AHA...AND THE TABLES WERE TURNED...

This is an interesting video, with Adam Greene of OpenLeft a blog site confronting the attack "journalist" from clusterFOX news, Griff Jenkins - outside a building where members of ACORN were meeting.

Jenkins is a fukktard of gargantuan proportions anyway, so this was a delight to my eyes to see someone literally catch him off guard. Note how Jenkins decides to rant on about Adam Green being from the PRESS. Yay, bloggers are now considered legitimate reporters!!



Memo to self **next time interviewing anyone, take along my own RED CARPET!

If I watched O'Reilly, it would be interesting to see what kind of SPIN the blowhard puts on this video, if he has the nerve to air the entire mess. We all know "the SPIN stops here" with O'Reilly - so EVERYTHING MUST BE TRUE.

***********************

We were hit with some fierce storms last night, causing major damage throughout the valley. The first storm was not a direct hit here, and thegrandson and I watched the black clouds from the front porch, while chatting with the neighbor and wondering what the end result would be for us. Initially, we had mostly lightening and thunder, as the storm skirted around us, the first barrage of rain started, yet only lasted maybe one half hour. The second storm was hot on the tails of the first - and the picture above is a funnel cloud that formed not far from here. There were no reports of it touching down, but when you live in a valley of many hills, a tornado sighting is a rarity. The second storm inundated us with 3" of rain in an hour, causing major flooding just south of me. The street to my daughter's house was closed due to high water as were many others nearby.

On June 14, 1990, we had the Wegee and Pipe Creek floods which killed 26 people, several whom I knew...so we are a valley of "creek watchers." That was a case, called a "one hundred year event", where a storm stalled over this area and dumped 6" of rain with 4" being dumped in the first hour. It was a horrible time for so many. To this day, if we are hit by torrential downpours, the flashbacks reappear.

This time my basement stayed dry - that makes me a very happy camper. Some neighbors got hit this time, which is strange to me, but I won't question it at this point.

So much to do and I seem to be spinning my wheels. Have a great day and catch ya.....later...........

We are supposed to have equally hard storms again tomorrow night - so if Mother Nature could be appeased in anyway - I'm open to suggestions.

FREE RIDE...I don't think it is expected!!!!

Watching this clip actually made my stomach turn - along with the violent thoughts I had - something involving explosives and Faux News!



Face it, these guys are jerks - and have enjoyed their free rides as "white folk", and generally haven't a clue. I've seen it and I know how this election has , if nothing else, inspired the black population. I say "good for you." These arrogant assholes would not last long around me - I would have to open that can of Whoop Ass! Just a thought here - I believe these people are living in fear now...fear of the unexpected, fear of the uncharted territory we are now in, fear of what...an uprising.

Obama gave his first speech as President Elect (discounting his acceptance speech), and face it, the man is a realist. Now, the right wingnut conservatives are going to be jumping on every step he makes, right off the bat - oh that would be Faux again. Considering the massive mess W has left for Obama - I honestly believe he will make some drastic changes at the onset, but still maintain the promises he made. I'm a realist, and I know that nothing can happen overnight - especially with the nightmare that exists. As my father always told me "Time and patience will accomplish all things!"

Employees Expose FOX NEWS' Distortions

This is long, but I found it interesting.

Years ago I would have FOX news on...as if I was punishing myself by watching Hannity. I even joined the "I Hate Hannity" clubs online. The only person I MAY watch occasionally is Greta - to see what current case she is following - but even she has gone so far right - that has not been happening.

Anyway, if you have the time - this piece is quite revealing.
