Olympics Open Thread

You all talk amongst yourselves.  I'm occupied batting my eyelashes at Tonga Boy.  Ooo-la-la!

The 10th

Happy 10th Wedding Anniversary husband!  The traditional gift is tin/aluminum, which I can live without :)  I'm allergic to tin and I have enough foil to last a year.

Ed the Weatherman once said it would be all over by the 5th!  His predictions were almost as accurate as the weather forecasters...not!

Jindal Gets Fiery

"I can sense right now a rebellion brewing amongst these United States," Jindal said, "where people are ready for a hostile takeover of Washington, D.C., to preserve the American Dream for our children and grandchildren."

"I am tired of the left. They say they're for tolerance, they say they respect diversity. The reality is this: They respect everybody unless you happen to disagree with them," he said. "The left is trying to silence us and I'm tired of it, I won't take it anymore."

"The federal government has no role, no right and no place dictating standards in our local schools across these 50 states of the United States of America," Jindal said.

"Are we witnessing right now the most radically, extremely liberal, ideological president of our entire lifetime right here in the United States of America, or are we witnessing the most incompetent president of the United States of America in the history of our lifetimes? You know, it is a difficult question," he said. "I've thought long and hard about it. Here's the only answer I've come up with, and I'm going to quote Secretary Clinton: 'What difference does it make?'"

Action movie star Steven Seagal noted in a Moscow Times Interview that he’s on board with Russia’s military action in Crimea, is pals with Vladimir Putin, and may even move to the former Soviet Union someday, according to the Raw Story.

Seagal called Putin “one of the great world leaders,” adding that he “would like to consider him as a brother,”

Shirtless Putin, responding from his annual bear ride through Siberia, stated "I shall eat his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti."
