From Politco (Arena discussion): “Sen Lieberman (I-Conn.) is taking heat on MSNBC opinion shows, in liberal blogosphere and among civil libertarians and others for his proposal Tuesday that would amend a decades-old law aimed at yanking citizenship from U.S. citizens who fight for a foreign military….Critics contend such a law would allow people to be stripped of citizenship by presidential fiat rather than due process”
At least some others are troubled by this turncoat’s pronouncements.
CGar, It might have something to do with a CLAMBAKE we’re planning!
Ladies ONLY!
PLUSA ladies, email me at cobblehiller1 gmail and we’ll put you on the list for our upcoming reconnaissance mission to HOT BIRD! Hoping to do it next week, or the week after!

Any one know anything about interpreting dreams? I dreamt last night that I went clam-digging with the ladies of the OT, and then we all sat on the beach eating clams.
Wealthy Greeks Lift Prices of Luxury Homes in London
May 5 (Bloomberg) — Wealthy Greeks helped push up London luxury-home prices at the fastest rate in two years as they seek a “safe haven†from their country’s sovereign debt crisis, Knight Frank LLP said in an e-mailed statement today.
Prices of houses and apartments costing more than 1 million pounds ($1.52 million) rose about 21 percent in April from a year earlier, the biggest gain since April 2008, the London- based real-estate broker said in an e-mailed statement today.
Prices rose 1.3 percent during the month.
Greeks now account for 6 percent of all purchases of properties costing more than 2 million pounds, double the level of a year ago, as they try to protect their assets during the country’s economic troubles.
“Greek buyers have been especially active and have been competing hard for the limited number of high-quality properties currently available,†Rupert des Forges, a partner in Knight Frank’s Knightsbridge office, said in the statement. “There has been a real trend for wealthy Greek families to invest in U.K.

You’re going through a sea-change, CatGar.
Eating clams..hmm, let me see, what could that possibly represent?
The Brits will probably be up in arms that their fancy neighberhoods are being ruined by the Greeks.
I love clams
