A Truth Journal: Hillary Clinton: Favorite Chew Toy of Press, Political Enemies? Deleted Emails: Asked, Answered, FBI Investigated

A Truth Journal: Hillary Clinton: Favorite Chew Toy of Press, Political Enemies? Deleted Emails: Asked, Answered, FBI Investigated: From Denny: The FBI Director said that only three out of 30,000 deleted emails were classified, devoid of the appropriate markings labeling them as classified. Later that was revised to 100 emails not properly labeled as classified. After she was out of office those emails were later classified. Well, if she did not know they were going to be classified in the future how was she responsible for them before their classification?

As Clinton stated: If you have worked in the federal government and an email is classified it usually has a huge warning heading at the top of the email to let the recipient know the obvious. None of these emails mentioned by the FBI Director contained such a warning heading about classification.

The FBI Director, a staunch Republican, who you know received tremendous pressure from his party to put Hillary in jail, had to admit she did nothing criminally wrong. Well, at least he had the good character to put the Truth where it belonged. Did he think her unwise? Sure. She took responsibility for using two servers in order to preserve her family's privacy both from the press and political enemies hell bent on crucifying her. She gets it now.

Of course, the irony here is that her server was never hacked or compromised by a foreign state like Russia or China. Guess who was? ...

A Truth Journal: Full Transcript, Video: President Bill Clinton: 2016 Democrat Convention Speech: Let Me Tell You About The Real Hillary, Not the Cartoon Version the Republicans Sell

A Truth Journal: Full Transcript, Video: President Bill Clinton: 2016 Democrat Convention Speech: Let Me Tell You About The Real Hillary, Not the Cartoon Version the Republicans Sell:

From Denny: Who knows you - as the reality you - better than your spouse? Well, former President Bill Clinton knocked it out of the park with his version of "the spouse speech" for a presidential candidate.

While some of the younger female commentators took the obtuse perspective and frowned upon Bill's speech as the only way to tell Hillary's story was to center it around Bill's life, most commentators understood what he was really doing with the chronicled narrative of Hillary's adult life once she and Bill met and joined forces to do good in the world. In fact, Bill Clinton did a great job of doing the Hillary campaign's job for them: opening a window into their private world to allow the public to know about the evolution of and entirety of Hillary...

The Social Poets: Freaky Friday: Comic Jimmy Fallon Mocks Donald Trump GOP Convention Entrance

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 23 Jul 2016 17:25:00 +0000

The Social Poets: Freaky Friday: Comic Jimmy Fallon Mocks Donald Trump GOP Convention Entrance: From Denny: Donald Trump should have figured it out by now that the only guys who can out showbiz him are the comedians. Jimmy Fallon never disappoints, irreverent as always and spot on accurate.

Just in case any of our fellow Americans living overseas missed this funny because you are living in a country of heavy censorship, I'm putting this one up for you. (So far, none of my blogs have landed on a censorship list in some foreign country because I'm too small to notice. ) For all the rest of us, it's good to laugh yet again even if you have seen this clip a hundred times. It just possesses that lasting quality.

Donald Trump really is just too full of himself. It's like he has appointed himself dictator, but more on that later about what has been popping up in the news that could be prove quite chilling if he were actually elected and propelled into the White House.

Meanwhile, let's just get a well deserved laugh on Freaky Friday here because Donald Trump really does fly his Freak Flag a little too often. But the Comedy Gods are keeping him somewhat humble. Check out Jimmy Fallon's rendition...

A Truth Journal: Election 2016 GOP Convention Disasters: Plagiarized Melania Speech, Rejecting Rule of Law. Trump Truly Not Ready To Be President?

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Fri, 22 Jul 2016 17:06:00 +0000

Melania Trump, left in 2016 and current First Lady Michelle Obama, right in 2008.

A Truth Journal: Election 2016 GOP Convention Disasters: Plagiarized Melania Speech, Rejecting Rule of Law. Trump Truly Not Ready To Be President?: From Denny: Two major disasters for the Republican Party just on day one of their much touted Trump style showbiz convention. First up? The political party that lays claim to - and totally brain washes their followers into believing with such conviction - is that they are the party of "the rule of law." Well, until that "rule of law" no longer serves their immediate political purposes and grab for power so they blow on past that "rule of law" like a winter north wind on a subzero cold day....

A Truth Journal: Our Freedom: Living Courage, Dying For Honor: Celebrating Vietnam War USMC GSGT Charles "Chuck" Perkins

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 05 Jul 2016 00:38:00 +0000

A Truth Journal: Our Freedom: Living Courage, Dying For Honor: Celebrating Vietnam War USMC GSGT Charles "Chuck" Perkins: From Denny: Today is more than just that long needed holiday vacation with the family, fun backyard barbecues and country music festivals. It's one of those few days of the year that Americans come together to remember the fallen in our too many wars over the past few centuries of our young country.

Some of those wars were justified for the greater good to bring back world peace. Other wars spilled precious blood for nothing more than the Pentagon leaders' selfish need for personal glory and the just plain money-grubbing greed of business people: otherwise known as war profiteers.

Profiteers and War and Bad Politics

FYI, for those who don't remember or don't know: The Vietnam War was a proxy war between the U. S. and Russia. Russia backed North Vietnam and the U. S. backed South Vietnam.

"Feeding the Beast" of Russia with American Money

Profiteers are still with us today, not just the Vietnam War era. Take a look at how our current day Pentagon is busy "feeding the military beast" of Russia. The latest nonsense is giving away half a billion dollars to the Russians in exchange for Russian rocket engines that you know Putin will sabotage. Come on, really? Putin is supposed to be under sanctions, and, yet, our Pentagon and Congress find a way to feed his ailing economy another $500 million??? The sanctions won't work as long as the Pentagon, Congress and Wall Street cockroach around them...

A Truth Journal: LSU: Should A College Athletic Director Be Allowed to Leverage A Sports Commentator To Run a Power Play to Get Rid of a Coach?

A Truth Journal: LSU: Should A College Athletic Director Be Allowed to Leverage A Sports Commentator To Run a Power Play to Get Rid of a Coach?: From Denny: "Hey, I've got an idea; let's leverage this guy Booger McFarland, sports commentator from ESPN and SEC Nation, to be our mouthpiece. He's already made it clear he is willing to do anything and say anything as mean as possible. You know he doesn't have any integrity. He's one of us, he he. He can slander Coach Les Miles and call for his firing, promoting our weak reasons for why he has to go," says Athletic Director Joe Alleva to a few disgruntled members on the LSU Board of Supervisors and a few wealthy boosters.

Alleva turned Booger loose to grind on the LSU Tigers and run down the brand of both the college and the coach, believing that was a great strategy to get rid of Coach Miles. After all, Booger bragged he "is great friends with Athletic Director Joe Alleva and LSU President King Alexander."

"Yeah, and let's hide our nasty strategy from the majority of the LSU Board of Supervisors. Let's keep them in the dark until we have to tell them. They don't need to know until we have whipped up public sentiment so negative we can easily get rid of Coach Miles. They never need to find out our game plan until after the coach is gone. We can brag about what we did and celebrate then. Agreed?" promises the few conniving members on the LSU Board of Supervisors to Alleva, Alexander and each other, hoping to contain the truth from seeing daylight.

Of course, their nasty plan backfired because of both LSU fan push back and political pressure demanding they quit being Stuck on Stupid immediately.

Hats Off Noel Snow Burlap Throw Pillow

These were the idiots that decided it would be good business to run down the LSU brand - to which in the public's mind Coach Les Miles is so strongly attached - and run down the very successful football program. Weren't any of these clueless guys aware that LSU's football program is one of the very few profitable college programs in the entire nation? Why would any person with a brain and an ounce of emotional maturity be Stuck on Stupid and blow up the profits to the state?

And who installed these fools on the LSU Board of Supervisors? It's past due time that these pot stirrers - with no business sense - get kicked off the LSU Board. Gov. elect John Bel Edwards will be in office in early January. He needs to seriously find some better candidates to replace those diva pot stirrers and fast.

"Well, guys, if this blows up in our faces my fingerprints were never on it," declares scared stick LSU President F. King Alexander, "It's on you, Joe."

Yeah, Alexander was in on the plot as well because he never came out and spoke to the public or the press in support of Coach Miles for well over a week while Miles roasted over the open pit of public and media speculation. Clearly, Alexander and those few LSU Board members hoped Coach Miles would despair at getting savaged that he would feel compelled to resign. Coach Miles handled the heat and stayed in that hot kitchen to the bitter end, winning public support, forcing the LSU Board, Alexander and Alleva to relent...

A Truth Journal: LSU Saw The Light To Keep Coach Les Miles. Political Pressure and Fan Pushback Brought It About: From Denny: What a game tonight as Coach Les Miles led his much tighter team to a great win against Texas A & M. This was a must win game for our coach to be considered to remain as head coach. Just 20 seconds after the game AD Joe Alleva came out and announced that Les Miles will stay on as head coach. It was Coach Miles' first hearing of the decision just moments after the game.

The past few weeks a group of boosters have tried to orchestrate his firing. What a bunch of divas, thinking a bunch of angry rich old white guys could throw their weight around and force his firing without even consulting the fan base of thousands of fans across the nation who follow LSU football. Coach Miles is the very picture of "grace under fire," something those boosters did not mirror.

The attitude of AD Joe Alleva and his booster posse have greatly angered the state of Louisiana and the city of Baton Rouge in particular. Political pressure started coming to bear when the LSU fans loudly and bitterly complained about this nasty and unprofessionally handled situation...

A Truth Journal: Idiot Gridiron Club Boosters FIre Winning LSU Coach Les Miles: From Denny: Well, it's official. LSU Coach Less Miles is coaching his last game Saturday, 28 November 2015. But wait - it's official: Rich old white men are behaving like diva tittie babies throwing a collective temper tantrum, a few angry old men ignoring the wishes of thousands of LSU fans. Are they related to Putin? Sure looks like it because these guys have zero class about how they go about parting ways with a winning coach who is also a terrific guy and an effective teacher.

Les Miles coached 142 games while at LSU for almost 11 years. His record? Pretty stellar stuff: 110 - 32. Miles took his LSU Tigers to two SEC championships, three SEC West titles and also a BCS National Championship in 2007. Since that win the boosters have hankered for more, unable to think soberly or realistically since they are in possession of a very young team. Those immature rich old men want what they want and no one will be tolerated to stand in their way. Well, Coach Les Miles was standing in their way - to hear these guys tell it... read on to hear about the boosters who are nothing but yahoo diva tittie babies throwing temper tantrums hurting the LSU brand...

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 15 Oct 2015 15:57:00 +0000

Shaking hands reluctantly: Putin, left and Obama, right/AP photo

A Truth Journal: Russia: What Is Putin REALLY Doing in Syria?: From Denny: You know when Putin is desperate for money - and for international cover - when he comes to the U. S. acting like he is bosom pals with President Obama. Of course, the real reason he was meeting with Obama - after two years of absence because he was pouting - was to see if Obama was clueless as to what Putin was about to do in Syria. Putin was satisfied that Obama was indeed unaware and easily fooled.

Putin took that as a sign he could pee on Obama and so he did. Well, that was stupid because Obama does not forget or forgive easily. It might take Obama some time for retaliation but he will do something Putin will really fear.

As to Syria you really have to wonder where the hell is the Arab League in this terrorism-civil war drama? Why is it the Middle East expects and blames the U. S. and the EU for not doing enough to stop Russia? Seriously? Why are the Middle Eastern countries not doing enough to stop Russia and IS? It's their back yard. Why don't the Middle East countries devise their own no-fly zone? Why should it be the U. S. and the EU to do their job? "Da ya think?" it has something to do with Middle East wars are money pits with no good outcome seen for decades?

Just because Putin has recently met with the EU countries about Ukraine doesn't mean a thing. France and Germany and others seem to be convinced of a deadly strategy: Let's cater to a psychopathic dictator and not complain about what Putin is doing in Syria at this conference. We will complain outside of this Ukraine conference as France did. Seriously? Putin sees the EU as weak and easy to manipulate, a psychopath's dream...

A Truth Journal: Brian Williams Returns to the MSNBC Newsroom: Welcome Back!: From Denny: Turns out that friend and boss, Andrew Lauk, over at NBC believes in second chances for good people like Brian Williams. Well, so do I. It's past due time for Brian Williams to come out of the cold and be welcomed back into society. He's paid his dues, suffered embarrassment and financial and status demotion. How much more do the Boo Birds and Jealous Journalists want? Those odious crowds would want blood if the network was stupid enough to give it to them.

Congrats on your comeback, Brian. Ignore the jealous petty journalists in the newsroom. The news industry is filled to overflowing with jealous petty people, just take a glance over at The New York Times, CNN and Fox newsrooms for starters. No surprise they exist at NBC and MSNBC. Two words to all of them: grow up! And, while I'm at it dishing out advice to toxic people: be careful the meanness you visit upon others does not come back to visit your life because it surely will...

Dennys Food and Recipes: Labor Day, Football Tailgating: Check Out Some New Drinks, Appetizer Cheesy Zucchini No-Fry Fries with Smoked Paprika Dip Sauce: From Denny: Ready to try something new for the Labor Day weekend and tailgating season? Audition it on Labor Day and check out your reviews, and, if all goes well, you have some winners for the tailgating season. I know. I know. The conventional wisdom is that you are not supposed to audition something new on your guests but my crowd likes to review. Come on; put a little risk into your life!

I usually cook up standards I know most people enjoy and then introduce a couple of new things for review and comment. It's a conversation starter and since my friends tend to be as opinionated as myself, well, they enjoy weighing in. They even make suggestions to kick it up, tone it down or variations that I might not have considered. Since I value their input it's all done in good fun. For my guests to take home I also make copies of the new recipes with space for them to make notes while we discuss the food.

The first two drinks up for consideration are old standards with new twists: a Planter's Punch and a Bloody Mary. The new twist for the Planter's Punch is that it has some added Camus Cognac with the apple cider, apple juice and pineapple juice. The new twist for the Bloody Mary is the addition of Lucid Absinthe with the spicy bloody mary mix, worchestershire sauce, horseradish, black pepper, celery salt and garlic salt. These two drinks come from Niccole Trzaska at The Liberty Bar in New York City.

This appetizer recipe is from Chef Sara Moulton, one of the busiest TV chefs. Check out this link to her site for online cooking classes, links to her TV shows and awesome easy recipes. Sara has enjoyed a long career: a 25-year stint at Gourmet magazine (which had a run from 1941 - 2009), hosted several Food Network shows for a decade, hosts public TV's "Sara's Weeknight Meals" and has written three cookbooks, one of which is "Sara Moulton's Everyday Family Dinners." Whew! All while raising her own family. It's no wonder she specializes in quick and easy food...

Dennys Food and Recipes: Summer Food: Raspberry Almond Cheesecake Tartlets: From Denny: Do you enjoy cheesecake but want an easier way to make it? Then this recipe is for you. I like cheesecake too but find it too large for just two of us to eat and too time consuming to make unless I plan on entertaining a hungry crowd.

A springform pan is an absolute must to make a proper cheesecake - and the patience of a saint to leave the oven door cracked open as it slowly cools down for hours so you can hopefully avoid it cracking straight down the middle like an ugly scar. Usually, I've been pretty lucky over the years. Of course, when I wasn't lucky it was evident that a wonderful fruit topping like blueberry or strawberry could hide a multitude of sins just like gravy on a screwed up dinner. :)...

Dennys Food and Recipes: Summer Food: Cream Cheese Pastry Blueberry-Apple Cobbler and Traditional Blueberry Cobbler: From Denny: Blueberries. The awesome blue food we all love. So, I went hunting for something interesting in the cobbler department for us this week. The first recipe is from our local newspaper, a blueberry cobbler made with a cream cheese pastry and a filling that consists of a combination of blueberries, apple and lemon. A cream cheese pastry always tastes great with a fruit filling, especially blueberries! It's a simple and straightforward pastry recipe with flour, salt and butter but also with cream cheese and a bit of orange juice added to the pastry to spike up the flavor.

The filling calls for fresh blueberries, an apple and lemon juice and lemon zest. While this recipe calls for sugar I often substitute brown rice syrup or agave syrup in its place for a lower glycemic index than refined white sugar. Try it half sugar and half agave as an idea, whatever you like at your house, just try experimenting until you find that sweet spot Goldilocks zone for your taste buds!

The second recipe is a traditional blueberry cobbler made in a 9-inch square baking pan like you do for brownies and is from a local Louisiana blueberry grower. When a recipe calls for margarine, well, I'm no fan of margarine, so I use clarified butter. If you don't have the time to make your own clarified butter it's now available in grocery stores as I saw a jar in Trader Joe's just last week.

Also note that I use "Tablespoon" and "teaspoon" as an easier read so you don't get confused by small type - by writing it out instead of an abbreviation and also capitalizing Tablespoon. There have been those moments when I was busy and scan read a recipe only to make a mistake with too much or too little of an ingredient so I changed all my recipes to reflect what I do here on my food blogs. The whole point is to enjoy a good food experience!

Oh, and the Denny Lyon Gifts ads are from my Cafe Press store. The profits go to my two favorite charities: the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank that feeds half of Louisiana and St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital that has helped thousands of children on the Gulf Coast. After all, should anyone go hungry in America? Should any parent have to emotionally stress and experience financial ruin because their child got sick? Thank you to those of you supporting my gift store effort!...

(As these articles post this week I'll add the links, so check back often!)

You pour the melted butter over the batter without stirring and layer loads of blueberries on top and then bake to get this marbling effect.

Make sure you are using aluminum free baking powder, an easy find at most grocery stores these days and always at health food stores like Trader Joe's. You could also substitute agave syrup for the white sugar to lower the glycemic index. I'm considering trying it with brown rice syrup to see how it performs so I'll let you know later how that turns out. (First we have to finish off my experiment with a rice pudding recipe that came out quite well.)

While this recipe calls for Louisiana blueberries there are plenty of other blueberry growers with very delicious berries in Texas, Mississippi and California and other states too. Since blueberries have grown in popularity more farmers have turned to growing them. Get what is local to you so the berries will be fresh. Buy USA berries which supports workers and farmers in America.

This is a small pan cake (9" x 9") so it is suitable for just a snack for a few friends or a couple of people who regularly cook for two - with leftovers. Oh, that's too bad, you mean there might be more to enjoy for breakfast? This would be wonderful at tea time or a coffee break snack at the office or home as this little cake will travel well for picnics and gatherings too. It would even taste great chilled for the hot summer weather. Blueberries are awesome and healthy!

Oh, and a big thank you to those of you supporting Denny Lyon Gifts by purchasing products like aprons, t-shirts, pillows, bedding and mugs. My profits (paid by Cafe Press) go to the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank here in Louisiana that basically feeds half of the state and also to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital, two of my favorite charities that help a lot of children. Who should go hungry in America? Who should experience financial ruin because your child gets sick? So, I started up my small store at Cafe Press for some creative fun of designing and to give to these charities. So, again, thank you for your support. You guys rock!...

Dennys Food and Recipes: Summer Food: Easy Blueberry Heaven Trifle

Dennys Food and Recipes: Summer Food: Easy Blueberry Heaven Trifle: From Denny: Could this week get any hotter? With 100 degree highs and a 115 degree heat index this summer is turning out to be a real scorcher. It brings to mind a Downton Abbey episode when Lord Grantham was arm-twisted by the women of the family to quit drinking for six months until his health issue was confirmed or denied: "Good God, man! Steady on!" Any time we don't like something or want to complain at our house that's our new go-to phrase for laughs.

Cooling summer desserts come to mind when the weather is uncooperatively too hot. In fact, before the age of air conditioning it was custom to never eat a hot meal. The vegetables were as cold as the meats on the plate. You still see some of that mindset in places like Greece where the concept of a hot vegetable is considered strange. They boil their vegetables and then chill them before even considering offering them to a guest or family. With this kind of outrageous weather the idea sounds good! It certainly takes the stress off the body for getting too hot.

What?! You've heard enough about the ridiculous hot weather and Greek culture? How about this easy recipe that is kid friendly too that the family could help with this one. This one is easy to assemble as it involves a purchased angel food cake torn into chunks, cream cheese (whipped or not), sweetened condensed milk, a box of Jell-O vanilla pudding, whipping cream, toasted pecans (Louisiana pecans, if you can get them, because they sure are wonderful) and a honking huge quart of fresh blueberries. Remember, this trifle does serve 10 to 12 people. Enjoy!...

Dennys Food and Recipes: Summer Food: Blueberry Lemonade To Beat The Heat: From Denny: Blue food. It's pretty to look at and cooling in this summer heat. Blueberries are the very essence of summer. Did you know the silvery bloom on blueberries is a naturally protective waxy coating?

Most people don't wash them until just when ready to eat. Well, that doesn't work in our house so I pour a large bowl of water, add about 2 Tablespoons of white vinegar and let the entire plastic box and blueberries soak for about 5 minutes to kill bacteria. Drain the entire box well, dry off a bit with a towel and throw back into the fridge. Usually, a reputable grocery store - and even from the farm - they give the berries a quick vinegar wash to brush off leaves and bugs.

We all like to dine on blueberries by the handfuls as snacks, toss them on to the breakfast cereal or yogurt and make breakfast muffins. Here's a new twist: how about blueberries in your homemade lemonade?

This interesting recipe (from our local newspaper food writer) combines two fruit syrups: a blueberry syrup and a lemon syrup. You only use the blueberry syrup to color the lemonade to your preference. The remaining blueberry syrup can be used on pancakes, waffles, toast or even in salad dressings. OK, you got me, this lemonade is so doggone pretty! Great idea for summer entertaining...

Dennys Food and Recipes: BBQ Grilling: 3 Tasty Compound Butters To Compliment Your Recipes

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 15 Aug 2015 00:54:00 +0000

Dennys Food and Recipes: BBQ Grilling: 3 Tasty Compound Butters To Compliment Your Recipes: From Denny: Whether you are grilling or baking in the oven specially infused butters offer wonderful flavor choices to celebrate your food! Chef Sara Moulton is known for easy recipes that can be done at home with a minimum of fuss. She's also one of my favorite food teachers as she is so relaxed, giving even the novice cook a boost of confidence.

Her first recipe is for an herb butter. Do you have some favorite herbs that you just can't cook without? This recipe is all about your favorite combination of herbs, though she does suggest a few to get you started. While you could substitute a Vidalia sweet onion in place of shallots, well, shallots are that much sweeter, and, oh, so wonderfully flavorful so try to find them in your area. Shallots, a favorite of classically trained chefs, are usually in plentiful supply in the spring and summer months, often into autumn.

Are you more in the mood for a citrus butter? Chef Moulton combines the zest and juice of lemons and limes for a sublime summer taste that everyone will enjoy.

How about something more substantial for those manly men who enjoy a great grilled steak? Oh, this recipe is for you! Combine this steak butter with Dijon mustard, a fresh finely minced garlic clove and Worchestershire sauce (we prefer Lea & Perrins at our house though you could use the brand you like),

If you can't grill outside just use a grill pan on the stovetop to get those prized grill marks, turn it over and place it in the oven to finish. When ready to plate make sure the steak plate has been heating in the oven. Place a large slice of this steak butter onto the plate and then place the steak on top of the butter. Talk about awesome taste as the butter melts on the very hot plate, spilling out like a gravy for your steak! That's the method all the old steakhouses of the 1940's and 1950's used before restaurants went to open charcoal or wood fired grilling.

The beauty of all these butters is that all you have to do is roll them into logs and wrap in plastic wrap and aluminum foil and freeze until ready to use. Just slice off the amount you need and return it to the freezer. How simple is that? You can make these up way ahead of when you will need them...

A Truth Journal: GOP and Rubio 2016: Women Should Suck It Up And Enjoy Results of Rape And Incest?

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 13 Aug 2015 22:28:00 +0000

A Truth Journal: GOP and Rubio 2016: Women Should Suck It Up And Enjoy Results of Rape And Incest?: From Denny: Does any one in this country actually promote or like abortion? No. Even as a liberal I agree with my Republican voting friends that abortion is disgusting and disrespectful of humanity. But the way the Republican Party screams about the abortion issue does not solve the problem and has not solved the problem in over 40 years. Obviously, the Republicans do not know how to lead the country - just stir up passions in cultural scream-offs just to win yet another election. After the elections all the politicians sit on their hands doing nothing until the next election cycle of what will be broken promises.

Planned Parenthood has some serious problems with those insensitive doctors caught on video discussing the marketing of fetal body parts. Of course, the calculating GOP strategists are promoting that video to rally the cause to defund Planned Parenthood - that also happens to do a lot of good for women's health issues in other areas like cancer testing. Defunding Planned Parenthood is not the solution that will change the need for abortions.

The real questions every voter should be asking about that Planned Parenthood video is who the hell are these medical science creeps that are demanding said fetal parts be given for free or sold to them for their research and development of who knows what? How pervvy can you get? What exactly are they doing with that fetal tissue? Why is there a "market" for fetal tissue, hearts and lungs in the first place? Does this situation have anything to do with a severe shortage of donor organs in China with wealthy Chinese willing to pay any price to procure those organs?...

Dennys Food and Recipes: BBQ Grilling: Try Grilled Summer Cooling Puttanesca Gazpacho

Dennys Food and Recipes: BBQ Grilling: Try Grilled Summer Cooling Puttanesca Gazpacho: From Denny: Fancy a cold soup to counter the ridiculous hot heat of the summer? Gazpacho is everyone's favorite, especially when entertaining for large groups. This version involves grilling all those delicious veggies like red bell peppers, poblano peppers, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers and a head of fresh garlic.

Let the charred peppers cool before removing the skins and the inside seeds and membranes. Squeeze the cooled soft garlic cloves out of their papery skins and into the food processor. Add the delicious flavors of capers, Kalamata olives, anchovies, olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

Make the soup as chunky or as smooth as you like. Chill well before serving. To serve, garnish with yummy ricotta cheese and fresh torn herbs like cilantro and basil. Then sit back and wait for the compliments to arrive!...

Dennys Food and Recipes: BBQ Grilling: Goat Cheese Stuffed Grilled Sweet Potatoes

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 08 Aug 2015 23:16:00 +0000

AP photo: Matthew Mead

Dennys Food and Recipes: BBQ Grilling: Goat Cheese Stuffed Grilled Sweet Potatoes: From Denny: This is a delicious unusual recipe twist for the popular sweet potato. We all know that goat cheese is a low salt and low fat alternative to the regular highly salted - OK, totally yummy - cheeses.

I've tried goat cheese as the soft melting quality cheese in my omelets and found it a bit sour in comparison to my favorite cheddar cheese but eventually created a medley of white cheddar, fontina or mozzarella in addition to just a touch of goat cheese for my favorite blending of flavors..

Yet that slightly tangy sour taste is the perfect healthy complement to the very sugary sticky sweet potato. This recipe also adds fresh thyme and olive oil for aromatic delight and lots of fresh garlic and butter for robust flavor. To sweeten it up a bit the zest of an entire orange is added for that citrus brightness that pairs so very well with sweet potato!

It's advised you slice the sweet potato in thick chunks so it is easy for the thick smear of cheese, oils, herbs and citrus zest to adhere better. If you like your potatoes to have a bit of crispness on the skin, then open up the aluminum foil in the last 10 minutes of grilling to brown and crisp up a bit.

Also note that you will require a microwave to partially bake the potatoes before placing on the grill. This recipe is best done at home instead of at some remote fishing camp with no electricity - like we have so many of here on the Gulf Coast, especially Louisiana. :)

This is such an easy recipe it is kid friendly and a good choice to help teach the kids to learn how to grill by helping you with the prep work. What creative kid would not enjoy smearing a gooey mess onto those sweet potatoes? I rest my case. :) Enjoy!

A Truth Journal: Why is Trump Catching on Fire? What Would His Cabinet Look Like? The Hilarious Lowdown

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Fri, 07 Aug 2015 00:13:00 +0000

A Truth Journal: Why is Trump Catching on Fire? What Would His Cabinet Look Like? The Hilarious Lowdown: From Denny: My fellow media are flabbergasted that billionaire Donald Trump is rising so fast in the Republican polls. The media is so entrenched in their collective bias that they refuse to take his candidacy seriously. Hold on to your hats, folks, because Trump will survive far beyond the summer flavor of the month. Come on; we all know that former President Bill Clinton secretly got him to run as a way to help clean house on the Republican candidates, paving the way for Hillary to win. Well, that strategy just might backfire since Trump is catching on with the disgruntled middle class.

Well, Trump may be stupidly wealthy but he still knows how to talk Middle Class in his brash Brooklyn accent. In fact, Trump reminds me much of the very bold personality of President Teddy Roosevelt. And, he is every bit as passionate about his views, with plenty of real fire in the belly running for President that the American public likes in a presidential candidate. We certainly are not seeing any of that fire in the belly with any other Republican candidates and only with one Democrat candidate, Bernie Sanders...

Well, here's a finger friendly recipe for those chili pepper nibblers and snackers who want to try the latest Shishito pepper sensation in the food world.

The peanut sauce is a medley of awesome flavors: smooth natural peanut butter, red wine vinegar, fresh garlic, fresh ginger, soy sauce and your favorite hot sauce. All that's left to do is add some other good recipes to your party menu like this grilled chicken dunked in that famous Alabama White Sauce!

Dennys Food and Recipes: BBQ Grilling: Butterflied Barbecue Chicken with Alabama White Sauce: From Denny: With all this ridiculous hot weather across the nation we are all left wondering if we are the ones getting grilled! But wait! Time to grill that famous summer BBQ chicken, this time with the Alabama White Sauce becoming so popular.

If you are not familiar with Alabama White Sauce it's based on mayonnaise. Yucky mayonnaise, you say? Hey, all that oil delivers the spicy flavor of this unusual sauce and the mayonnaise taste is completely changed by the following: There is plenty of cider vinegar and lemon juice to cut the oil and the addition of cayenne pepper, black pepper and horseradish definitely spices up the taste. The recipe for this sauce follows so you can make your own...
