OT one more new word

I beg your pardon, I am NOT late ... I just want to you to run *again*!!!

How can you even entertain the thought of "giving up?!!" We need you.
America needs you! Think of the humanity ... the causes ... the
opportunities to shop for fabric in foreign countries at taxpayer's
expense!!

And of course, you could give tax incentives to quilters ... and to those
who are thinking about quilting (no taxes this year if you finish two
quilts)!!

A sewing machine in every hobby room and 2 yards of fabric in every stash!!
(with deep apologies to Roosevelt -- I think)

Please! Pretty, pretty, pretty, please?!

You are abit late, don't you think? I WAS running for Prezzie when Miz
Polly was 'expecting'. My Campaign Manager decided NOT to come to the US
to
help me out---so I gave up.

Not just *your* opinion. This go, it's definitely a case of choosing
between
three evils.
*sigh*

We need a quilter to run for prezzie. Ummm ... Butterfly?? Helloooo??
You're
already "going on the road" -- why can't you turn your trip into
stumping???

Please??

Interesting to see the definitions given. I have always heard and
used
it with a slightly different meaning: fear or intolerance of
'foreigners'. I just checked in my dictionary, and that is the
meaning
given there, too. It does put a slightly different complexion on the
word, especially when used politically.
Words are so fascinating - especially the 'derived from Greek' ones.

I did read your other answers, Polly!
Interesting to see the definitions given. I have always heard
and
used
it with a slightly different meaning: fear or intolerance of
'foreigners'. I just checked in my dictionary, and that is the
meaning
given there, too. It does put a slightly different complexion on
the
word, especially when used politically.
Words are so fascinating - especially the 'derived from Greek'
ones.

Nothing has been the same since that house fell on my sister.

Yeah...I'd like mine to be invisible...especially when I drop a word as in
my last message. Geez. "as dumb as THEY think".

Oh, Lordy, I really don't want to think about some of the things my kids'd
see that I wrote!! Some things should just die gracefully, and my usenet
scribblings definitely fit that category!!!

Howzabout you??!

as
think!

So far as Mr Spitzer, one can only assume that the lady is very
very
good at what she does. (G)

Now we are going to have a new governor here in NY.
He looks like he may be something of an improvement.

NightMist
voted for a oddball candidate in that election because I thought
both
the main players were jerks

Election Day here was very strange.
It began while I was applying my new makeup (mineral) and
listening
to
Rick and Bubba. They were talking about China killing over a half
million
cats in preparation for the Olympics.
Then there were exit polls being taken at the voting
precincts.
These
were certainly voluntary - you only answered questions if you
wanted
to.
There was great attention placed on racism and xenophobia. They
were
very
curious about voters' concern with Obama's middle name.
Meanwhile, there was a great deal of speculation about why
Spitzer
would
need a call girl for two hours.
What a day.
I like the new makeup. Polly

That's the definition I found too, Patti, and is most likely the
one
that
applies. Although I don't know how it was used, it may have
been
used
more loosely in context. Polly?
