Congratulations Rachel! Well deserved!

My apologies for the non-diary diary. Just wanted to share the great news!

UPDATE: Thank you, Rachel Maddow for getting yourself on the rec list. I certainly didn't have anything to do with it. I was only sharing good news!

Update 2: Thanks to pgm01 for additional info in the comments, which I'm adding below.

I don't like writing too personal diaries about my family. However, having spent this year discussing the desperate need for a change in healthcare, and Joe Lieberman's desire to shit on hard working Americans, I want to tell a story about what I learned over the last month or so.

We are very fortunate to have good insurance, can afford the co-pays and have the time and ability to get where we need to go when medical issues come up.

But I can't stop thinking about others who aren't as fortunate. What about them?

I'm not very good at writing diaries. In fact, every time I attempt one, I criticize it into the cancel bin. But today, I read something that really ticked me off, so I am forcing myself to write this and share this story with everyone here, who I know really cares about others. I tried to follow the diary rules and hope I succeeded. I ask that you forgive my inexperienced diary ability and bear with me as this issue really struck a nerve with me.

I came across the Democratic opposition research paper here: (http://www.kissmybigbluebutt.com/palin_2006[1].pdf
on Sarah Palin from 2006. Some interesting things in there, but most of the municiple spending issues are above my head. Have a look if you're interested. There are 60+ pages to plough through. My personal favorite? When Palin calls herself a weasel. No kidding.

I really don't want to write this diary, but since I shared my stupid doctor/insurance problem previously here, and was given some advice, I thought I'd update what resulted.

In an interview for broadcast tonight on Nightline, Edwards told ABC News correspondent Bob Woodruff he did have an affair with 42-year old Rielle Hunter, but said that he did not love her.

Edwards also denied he was the father of Hunter's baby girl, Frances Quinn, although the one-time Democratic Presidential candidate said he has not taken a paternity test.

Just wanted to invite everyone in Houston to come see the Worst President Ever in River Oaks on Friday July 18. He'll be here to raise some bucks for Pete Olsen in CD22 - Tom DeLay's former district.

Just back from spending Thanksgiving week in Mexico where I experienced a few mind numbing moments. Please allow me to share.

As my 2 ounces of toothpaste (left in a 5 ounce tube) was confiscated at the airport, the TSA agent tried to make me feel better by telling me this is "all because of 9/11". "Paste can be formed into explosives", she said. I told her I appreciated that she was just doing her job, but that comment was total BS. The only reason for the rediculous security measures was to raise gullible American's fear level while pretending to keep them safe by making a big show at airports. I suggested better immigration and border control policies would provide real security.

So Denny is going to spend more time with his family? Not so much. It seems Brent Wilkes trial is getting more interesting by the day.
