DANA CARVEY with George H. W. Bush #danacarvey
Things that Make Me SmileGeorge H. W. Bush invites Dana Carvey to the White House in late 1992 after he loses the election to Bill Clinton. Carvey and Bush were friends after this, according to Carvey. It's lovely to see a commander in chief with a sense of humor. I tend to impersonate those I love, and sometimes they take offense. I can't help it--when I love someone, I miss them and want to remember them when they are gone, even if I have to pretend to be them!12 views -

Bidenomics "explained" LOL! #bidenomics
Things that Make Me SmilePresident Biden gives a very confusing and garbled explanation of Bidenomics. No matter how hard he tries to be the Mark Twain of his generation, he can't help but come across as the poster child for confused people in large numbers.10 views -

Cher gives Sonny Bono's Eulogy #sonnyandcher
Things that Make Me SmileJanuary 9, 1998, after Sonny is killed in a skiing accident. I remember this well. My wife had just left me and I was alone, deployed to Korea, and the news came to me. As well as I could, I watch all the coverage of this. I grew up watching Sonny and Cher. Funny story--Mom thought he was killed skating. I told he, "He hit a tree! Who put trees in the middle of skating rinks?" Well, very hard to watch.16 views -
Sonny Bono brings down the house at Washington Press Club
Things that Make Me SmileSonny Bono talks about how he got into politics. Only a few weeks after he was sworn in to the House in 1995, Bono brought down the house at a Washington Press Club Foundation dinner with a hilarious, rambling discourse that set him apart from many of his more sober-sided fellow "revolutionaries" in the congressional "Class of '94." #sonnybono #sonnyandcher #washingtondc #senatorbono29 views -
This is all President Biden needs to do (but he won't) #electrion2024 #trump47
Things that Make Me SmilePresident Biden keeps pushing things to Congress such as border bills, but the fact is he used his executive power to cancel the Trump policies that were working on January 20, 2021. There are other executive actions that are contributing to this situation, and righting the ship may be easier than he tells people. Of course, his stance on protecting the life of the most helpless and most innocent is another story, but the answer to some of the more visible issues may be in his own executive powers which he refuses to exercise. I stumbled upon this little soundbite, and I liked that it seemed to sum things up all neatly.9 views -
