William 'Bill' Cumming,
celebrity in the local art scene and longest-standing member of 'The
Northwest School' died Nov. 22, 2010 at age 93.
Hello 'Pussy' it's Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and Pippi Longstocking:
You blamed Congress on Thursday for the United States’ poor relationship with Russia, a day after you signed sanctions legislation that you said was flawed and unconstitutional.
In a Twitter message, you described America’s relationship with Russia as “at an all-time & very dangerous low.”
Should I remain in bed, leave my country or fight against the dragon?

I adore William Cumming's outstanding artwork but it's too expensive for my budget.
His description of Betty MacDonald's character is a masterpiece.
William Cumming was a very good friend of Betty MacDonald fan club founder Wolfgang Hampel.
Both - Betty MacDonald and Wolfgang Hampel have the most wonderful friends.
I'm a bit jealous because I would like to have friends like Betty MacDonald fan club honor members Mr. Tigerli and our beloved 'italian' Betty MacDonald, artist and author Letizia Mancino.
William Cumming is part of Wolfgang Hampel's project 'Vita Magica'.
Wolfgang Hampel's stories and satirical poems will be published in several languages for his many fans from all over the world.
I hate dictators in politics and in my private life because they are stupid and childish.
We should laugh about them but sometimes it's very difficult to do this.

WASHINGTON
— President Trump blamed Congress on Thursday for the United States’
poor relationship with Russia, a day after he signed sanctions
legislation that he said was flawed and unconstitutional.
In a Twitter message, Mr. Trump described America’s relationship with Russia as “at an all-time & very dangerous low.”
The
new law, which also includes sanctions on Iran and North Korea, limits
Mr. Trump’s ability to change restrictions on Russia and is a reflection
of bipartisan concern that Mr. Trump would ease punishments for the
Kremlin’s annexation of Crimea and meddling in the 2016 presidential election.
In blaming Congress for the poor relations, Mr. Trump omits assigning
responsibility to President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia for his role in
Crimea, for violating a landmark arms control treaty with the deployment
of a new cruise missile and for interference in elections in the United
States and Europe.
Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona and a strong supporter of the sanctions bill, disagreed with the president.
Several
congressional committees and a special counsel are investigating
whether there was any coordination between the Kremlin and Mr. Trump’s
campaign advisers to influence the 2016 election to benefit Mr. Trump.
The president has called the investigations a “witch hunt.”
On
Wednesday, the Russian prime minister, Dmitri A. Medvedev, declared the
“end to hope for the improvement of our relations” and mocked Mr. Trump
as having been forced to sign the sanctions into law.
“The
Trump administration has demonstrated total impotence, handing over
executive functions to Congress in the most humiliating way possible,”
Mr. Medvedev wrote on Facebook. He added that “the American
establishment has totally outplayed Trump” with the goal “to remove him
from power.”
The
same day Mr. Trump signed the sanctions bill, Vice President Mike Pence
was in the Balkan nation of Montenegro, reaffirming the United States’
commitment to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Montenegro joined
the alliance in June, a move that incensed Moscow. Mr. Pence’s tone on
Russia was more assuring to NATO members than that of Mr. Trump, who
once called NATO “obsolete” but has since praised the alliance.
