A Lady's Ruminations

"Jane was firm where she felt herself to be right." -Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

Name:
Location: United States

I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

Attention All Washington State Republicans!

From the WSRP:

A call to action from Diane Tebelius, Chairman! Stop the Democrats and their big spending spree budget!

Tomorrow the State Senate is expected to vote on the Christine Gregoire and the Democrats’ supplemental operating budget (ESSB 6386). Amazingly, this is the largest supplemental budget in state history!

The proposed budget would help squander the state’s $1.6 billion surplus by creating over $468 million in new spending! This is no surprise. Since she took office in January 2005, Christine Gregoire and the Democrats have increased state spending by an astounding 17.4%!

We need your help to stop the Democrats from going hog wild!

Contact your local State Senator and tell them to not support this year’s supplemental budget, ESSB 6386!
