Happy Day before Thanksgiving!

[saveliberty]

Good morning, everyone! Here's your Tony Snow Show ping!

Recipe for Turkey à la Clinton
1. Ask the Secret Service agent how to turn on the oven to 350 degrees
2. Put turkey in the oven (complete with packet still in the cavity of the turkey)
3. Make lots of “important calls". Dang. Nobody’s answering.
4. Take turkey out 6 hours later. It’s awful.
5. Yell at the staff and stomp off
6. Start yelling at the other family members. Be sure to go all out to humiliate everyone
7. Add it to the memoirs about how the whole family laughed about the turkey incident.

Good Workers

Read:
Exodus 35:30-36:1

Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings. —Proverbs 22:29

Bible In One Year: 1 Corinthians 5-8

During the early years of our marriage, my wife and I attempted to wallpaper our dingy Chicago apartment. We completed the project, but not without a great deal of difficulty. At one point I even had to remove a poorly-hung section of paper and go to the store to buy more. I learned to appreciate someone who could do a job like wallpapering with skill.

I marvel when I see a carpenter make things fit without measuring and remeasuring again and again. I admire the truckdriver who masterfully backs his big rig into a tight space more easily than I do a small trailer on a 16-foot-wide driveway. I take my hat off to the plumber who so easily and good-naturedly installed a water heater in a small, seemingly inaccessible area—especially when I think of all the frustration I experienced when trying to attach a simple water filter.

We read in today's Scripture about the skilled designers and weavers who helped construct the tabernacle. Proverbs 22:29 says that a person who excels in his work "will stand before kings." And Paul wrote, "Whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord" (Colossians 3:23).

God is pleased with work done well. He honors good workers, and so should we. —Herb Vander Lugt

O Lord, I ask for strength to do
The task that You've assigned;
Help me to work with diligence,
Lest Your name be maligned. —Fasick

Work done well will receive God's "Well done!"

#8..Feed it to Buddy...why do you think the poor dog ran away and got hisself kilt?

[radioproducer]

Good morning, everybody! Are you enjoying the fine musical stylings of Sen. Robert Byrd over the internet stream?

[Peach]

Good one! I assume you've heard how the Clinton's each have their "specialty" and are cooking the meal together. When pigs fly.

BTW, when those family members visit tomorrow who have leftist leanings and bring up the war and how awful it is -- try this.

Mention how Clinton signed the Iraqi Liberation Act and how, although it's true he didn't go to war over it, don't they think it's negligent he DIDN'T go to war considering what frightening things he had to say about Iraq and their WMD program?

Anybody hear Andrea Mitchell on Imus this a.m.? What a joke - now she "disremembers" how she knew it was common knowledge that Plame worked for the CIA

[saveliberty]

:-) Good morning, Lovergirl!

[saveliberty]

Eeek! No cruelty to pets!

[Bahbah]

Anybody hear Andrea Mitchell on Imus this a.m.?

LOL. Yes, I did. She was working hard to convince us that, notwithstanding that she is a beltway insider, she really doesn't know anything. It was hilarious.

Thought this was interesting from Viking Pundit:

The prevailing opinion

I’m almost done with General Tommy Franks’ autobiography “American Soldier” but I’d thought I’d share this passage from page 418:


I met with King Abdullah II of Jordan in his home in Amman on the afternoon of Thursday, January 23, 2003. “General,” he said, “from reliable intelligence sources, I believe the Iraqis are hiding chemical and biological weapons.”

The Jordanians did have reliable intelligence sources in Iraq. I trusted them, and I trusted the king’s judgment. And I wasn’t surprised at what his sources had reported. I’d spent days and nights over the previous twelve years worrying about Saddam’s WMD program, and the effect that such weapons could have on our troops – or on my country. I thanked the king, left his home, drove to the hotel, and straight to the Comm room to pass the information I’d been given to Secretary Rumsfeld.

[snip section about how General Franks’ plane was diverted to Cairo, Egypt]

Hosni Mubarak was friendly as always. But he was clearly concerned with our military buildup and the tension in Iraq.

He leaned close and spoke to me in accented but readily comprehensible English. “General Franks,” he said, choosing his words carefully, as Abdullah had done. “You must be very, very careful. We have spoken with Saddam Hussein. He is a madman. He has WMD – biologicals, actually – and he will use them on your troops.”
The maddening fact is that Hussein, indisputably, had weapons of mass destruction; and almost nobody believed he willingly destroyed his arsenal.
