“On the day I started college in 1979, no woman had ever been on the United States Supreme Court or served as the Speaker of the House. None had been an astronaut or the solo anchor of a network evening news broadcast. Not one had been president of an Ivy League college or run a serious campaign for president.”

Them’s some pretty cool hats but I wouldn’t wear one in a storm.
My mom was always cooking this because she think it is healthy recipe.
OATMEAL PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
2/3 c. oatmeal
2 c. flour
1 tsp. lite salt
1/4 tsp. soda
2 tsp. baking powder
1/3 c. corn oil
2/3 c. salt free peanut butter
1/4 c. Eggbeaters and 1 egg
3 tbsp. skim milk
4 tbsp. liquid sweetener
2 tbsp. sugar substitute
Sift flour, salt, soda, and baking powder. Cream next 6 ingredients
together add oatmeal, beat. Add flour mixture, stir until it forms a
ball; roll into 1 inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Press
down with glass. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes. approx 35
calories per cookie.
Perhaps my favorite pope is St. Pius X who ruled from 1903 to 1914. He’s the last canonized pope. Pius rejected the “modernistic” theology of the day and stood firm on strict traditional dogma. He would no doubt be a target of the far left (communists) today.
They exhumed his body thirty years later and found almost no decay despite his never having been embalmed.
So now after some checking by some graduate students at UNC, most of the 800000+ signatures of the phoney succession “movement” are duplicates!
“… 887,093 signatures. Of these, we identified 312,036 unique combinations of names, places and dates, suggesting that a large number of people were signing more than one petition. Approximately 90%, or 282,383, of these individuals provided valid city locations that we could locate with a US county.”

I think Nicolas Vrba’s post was meant for Lindsey Nair’s blog. She has a thread about cookies.

Allen West falls further behind
By ALEX ISENSTADT | 11/18/12 3:49 PM EST
Florida Rep. Allen West’s reelection prospects grew dimmer Sunday, as a recount of early ballots showed him falling further behind his Democratic opponent.
SNIP
West won a legal battle Friday when the office’s canvassing board decided to re-tally all early votes that had been cast. The Republican had argued that those votes had been accidentally double-counted on election night and provided a winning margin to Murphy.
But with Murphy’s margin growing after the recount, West’s legal options appeared to narrow.

I’ve always had great respect for Dee Dee Myers. The advances made by women and minorities in our political system, over the past 30 years, is cause for hope. Many of us understand that the greatest thing about the United States is its ability to bring together, harmoniously, peoples from many backgrounds. Young people value this diversity. They are more color blind, gender blind, and sexual orientation blind than ever before. This will be a great advantage as they assume leadership in the coming years.
“Florida Rep. Allen West’s reelection prospects grew dimmer Sunday, as a recount of early ballots showed him falling further behind his Democratic opponent.”
OBAMA’S FAULT!
Tip: Go see the movie “The Sessions.” It’s an extraordinary story, very well told.
“most of the 800000+ signatures of the phoney succession “movement” are duplicates!”
I would not be surprised if many of those duplicates are from the same sort of people who stand at the bottom of a gorge and shout at a first-time bungee jumper to take the plunge.

What do you think this means, Suzie?
Not only was food ‘served all day’, some of it was served for weeks and even months!

I think it might mean God signaling to us this man lived a very pure and holy life and that his canonization is warranted.
God help us.

“I think it might mean God signaling to us this man lived a very pure and holy life and that his canonization is warranted.”
Thank you.
Wow, Ron, what a ringing endorsement that is. She’s not qualified to be President, but ignorant people can relate to her, and men don’t care about anything other than the fact that she looks good.
Gas up that car, they’re heading for the cliff again.
Debbie:
“…and men don’t care about anything other than the fact that she [Sarah Palin] looks good.”
I must say, her looks did help distract from the moronic stuff that came out of her mouth.
The destruction of Sarah Palin is an example of the success of the Alinsky strategies:
RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.
RULE 12: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”
The truth is Sarah was more qualified for vice president thatn 0bama was for president in 2008. She had governing experience and a very successful record. But the media hyperfocused on destroying her. They used SNL to ridicule her, while 0bama’s many radical communist associates and sparse record were ignored.
When you think about it, the MSM destroyed all the conservative candidates running for president in the same way, especially Herman Cain. Mitt Romney was a perfectly decent man, and they trashed him personally.
Once can only imagine what they’ll do to Marco Rubio and Bobby Jindal. It’s horribly wrong. Communism and it’s practitioners are evil at their core. Are these the people you want to be associated with, bloggers? Just think hard about what you’re doing. I think you’re better than that.
My favorite moment of irony from the 2008 election was watching Karl Rove dis Tim Kaine as a potential VP pick because he’d only been governor for three years and before that had only been mayor of a small city (Richmond).
Mere days later, he extolled the virtue of Palin’s experience as, um, a brand new governor and mayor of a tiny town (Pop. 6,000 vs. 200,000 for Richmond).
Anyone who thinks Sarah Palin is not a ridiculous public figure all on her own, or that Herman Cain needed help from the MSM to destroy his candidacy must be a complete moron.
#17 “Allen adds that the former governor’s good looks are key to Republican success, since “men love Sarah Palin, and she loves men.”
Better not let the Catholic Church hear about this. The woman probably had premarital sex.
#19 Gosh, funny that suzie would highlight a “rule” (#5) that she practices all the time.
I strongly encourage the Republican Party to nominate Sarah Palin in 2016 and give her Michelle Bachmann as a runnng mate. The party is wellon its way to a permanent minority status with its stances on immigration, women’s issues, civil rights for LGBT folks, and writing blank checks to “corporation” people. A Palin Bachmann ticket would finish them off for at least the next 50 years.

And it could mean that he drank so much wine in his lifetime that his body was permanently preserved by its alcoholic content, sort of like being kept in a vat of formaldehyde.
Or… it could mean that he was really the devil, lying in wait for the right time to sneak out and join in a good old fashioned stoning! or perhaps he would like to bring back the good old days with Pius XI, and reenact, “Kristallnacht….
What do you think this means, Suzie?

hey nNolas vrba,
i think i’ll give your mom’s recipe which combines of 2 of my favorite holiday cookies a try. thanks!
gee, i botched your name. sorry about that. I meant to say “Nicolas”!
thanks again. sounds real good!
Oh and you have never “trashed” Obama “personally”? You are one sick hypocrite!

That ticket would have done a much better job than 0bama/Biden had it run in 2008 and been better qualified and accomplished. No way they would have added $6 trillion to the deficit. America would be MUCH better off today.
hey sandi,
when i accidently botch a name, i try to apologize. when i try to twist a name on purpose, i usually don’t apologize. do ya see the difference?
No way in hell will the GOP run a female as a Presidential candidate, much less run two females for POTUS and VP. It will never happen. They believe women belong in a house, not the White House.
Frank, lay down the ego, I was not speaking to you.
Suzie said: “Mitt Romney was a perfectly decent man, and they trashed him personally.” Which fairly begged me to ask: “Oh and you have never “trashed” Obama “personally”? Then add my own opinion, “You are one sick hypocrite!”
Although you do the same kind of obnoxious name calling and then whine when the favor is returned, so I can see that you would feel I was speaking to you.
The malevolence against Obama makes any complaint against what was said about Romney truly hypocritical.
I think we need a female president, but we shouldn’t force it. I think Hillary Clinton would be a great one… but I really can’t think of another lady I would like to see as prez. The ladies of this country do need more champions in the public square.
@Suzie: “No way they would have added $6 trillion to the deficit.”
So, they would have let the Bush tax cuts completely expire on schedule, because that’s about the only thing that would have kept the debt from increasing the way it did. Or axing Medicare Part D. Or going back in time and paying for Bush’s wars.
Which of those would the Palin/Bachmann ticket have accomplished?
Sandi,
my bad. however, i don’t recall ever whining about whatever names libs call Romney.
No way in hell will the GOP run a female as a Presidential candidate, much less run two females for POTUS and VP. It will never happen. They believe women belong in a house, not the White House.
Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann EMBRACED by the Tea Party. TRASHED by the liberals. Who are the misogynists?

No, Rad, they wouldn’t have had the ridiculous “stimulus” giveaways, they wouldn’t have thrown billions to the unions, and they wouldn’t have wasted tens of billions on so-called green energy. How many TRILLIONS is that right there?
It’s amazing, isn’t it? Rad is fretting about tax cuts that wouldn’t make a small dent in 0bama’s gigantic spending spree.
I think a Palin-Bachmann GOP ticket would be perfect for 2016. I’ll promise to give them lots of publicity!

Dan,
The Communist Party-led MSM has already destroyed these two women using Alinsky’s techniques. It’s a real shame and a great detriment to this country. But—that is the brave new world we are living in.
The Tea Party candidates have not been embraced by the majority of people in this country. If the GOP wants to lose by a spectacular margin, they should run a Palin/Bachmann ticket.
Let’s see, $750 billion for the stimulus (that more than paid for itself by keeping the nation from plunging into a depression). $90 billion for green energy (that was actually part of the stimulus, so, uh, don’t add anything there. Billions to the unions? Assuming you mean the incredibly successful auto bailout, I think we’ve recovered all but about $25 billion of that.
So far, Suze, you’re not even up to $1 trillion.
In the meantime, the Bush tax cuts have cost $4 trillion since 2009.
Math is hard, isn’t it?
#36 We’ll wait for your evidence that they were trashed SOLELY because they were female.
And which party was it that elected the most females to the Senate ever?
Crickets.
gdad:
“And which party was it that elected the most females to the Senate ever?”
True, but it wasn’t worth getting Dianne Feinstein.
So far, Suze, you’re not even up to $1 trillion.
Oh OK. So 0bama didn’t even spend $1 trillion. Maybe Rad should read Mark J’s essay one more time.
We can also be sure Bachmann/Palin wouldn’t be recruiting takers for food stamps and wouldn’t be encouraging welfare. The other INSANE thing Rad said is the Bush tax cuts costing a trillion a year. That assumes a non-existent higher tax rate that wasn’t used. It’s absolutely absurd..
Hey Rad, I was wondering. Could you specify the differences between your goals for this country and those of Communist Party USA? They seem awfully similar.
Have they been in contact with you? Have they sent you in to infiltrate the media and later undermine fossil fuels? And when did you get into this with them? Did they recruit you in college?

Hey Dan R, was I one of the folks on the hiring team when you were hired at TRT? I can’t recall.
Suzie, I would not vote for Palin because of many, many, many, mmmmaaaaannnnnyyyyy, issues! Nowhere in my logic does it say I wouldn’t vote for her due to the sexual organs nature assigned to her.
I understand why she appeals to yourself, you being a conservative and a fundamentalist. But that is where the ticket would die with people like yourself as well. A lot of your fellow conservatives still do not believe in following a female. And no! That is not the liberals or Obama’s fault.
So the only answer is that we are all Communists. That is so damned pitiful. Typical, but pitiful nonetheless.
Dan, you were one of the folks on my hiring team. I think we discussed ethics, among other things.
I don’t think Communism ever came up.
I’ve sworn off responding to Suzie, but her posts on this make my point. She has REALLY jumped the shark. I wonder if she even knows it?
