Democrats Show Some Spinefulness
Posted by Michelle Moquin on November 19th, 2010
Hello…
I love making up words. Especially when I can’t find a word to describe what I am trying to say. Sometimes I even think I am making up a word only to find it in the dictionary. I love when that happens too.
Evidently Rachel Maddow feels the same way about making up words when she can’t find the right one. Only when I make up a word I don’t apologize to Merrium or Webster. In fact I think my made-up words should be added to the dictionary! And perhaps Maddow’s should be too :)
Her new word? “Spinefulness”
spinefulness |?sp?n?fo?ln?s|
adjective
- Having spine or backbone; invertebrate
Democrats show rare spinefulness

Readers: Let’s HOPE the “spinefulness” is a lasting thing. Thoughts? Blog me.
Wizz: I just saw your note. I am well – thanks. Next time Blog me. I would’ve love to have seen Basia. Doug wasn’t around and perhaps I could’ve had someone else take me. HOPE you are well too.
Zen Lill: It looks like it’s you and me babe. :) Men actually stated to you that because they chose to have a wife and kids that they deserved more money (and ‘family time’ off) ? And what do women deserve when they have to put up with men’s shit? Certainly better pay to say the least. But instead many women find the man cheating on her or leaving her for a younger newer model for some new p***y. As the saying goes, “Two inches more and you’d find some new p***y right here.” :)
I was reading the Huff Po the other day and all I kept seeing were articles of women discovering their man cheating and divorce was now in the works. Why do you think so many young women are opting out of marriage when they discover they don’t need a man to take care of them; they are totally self sufficient. Why bother. Sad, but they have a point with the way men cheat and the high divorce rate.
Got to run to my class, that works my butt and kicks it too!
Peace out.
Lastly, greed over a great story is surfacing from my “loyal”(?) readers. With all this back and forth about who owns what, that appears on my blog, let me reiterate that all material posted on my blog becomes the sole property of my blog. If you want to reserve any proprietary rights don’t post it to my blog. I will prominently display this caveat on my blog from now on to remind those who may have forgotten this notice.
Gratefully your blog host,
michelle

Hi Misch, the exact wording I’m not recalling but yes, it was stated and always heavily implied that HE (5 men in office) has/have a wife/kids to support, YOU are on your own with only your expensive habits to support (I was a well-dressed woman with an open dating schedule who often skiied and traveled, thus being seen as a free-wheeling type, and yep I was, but that’s got no bearing on how I earn money or anyone’s biz ’bout how I spend it, I asked no q’s about your weekly dates at nice restaurants with the wife or affording private school for your little buggers…now did I?), we all make our choices but who chooses what lifestyle has got no place in deciding who gets to earn more or less, male or female, no where should that be clearer than in the world of commissioned sales : ) trust me…
OK, here’s your fun food for the day : ) recipe is for one serving, just keep doubling up for company…
cut up a 1/2 cup each of arugala and spinach and grape or cherry tomatoes, cut up 2-3 tablespoons of basil and cilantro, toss in a bowl with 1/4 teaspoon of mionced garlic and olive oil and bragg’s (or soya sauce) – cook pasta, corkscrews work nicely, toss 1/2 cup of pasta in that bowl and voila’ – a healthy pasta salad, evryone loves this one, sometimes I add a bit of lemon and parmesan cheese or maybe some minced ginger and sesame oil, play around with it, you’ll like it and want to eat it often. Tomorrow am, if you’re just starting out here, go take a 45 minute walk, no dawdling or strolling, wave at the neighbors and plough on…the rest of you, power walking for 45 minutes, it’s a saturday, you’ve got time…!
Luv, Zen Lill
