My thanks to all Tammy Army Members for their support which makes program like this possible.
Comments, notes and non sequiturs:
1) I prefer the term “Thought Police” rather than ‘Gestapo’:
a) because it has a more sinister, dark, overlord, omnipresent, every
typed byte and facecam is monitored for disobeyance to groupthink.
b) it refers to your first book; way ahead of it’s time. 5 stars.
2) Had to look up the term ‘meme’ ah ha!…that’s what it means! new
word added to my vocabulary, thanks T.
3) To the Washington,D.C. ruling class, the term ‘cut’ is always a ‘cut’ in
the ‘rate of spending’ but the government ministry of truth(MSM) never
makes that distinction to the ‘sheeple’ during the scheduled propaganda newscasts.
4) Boehner is a legistator, not a leader and can’t play high stakes poker. He’s the sucker at the Tony Soprano ‘executive game’=fleeced. no shirt, no watch, no car…and crying, with his thumb out at the side of the highway or on the pay phone at the Denny’s calling his brother to pick him up and to not tell his wife he just lost the college funds for the kids.
5) Tammy Maximus: “At my signal, unleash hell!”
6) FYI: “wrong notes” are called ‘clams’ when playing the guitar.
7) “I declare Victory…Not”—JoAnne Kloppenburg, Loser.
*) Shenanigans-The restaurant in the movie, “Waiting…” 6.8 on imbd.
9) The play window in the podcast doesn’t show the length of it(1:12:57),
just the elapsed time. Minor technical point, but thought you needed to know.
Welcome home Tammy!
Ciao’
Identifying memes is the new meme.
Yes sir…looked up “meme” in the dictionary a few months ago and now it stalks me..me..me…
Tammy – thanks for doing this report so soon after a cross-country trip.
Here is the audio of an interview that Rep. Bachmann did this morning with Neil Cavuto. My head is spinning trying to understand if she’s coming or going or both.

Tammy Note: Thanks for the info and link, but we had to take the link out due to our new security policy of no links in comments, but I got it. 🙂
I saw the trailer for “Hop”, and that’s enough for me. It looks to be an excuse for a series of cheap, puerile gags. That’s two hours of your life you’re never going to get back. Tell me if I’m wrong.
Possibly the best monologue I’ve heard you deliver. A true “analysis” of the day’s events as opposed to the propaganda spouted by the daily TV media. Thanks for that!
BTW: How much would you charge to give a 1 hour talk (your choice of subject) in my livingroom?) – I’ll pay the airfare and other essentials…(sort of kidding, but not exactly…)

Since we have you and a few others to inspire us you are right about getting tired of the anger all the time. When we do hear someone that thinks alike it’s a relief and gives people hope. That’s why people are really waiting for Gov Palin so much because they know what she’ll do, in the mean time it’s sucks being worried and pissed off all the time. I hope people will be begging her to run :)grrr!!!
My 2012 nerves are calmed by this podcast. Thank you, Tammy.
A better definition of meme is: Monkey see monkey do.
Oooooh, I’m thinkin’ MeMe from the ‘Drew Carrion’ show :} Hilk, hilk!
tammy i don’t like that pethakoukis dude..i’ll tell u why..because he doesn’t take what’s happening very seriously..he’s got much more faith in the establishment AND i don’t like how he laughs so much while he’s talking about the destruction of our country and lives..i find him flippant. the show was incredibly good as usual!!
ShArKy666 I got the same impression hearing him talk to Tammy. Strikes me as one of the establishment insiders and as such I believe him as much as Boehner (NOT).
You have to admire the nerve of Crybaby Boehner. He hit a bunt single yet he acts like it’s a grand slam.
