Burrell, is this weekend too soon?
I will have to get back to you. I can't recall, but we may be going to San Diego this weekend. Alternately, it may be that only DH is going so he can pick up a dresser/vanity set for Franny's new room.
Loyalty Day? Egad, so now he's making up new holidays in order to bolster his ratings?
Allyson, where did you find that? My first reaction is that it's fake (parody, whatever).
May 1st has apparently been Loyalty Day since the 1930's. [eta: First celebrated unofficially as "Americanism Day," officially made Loyalty Day by Eisenhower in 1958.]
Ah. I've checked a shitload of political blogs - no mention of Loyalty Day.
OK, I see it there.
I thought it was a new thing, so I was expecting outrage. Sorry.
What today REALLY is, is the 75th Anniversary of The Empire State Building. WOO HOO!

Really? Really?! Dang, Loyalty Day has a piss poor publicist.
Burrell, tell me when you find out your plans, and let's arrange a little something.

Because "Americanism" in the 1930s meant "immigrant bashing," and everyone knows that Republicans don't engage in that sort of thing.
