I posted a thread about anti-Semitism in GD P.
For those who don't want to wade through the muck here's the link:
Dog Whistles- an Anti-Semitism Primer (a timely repost)
A good read and I think we're going to need to stand up to this kind of attack more often as the primaries progress.
If you see a post about Bernie or any other Jewish politician that needs to be alerted on include the link, it may help get some of them hidden.

OT: my horses are feeling frisky now that it's cooler. They're out there running around playing right now.
How's your girl?
But imagine a ballet where two horses slowly circle each other, face off, rear up and then run away like they're having the time of their lives, kicking and bucking and snorting.
It's amazing to watch.
I am so sorry you're losing your farm and lost your beloved horses. It was courageous of you to let them go to good homes instead of waiting and having to risk sending them to someone who wouldn't take care of them.
I wish I could say something to make you feel better but I know how meaningless words are at times like this.
Just know I'll be thinking of you and if you ever need to talk I'm here.
Take care of yourself.
Except these kids weigh 1100 and 1500 lbs.
When they come running it's best to stay out of the way.
Otherwise...she's beautiful and full of herself!
I love it when they feel frisky like that!
She still doesn't like her new water tank because it's SHINY and makes NOISE when she accidentally hits it with her hoof.
Mine is full of talk about my being late, or not enough juicy grass or burrs in her coat...one time when I had them boarded she came to me talking, moving her head like they do and I was grooming her while she kept talking. I decided she was trying to tell me something so I started walking around her and found a pretty good sized piece of stick in her neck! 
I had to find pliers to pull it out! She stood stock still and let me help her...they amaze me!
Shiny is suspicious!
The Morgan mare I had when I was a kid let me know she was tangled in an old roll of barbed wire, then she stood perfectly still while my dad and I took it apart with pliers and cutters. It took an hour because it was so rusted.
Now some horses would literally tear themselves apart if that happened but not her. And I'd only had her a couple of months before that happened.
Shiny is suspicious, you know that low blowing snort they make when they're confused and irritated? She's still doing that to the tank and we've had it all summer!
I'd say it's Morgan's but I had an Appy that was the same so I'm not sure why unless it's the relationship with the people in their life. 
Morgan's are chatty like Siamese cats.
Wow that's a long time to be blowing about a water tank...although my gelding would blow at the same tree stump no matter how many times he saw it..no jigging but had to register a complaint..never trust that tree stump!
There's a rock on one of the trails she treats the same way, she'll go past it but she's always expecting it to jump up and bite her.
That flight instinct is strong, which makes it even more amazing that they trust us so much.
And Morgans are the best!
She's a former stray, used to rough it outdoors, now lives a good indoor-outdoor life, but she notices when things have been moved, refuses to interact with anything that isn't just right. Princess and the pea. I figured maybe she was born a Virgo.
In total agreement that horses are magnificent creatures. I especially love their soft soft noses.
I feel sorry for people who don't have animal family members, they bring so much to our lives.
Hell, they're teachers. Each one has taught me something I needed to learn. Am glad your life is similarly enriched, bmus. 
All the Democratic candidates should voice their disapproval. 
I posted a similar one in GD after the Diane Rehm incident but it got even less traffic.
But if it helps open even one pair of eyes it's still a success.
