The 30 Best Quotes From The 2012 Republican Convention
Written By : John Hawkins
August 31, 2012
30) “Self esteem comes from achievements. Not from lax standards and false praise.” — Condi Rice
29) “Tonight that American flag is still there on the moon. And I don’t doubt for a second that Neil Armstrong’s spirit is still with us: that unique blend of optimism, humility and the utter confidence that when the world needs someone to do the really big stuff, you need an American.” — Mitt Romney
28) “(My father) stood behind a bar in the back of the room all those years, so one day I could stand behind a podium in the front of a room. That journey, from behind that bar to behind this podium, goes to the essence of the American miracle — that we’re exceptional not because we have more rich people here. We’re special because dreams that are impossible anywhere else, come true here.” — Marco Rubio
27) “Fifty-five years ago, when my dad was a penniless teenager, thank God some well-meaning bureaucrat didn’t put his arm around him and say ‘let me take care of you.’” –- Ted Cruz.
26) “None of us have to settle for the best this administration offers – a dull, adventureless journey from one entitlement to the next, a government-planned life, a country where everything is free but us.” — Paul Ryan
25) “And on a personal note – a little girl grows up in Jim Crow Birmingham – the most segregated big city in America – her parents can’t take her to a movie theater or a restaurant – but they make her believe that even though she can’t have a hamburger at the Woolworth’s lunch counter – she can be President of the United States and she becomes the Secretary of State. Yes, America has a way of making the impossible seem inevitable in retrospect. But of course it has never been inevitable – it has taken leadership, courage and an unwavering faith in our values.” — Condi Rice
24) “With all their attack ads, the President is just throwing away money…and he’s pretty experienced at that.” — Paul Ryan
23) “The only just government is the government that serves its citizens, not itself.” — Cardinal Timothy Dolan
22) “President Obama has thrown allies like Israel under the bus, even as he has relaxed sanctions on Castro’s Cuba. He abandoned our friends in Poland by walking away from our missile defense commitments, but is eager to give Russia’s President Putin the flexibility he desires, after the election. Under my administration, our friends will see more loyalty, and Mr. Putin will see a little less flexibility and more backbone.” — Mitt Romney
21) “They’ve got a Jobs Council that never meets. A Democratic Senate that doesn’t act. A President who doesn’t believe and a Vice President who won’t stop talking. They just don’t get it.” — Tom Stemberg
20) “Here is their plan. Whistle a happy tune while driving us off a fiscal cliff as long as they are behind the wheel of power when we fall.” — Chris Christie
19) “I read somewhere that Mitt and I have a ‘storybook marriage.’ Well, in the storybooks I read, there were never long, long, rainy winter afternoons in a house with five boys screaming at once. And those storybooks never seemed to have chapters called MS or Breast Cancer. A storybook marriage? No, not at all. What Mitt Romney and I have is a real marriage.” — Ann Romney
18) “I’ve come to realize that Barack Obama is the tattoo president. Like a big tattoo, it seemed cool when you were young. But later on, that decision doesn’t look so good, and you wonder: what was I thinking? But the worst part is you’re still going to have to explain it to your kids.” — Tim Pawlenty
17) “(Obama) hasn’t been working to earn reelection, he’s been working to earn a spot on the PGA tour!” — Mitch McConnell
16) “You see, Mr. President – real leaders don’t follow polls. Real leaders change polls.” — Chris Christie
15) “The man assumed office almost four years ago – isn’t it about time he assumed responsibility?” — Paul Ryan
14) “My working poor parents told me that I could do better. They taught me that I was as good as anybody else. And it never occurred to them to tell me that I could just rest comfortably and wait for good old Uncle Sugar to feed me, lead me and then bleed me.” — Mike Huckabee
13) “It all started off with stirring speeches, Greek columns, the thrill of something new. Now all that’s left is a presidency adrift, surviving on slogans that already seem tired, grasping at a moment that has already passed, like a ship trying to sail on yesterday’s wind.” — Paul Ryan
12) “You know there is something wrong with the kind of job he has done as president when the best feeling you had was the day you voted for him.” — Mitt Romney
11) “They believe in teachers’ unions. We believe in teachers.” — Chris Christie
10) “You, me…we own this country. Politicians are employees of ours….And when somebody does not do the job, we got to let them go.” — Clint Eastwood
9) “When you hear the party that glorified Occupy Wall Street blast success; when you hear them minimize the genius of the men and women who make jobs out of nothing, is that what you teach your children about work?” — Artur Davis
8) “Mom and Dad were married 64 years. And if you wondered what their secret was, you could have asked the local florist – because every day Dad gave Mom a rose, which he put on her bedside table. That’s how she found out what happened on the day my father died – she went looking for him because that morning, there was no rose.” — Mitt Romney
7) “Ronald Reagan used to say America was a city on a hill. Under Obama, America is becoming a tent city with people waiting in line for government handouts.” – Yash Wadhwa
6) “Barack Obama’s failed us. But look, it’s understandable. A lot of people fail at their first job.” — Tim Pawlenty
5) “Well I’m sure now that the press is going to tell you (Mitt Romney) isn’t perfect. Now my friends for the past four years, we’ve tried the one that the press thought was perfect and that hasn’t worked out all that well for us.” — Mike Huckabee
4) “The EPA is now the ‘Employment Prevention Agency.’” — Bob McDonnell
3) “In 1923 there were no government benefits for immigrants except one: Freedom!” — Rick Santorum
2) “President Obama promised to begin to slow the rise of the oceans and heal the planet. MY promise…is to help you and your family.” — Mitt Romney
1) “The Democrats say we ought to give Barack Obama credit for trying. That sounds like the nonsense of giving every kid a trophy for showing up. Friends, we’re talking about leading the country, not playing on a third-grade soccer team! I realize this is the man who got a Nobel Peace Prize for what he would potentially do, but in the real world, you get the prize for producing something, not just promising it.” — Mike Huckabee

Guest Post! "What is Your DOg's Poo Telling You!"
A few weeks ago, WHN received an email from a writer at dog.com asking if WHN would allow a guest post on our blog. We of course said yes, as we though that it would be a great idea! Below is the original email and following the email is the article itself. We are not being compensated in any way simply wanted to get the word out and also to help this budding writer!
1) Hi!
Just stopping by and saying that you have an awesome blog! My name is Kaitlin Falatovich and I am a content writer for dog.com.
I was looking at pet blogs when I came across yours, and let me just
say, it made my day! Really enjoyed all of the pictures of the quilts.
They were absolutely amazing!
Hope you are having a great day, and I look forward to hearing from you soon!

What Is Your Dog’s Poo Telling You?
Doggie parents love their children;
there is no doubt about that. But the last thing any parent wants to
do is examine doggie poop! Admit it folks, as soon as your precious
pup is done doing their business, you quickly scoop it up and dispose
of it. Right?
But what some parents don’t know is
that your dog’s poop can serve as a warning for possible
disorders/infections that they might have. * Various factors such as
the color, texture, and amount that your dog goes a day are ways to
see if there is a problem.
First, the color of the poop can be a big factor in
determining if your dog may have some type of health problem. Light,
whiteish waste could be a warning sign for liver disease. Because
your dog cannot produce enough bile to break down food properly, not
all the nutrients that your dog is taking in are being used. Also, if
the stool is grey terrible smelling it can also be a sign of poor
digestion.
If your dog is experiencing waste that is black in color, that could
indicate internal bleeding/internal bleeding of the upper digestive
tract. These types of stools are some of the most dangerous. Also a
cause for distress is bloody stool. This can be evidence that there
is bleeding in the colon. If you see this type of stool, DON’T
FREAK OUT! First backtrack and try to remember what your dog has
eaten in the couple days. It may be something that they have
consumed. After that, regardless of what your findings are, consult a
vet just to be safe!
Something else to look for in your pooch’s poo is consistency.
If you’re the stools look watery or loose, it is can be the sign of
a bowel irritation/infection. The looser that the stool is, the most
advanced the infection is.
If it seems to be a little mushy, this can be a sign that your dog has a food allergy or intestinal parasites. If you consult a vet and they rule out any time of parasites but the stool continues to look that way, try testing your dog for food allergies.
If it seems to be a little mushy, this can be a sign that your dog has a food allergy or intestinal parasites. If you consult a vet and they rule out any time of parasites but the stool continues to look that way, try testing your dog for food allergies.
And finally if the food is in relatively that same shape it was
when it was feed to the dog, this might be a sign that your dog is
overeating.
These factors along others can turn your dog’s poo into a crystal
ball waiting for you to look into it. Taking a few seconds before
tossing your pups poop into the trash could help prevent a serious
illness from getting worse.

*It is always good to consult your
Veterinarian about problems that your pet may have. This article is
only a way for a pet owner to take precautions. Do not take it into
your own hands. It can be dangerous for your pooch!

We got MAIL!
 | |
| our backyard neighbor, Barney |
It has been quite hot here- in the mid 90s and the AC hasn't worked since we moved in! It was repaired last week and broke again and a repairman was unable to come until yesterday and can't fix it until parts are ordered! Maybe it will be fixed by next Wednesday! At least we have a floor fan and Dad bought another one last night to use in the bedroom- it has been too hot for our night time swalk but we get our morning one in! WHN and Dad are almost done emptying the card board movers boxes, and should have that done this weekend! Then they get to conquer the plastic crates! The family room/tv room is set up- now all they have left is to paint the panelling yellow to make the room look nice and bright- we spend most of our day in here and it is right next to the kitchen! WHN's sewing room is set up and now she just needs to find some of her fabrics so she can get started on the Slimmer Purrs Christmas stockings, and a couple of quilts promised for auction for the WDA and Mona and Weenie in texas, and to finally start talking/blogging and sewing the two quilts for the family in Idaho who lost 14 dachsies in that house fire back in June!
Our car goes into the shop Monday and next week both WHN and Dad get their MO drivers licenses! We have a special surprise about that to share, but not until we have photos! Tomorrow they go to Sears to have their eyes examined- maybe Sears runs a special and includes heads? Just sayin! Also, our new full size refrigerator arrives Monday!
We have been busy and have kept WHN on her toes, as you can see! At least she isn't slacking off about feeding us on time!

TROUBLE! SHILOH DON'T READ THIS!
We the DWM have been settling in nicely into our new neighborhood- lots of other dogs but no other dachsies for us to meet. Yesterday we took the peeps on a swalk around the neighborhood (that is a sniff walk to the uninitiated) and introduced ourselves to all and sundry. After we got home (Dad carried Anna Rose for the last half of the walk- she was glistening and panting- girls don't do either!), we met our backyard neighbor- a huge male Beagle! Tasha went crazy thinking that her beloved Shiloh had flown in to surprise her, but it seems that Shiloh has competition. Tasha had gotten herself so worked up over the beagle, whose name we still don't know, that WHN had to carry her inside to chill out. Yikes- what will Shiloh do now? We spent the rest of the day exploring the house looking for new napping spots and snoopervising the unpacking of the boxes- the kitchen is almost done! WHN needs more supervision than ever! Dad had to go into work this morning at 4 AM- Anna Rose and Tasha were shocked at the nerve of some people, interrupting their beauty sleep, but WHN and Chip just rolled back over and started snoring again as Dad left. She got up on time and took us for another swalk, this time Anna rode in Thai's old camouflage command post while Tasha and Chip let the neighborhood know who was in charge. Then breakfast and a morning snooze.
WHN would like to thank BLogville for voting for her quilts in the Pets on Quilts contest- she did not win in either category but some great dogs and cats did win. BLOGVILLE does have a winner- Newby, MIlo and Dixie's mom Shelle of Simpatico Dreams won a collection of toys, just for voting! http://lilypadquilting.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-winners-of-pets-on-quilts-2012-show.html

We're Back! Meet us in St Louis!
We survived! What a move!- the packers took two days to box up all of WHn's stuff and the loaders put it all on the van last Friday and we left Ohio at 4:15 that afternoon, arriving at our hotel in St Louis at 2:30 the next morning. We went to Dad's new office on Saturday and then went to our new house and spent some time there! We love the new house that Dad found for us! The car was packed to the gills and WHN did most of the driving since Dad worked so hard for us! He held the girls while she drove and Chip helped her drive! The basement is huge! two separate sections and a storage room! WHN drove us to the house early MOnday, around 7 and the moving van was already here! The driver had spent the night in the van! He had a beautiful Australian Shepherd dog with him, and he knew all about being "owned"! The truck was unloaded by six o'clock that night and we were back at the hotel for one more night of fun and games- this was Anna Rose's and Tasha's first time in a hotel and they were good (Chip is an old pro at the travel game) Sunday after Mass, Dad took all of us to the Arch in St Louis- it is HUGE! Next weekend we are scoping out the BUdweiser factories for Puddles!

Pets on Quilts 2012- Dogs on Quilts/ Dog themed quilts and ART quilt entries

| ART QUILT CATEGORY- White Dog Army quilt- five American Eskimo portraits |
 | |
| DOGS ON QUILTS CATEGORY- Sarge and his quilt |
 | |
| ART QUILT CATEGORY- Sarge and his quilt |
 | |
| Quilt inspiration for Sarge's quilt |
 | |
| DOGS ON QUILTS ENTRY -MeeMoo's quilted placemat |
First up is the White Dog Army Quilt- this quilt was a labor of love, as it was commissioned right around the time of the Fearless Five fire in Texas. The mom of the WDA graciously allowed that quilt to take precedence and the WDA quilt came to life in February of 2012. Miss Sue sent WHN photos of the five WDA (There are now six WDA pack members!) and WHN and Dad went to work- searching for the perfect fabrics to match the inspirational photographs. The final quilt consisted of six portrait panels- five American Eskimo portraits and a representation of the world with the words, Dona Nobis Pacem machine quilted onto it. The main panel was then machine embroidered with five Eskimo dogs, one for each of these darlings, who are our bestest friends in the world!
Next up is the tapestry/quilt that was commissioned by the Mayor of Blogville, Frankie, of his cussin, Sarge, the Chief of Police in Blogville. Sarge is one tough hombre and it shows in his quilt. The inspiration was the header photo from his blog, and it truly does look like Sarge!
Then we have the Amber Da Weenie quilted placemat line- representing this line we have two placemats commissioned by Ruthie of K9 Katastophie- of Meemoo and Brodie. MeeMoo left us for the Rainbow Bridge this year and she is sorely missed but her placemat has been a great reminder for her peeps of her beauty. MeeMoo's quilt was a Christmas gift and Brodie's quilt was a Mother's Day gift.
Following the Amber Da Weenie quilted placemat entries is the project that started it all- the Mayor Frankie Furter Price quilt! WHN created this yellow and black quilt based upon a caricature portrait of His Honor, as a thank you to the Price family for their kindness when Dad was first laid off. She never expected the quilt to be so popular that she would be commissioned to make matching placemats for Frankie's Mom for Christmas, or the commission for the Sarge tapestry! WHN made matching pillows of both Frankie and Ernie, his little brother, to go with the placemats! THEN the Mayor himself commissioned a quilt of his lovely brides, Ruby and Penny! This blue quilt , three of the quilted placemats, and the two pillows are in the photo WHN likes to call- Where's Frankie? (Frankie's yellow quilt is now in Canada- a Christmas gift for his wives!)
The final quilt representation is a red and black quilt which was commissioned by the blogger extraordinaire behind two of our favorite blogs, Dakota's Den and Cody's Cat Chat. This red and black quilt is of two Mikis, a relatively new breed of dog and was a wedding gift for her step daughter. The subjects of the quilt are posing with the quilt in the picture.
As Blogville knows, WHN has also made other quilts in memory of those who have gone to the Rainbow Bridge- With the exception of MeeMoo, WHN chose not to show these items for the purpose of entering a contest. (MeeMoo's quilt was made as a Christmas gift and long before she crossed the Rainbow Bridge, which is why it is included here)
We hope that you enjoy these quilts and take time to vote!
