Rules:Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.

The sentence must, in someway, relate to the news of the day.

Advice is given in many ways. Sometimes by imperious edict, sometimes by threat, sometimes by the sweet voice of reason. Always do we exhort others to do that to which we most aspire.
The hortative blandishments of a Trump tweet are gentle rain as compared to the dhimmitudinal brandishments of an Obama threat.

The poster may seem prescriptive regarding the use of the Word of the Day but I consider her to be hortative.

Despite daily hortative remarks from all sides, President Trump continues to use Twitter in his own unique way.

Well, in the interest of raising the level of discourse.

“I don’t think Steve should have taken that prostitute to the local CBS affiliate. It’s just no right to take a hortative station.”

I thought at first, this word I’d never heard, might have something to do with the study of time.

Hillary’s Steamless Engine

Huff and puff
Snort and sniffle
“Old news… next question”
Gallons of whiskey rotted
the old crooked windbag
Hardly a muscle left to flog her
admirers with another hortative hoot
About “Old News.”

No one takes the hortative missives of the Mohammedan Mayor seriously.

Melania received a hortatory horticultural report from the White House gardeners and decided to have the dying Jackson Magnolia replaced with a sapling sprouted from the old tree.
