My mom made that stuff all the time! She did the whole thing on the stove, though. She had some awesome cookware....the kind you pay big bucks for now. She added mushrooms, sliced potatoes, and some spices.

NO LEFTOVERS!

Oh so they can leave once they've questioned? That makes sense...

They usually leave after the opening statements and then come back just before it is their turn. C-Span occasionally shows the seats, empty but for a few.

This does kinda remind me of the SAT...hours of torture, then a 5-minute break, then more hours...

Only for the witnesses. Remember the Senators are often not there. They can have a meal, take a nap, use the restroom, etc. Not so the witnesses. Senators think that they are gods.

And that MUST change! We PAY them to represent US!

I say..... clear the board and start over.

I am with you! And once that board is scrubbed clean and cloroxed we need to limit their terms!

Oh, and it was sooooo good!

How about Danny DeVito?

Graham actually vindicated himself tonight on Hannity & Colmes. He said the move on people have hit a new low and should burn in hell. He’s right about that.

Petraeus deserves a BIG dinner after this. And if any members of Congress even think of joining him at the restaurant...



Notice the cheese on Feingold...Wisconsin's finest. And Harry Reid gets a bottle of the 90s beverage SURGE (hinthint) across the noggin. And the General gets his well-deserved "I Survived" medal.

Life’s just tough when you’re endorsed by Chinese fugitives, ain’t it Hillary?

I saw that. Graham has been pretty solid on the war. I just don’t always trust him. He seems a bit squirrely...lol

I used the words "Poor Thing" ... I was trying to remember what my aunt would have said ... "Bless Her Heart"

Used by my aunt to describe, politely, someone very stupid!

I’m watching the replay of the 1st hearing today. I would SO LOVE to kick Feingold where the sun don’t shine! With stiletto heels!
