When people get together these days, they are talking politics and football. Oh the weather gets in there,too, but mostly that's been excellent this week in Michigan.
Here's what some of you are saying about Sarah Palin, the topic that seems not to go away not matter what.
PAM - sent a reference to an article about Palin and Obama. We loved this quotation: She is the reverse of Barack Obama, in essence his shadow, deriding his idealism and exhorting people to obey their worst impulses. In psychological terms the shadow is that part of the psyche that hides out of sight, countering our aspirations, virtue, and vision with qualities we are ashamed to face: anger, fear, revenge, violence, selfishness, and suspicion of "the other."

SPARTY - sent this wonderful quotation: "Sarah knows how to field-dress a moose. I know how to castrate a calf. Neither of those things has anything at all to do with this election. But since we know so much about Sarah's special skills, I wanted to make sure you knew about mine too."( Iowa Lt. Gov. Patty Judge (D), quoted by Iowa Politics.)
DASHMANN - emails that there's an old saying that applies to Palin: "And then she opened her mouth."

BILL FROM WNNCO - Grandpa goofing off with granddaughter. Lots of you will recognize BILL.
FELIX - reports that the Mellencamps of Indiana sponsored a boxing match that featured their own son. Felix himself was the ring announcer, and Felix's lady, PILOT, was the ring doctor.
BILL FROM WNNCO - sent this site which shows a woman doctor who was caught in a mass shooting, talking to Congress about gun control. She's against it! You can see it here: CLICK
DASHMANN - says he had a chance to cheer up his brother-in-law who has been a strong UM supporter. In the process, he says some pretty great things about the University of Michigan. Here's a quotation: "... UM is special ---it’s where everyone wanted to go and really wants to go-- Wish I had been smart enough to be accepted and succeed there. Keep supporting it, and revel in it. Hoping this encourages you."
ALICE - says this is the proper way for a woman to weigh herself. She says she's been doing it wrong up to now.
