city... SOME women in this country legitimately FIND WAYS to survive financially.  They trace their paper, monitor accounts and find creeps like Charlie Rangle and OMG! John Edwards, hiding out in the macho.

Arrogance & Cozy.  The late Anna Nichole Smith said it best:  "Freakin' Genius."  about a jerk who proceeded to step on a Grammy Winner's acceptance.  Class.  The "Women's Nation" series on the Morning Joe show takes a drawlin' view of the Shriver Report.  ... when the discussion doesn't degenerate into a man's joke, I'll view the clips. 

Expect the hit.  Prepare to field it.  Don't look for sisters to defend you.  My experience has taught me that the Gay Men will be there for you first.  Only in the prospect of being thus shown up, will the Guys get it. 

Boys Club

... really means the instrument by which the beat-down is issued. WHO'S the Barracuda? Tip Off...Let Women on the White House Basketball court and Rogue gets her shot. I'll sell tickets, advertising and T Shirts. C'mon. http://sarahbarracuda.com/

Wiki Pootie says she 'earned her nickname for her competitive streak' and in the next sentence, notes she went to college to major in communications and become a sportscaster.  Again, experience competing straight up with men teaches things you won't learn in the typing pool.  Word to yer sista;  let a winner show you how to beat these guys ... or is that what yer scaird of?
November 16: Oprah entertains the Author of "Going Rogue" and the EYES of Womankind will be scrutinizing how the South Carolina Swing follows up chin music with "Sorry, Charlie." Oprah and Sarah can, maybe, run together before the show (does Oprah still run?) and size each other up...(I think I just 'got" what that expression really means!)

Sisters: He EARNED It!

Woke up Friday morning and the TV was replaying the previous evening's O'Reilly Factor on Fox. Bill-O had queued up the story of what BO the pup did on AF-1. I was just "waking up" when Brian Kilmead of Fox & Friends broke in a few minutes early to announce that President Obama had been awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace.




The universal response, - it became evident almost immediately, - was:

"For WHAT?"



I had to get up and crank the coffee, grab the remote and check in with Morning Joe to get the View from the Cheerleaders. Scarboro and Mark Halpern were comparing it to Marissa Tomei winning the Oscar for My Cousin Vinnie. Joe made the point that Tomei had done far more to earn the Oscar, guaranteed.



I looked up the design of the prize and can attest, for the doubters, that President Obama did, indeed, win the Peace Prize as it was intended by Alfred Nobel.



DLS commented over at the Moderate Voice, "...As to the American people, as I've written, this Prize was mis-directed; given the actual timing of the decision, the American Voter should be the recipient, for voting a black American into the Presidency (the relevent question to the feminists now being, Would the award be given if Hillary Clinton has been elected, instead, or is Obama personality cult and idolatry too much in effect here, too?). As I also have written, it's still not too late for Time Lite to select the US Voter as "Person of the Year" to properly honor him and her."



(Especially those of us who saw our votes dismissed in June, 2008.) The really important contribution made by Barack Hussein Obama, is to let men all over the world sleep nights for keeping the uppity women out of the Oval one more time.

The reverse shows three naked men embracing one another - a symbol of the international fraternization that Nobel wished to contribute to through the Peace Prize.

Maybe the "brothers" took the brotherhood thing too literally, or maybe the sisters have just found another speedbump on the road to the Whitehouse. I'm nothing if not a good sport, and the "Winner" in me responded the way I'd like to be received if such a prize were "handed to me." OK, is this their way of telling us: "Be Careful What You Wish For?" Life teaches us all that it is real Challenge, Adversity and Proving Ourselves that brings out the greatness in each of us. He'll need our support if he's going to do us proud after this. Funny, all the calls for School Kids and bold progressives to 'help President Obama' didn't strike me as my patriotic duty as much as this. He REALLY needs all the help he can get. Our job as citizen-journalists is to challenge him respectfully, to cheer him on through all adversity and when he proves himself, be the first to give credit where credit is due. Patriots: let us affirm that the Job, here, will truly make The MAN. Humbling has that effect. Carrying that "seal" around will process all the lightweight ore outta him and make a gentleman of him. (I bet he keeps a chatroom to Bill Clinton always on that blackberry.)





You go, guys!
