You and Meade need to make some lawn art.

For the children of Madison.

Original Mike કહ્યું...

He's sooo talented.

Superdad કહ્યું...

It needs some other colors - where are the berries?

traditionalguy કહ્યું...

That looks deliscious. We add Greek Yogurt for extra flavor.

AlphaLiberal કહ્યું...

Appalling news story about a teacher using a hypothetical case of assassinating the President to teach the youth.

If the partisan roles here were reversed this would be covered wall-to-wall on the cable news outlets.

The teacher should be fired for teaching the killing of the President. Instead he got a "talking to."

Exhibit 8,972 in "conservative values."

Phil 314 કહ્યું...

You mean he cut up some fruit

MadisonMan કહ્યું...

Alpha Liberal, you need to learn how to cut and paste.

Phil 314 કહ્યું...

AL;
I wanted to review your link but it didn't work.

chuck b. કહ્યું...

Did he squirt a little lemon juice on it? I always find that punches it up.

MadisonMan કહ્યું...

btw -- now that yet another Republican Congressman has decided not to seek re-election, this breaks the tie. 20 Republican Congressman are now bowing out vs. 19 Democratic. In case anyone is counting.

(I refer to Mark Souder, R-IN)

Hagar કહ્યું...

If the President "will not tolerate any more fingerpointing," what is he planning to do about it?
Implode and self-destruct?

Unknown કહ્યું...

I, like Meade, am a good househusband these days. Give her a hug, Meade, for being appreciative.

I'd be even more impressed if he grew the fruit himself.

Original Mike કહ્યું...

Huh. Didn't know that, edutcher. Not that it's any easier than copy-and-paste.

Fred4Pres કહ્યું...

Did Meade make that up or follow one of the salads from that article you clipped from the NYTs last year?

Hoosier Daddy કહ્યું...

(I refer to Mark Souder, R-IN)

When I first heard this today my initial response was:

Um..ew.

My current response is still.

Ew.

lemondog કહ્યું...

yum

Jose Andres says meat is boring.

The future is vegetables and fruits.

traditionalguy કહ્યું...

I tried to explain the issue in the Connecticutt Senate candidate's use of a purported Marine service in Viet Nam in the late 1960s. It is hard to express, but the gist of his violation is double dipping. We knew then that only about 5% of the politically connected guys got multible deferments no one else ever heard of, and finally got into safe units of National Guard or Reserves that were full and had a 15 year waiting list ( see, George W Bush) Politics is politics. The dirty trick is for one of those fair haired children of priviledged to now brag about their heroic service. The only thing they ever did heroic was to suck up to enough powerful friends of Daddy while they actually laughed at us fools caught in the Draft system. That is Democrat politics in a nutshell today; there is nothing new under the sun.

We live to swerve.

AlphaLiberal કહ્યું...

Sorry for the bad link. Here is the real link for the story on an Alabama teacher using the assasination of the President as a lesson.

It's okay. He had a stern talking to from the Alabama bozo's running the school.

AlphaLiberal કહ્યું...

In other news, Glenn Beck continues to fleece his follower. Followers gladly oblige.

He obviously has not been to Tuscany. Where vegetables, fruits and meat are never ever described as boring.

Fred4Pres કહ્યું...

Okay, I know that Jose probably has been to Tuscany. I can understand not wanting to eat meat and having moral reasons not to. But meat is not boring. Not if it is made correctly.

Phil 314 કહ્યું...

OK AL;
The link works. My impressions:

-yes stupid is the least one can call it
-its reassuring that the Secret Service didn't see a credible threat
-in the absence of possible criminal charges, that leaves disciplinary action by the school. Given the difficulty in implementing effective teacher discipline throughout the country (example here) I'm not too surprised with this case

Phil 314 કહ્યું...

PS
AL;
It must be frustrating that Althouse doesn't have regular "open threads" like say, DailyKos, does.

But despite that, is there really any point to a comment about Glen Beck in a post about a LUNCHTIME FRUIT SALAD?

(okay, okay I can see A connection between Beck and Fruit Salad but still...)

Penny કહ્યું...

Fruit salad always tastes better when someone else does the slicing and dicing.

Where's Chip? Betcha he could suggest a nice gingery sauce for that salad.

traditionalguy કહ્યું...

I have recently read studies that conclude eating plain red meats, such as beef and lamb, has no greater health risk than eating vegetables. However the health risk jumps sky high when people are eating processed meats such as hot dogs and sausages due to their high levels of salt and nitrites. That was encouraging since there are only so many days in a row that you can enjoy fish and chicken

Trooper York કહ્યું...

Hey. Where are the morels?

Or is today a morel free day?

wv: facti

I kid you not.

Be કહ્યું...

Banana, pineapple and mango offset by Oneidaware on a classic copper background. (Sigh - isn't Spring lovely?)

Ritmo Re-Animated કહ્યું...

Awwww..... he made a salad with mango!

You can't have-a the mango!

Methadras કહ્યું...

... Meade made a fruit salad.

So what does he want? A cookie?

Chip Ahoy કહ્યું...

Nice salad there. Today I made ceviche.

Penny કહ્યું...

"You can't have-a the mango!"

And NO fandango for you, senor! ;)

knox કહ્યું...

(okay, okay I can see A connection between Beck and Fruit Salad but still...)

LOL. And phony dumbass salad.

Wince કહ્યું...

Isn't "a fruit salad" one of those terms like "tea bagging"?

TVUStudent કહ્યું...

Needs some red berries

rhhardin કહ્યું...

Lunchtime at rhhouse.

Shared brown rice.

BJM કહ્યું...

@Fred4pres

Porchetta di Ariccia is the very antithesis of boring meat... it's sublimely simple...like Meade's fruit salad.
